Mark and I have been busy this weekend. You may recall that on Tuesday I started cutting some of the brushy stuff out of our side yard. I had Friday, Saturday, and today off work, so guess what I did? Continue reading
Mark and I could feel our excitement rising throughout the day today as we got closer and closer to home. Even when I had a migraine, I was glad to be back in familiar territory, and Mark was positively giddy! Tucson was every bit as happy as we’d been hoping all along she’d be. I guess the cats were happy too, but they were too suave to show it. Continue reading
Weather reports lie! The reason Mark and I drove to Denver last night was because the weather forecast said temperatures would remain above freezing, but when we got up this morning, it was snowing. It wasn’t sticking to the ground, but it was piling up on cars and such. Mark said it had been snowing each of the two times he got up with Tucson during the night. When we left Denver at 10:15 this morning, it was 35° out. Continue reading
The weather was the big news today. We left Albuquerque at 10:15 this morning and the temperature was 56°. We had planned to head for Falcon, Colorado today and skirt around Denver, but when we checked the forecast for both locations, Denver was at least going to be above freezing tonight. At one point today, we almost despaired of getting here. Continue reading
We left Tucson, AZ — after having gotten air in the RV tires and gas in the pickup — around 10:45 this morning. The temperature was 78°. It has not been one of our better days… Continue reading
The one thing my father has most wanted Mark and I to see before we leave Tucson (the town, not the dog) is the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum. You may recall we set out to go once before and we got side-tracked by Old Tucson. We realized that it was now or never, so we went this afternoon in honor of Dad. Continue reading
We went to Mark’s church this morning and when we got home, I asked him if we could take a picture of ourselves. Besides my new Easter dress, Mark had gotten me another nice dress last weekend and I wore it today… Continue reading
This morning, I took Tucson back to the Humane Society for her second set of shots and to get a chip put in her. That seemed to have done her in for a good part of the day because she slept all the way home and then slept for several hours in her kennel when we go home. This is when I got a hair-brained idea… Continue reading
It’s amazing the kinds of things you can find at the Tractor Supply Co. Right now, they have their baby chicks, but we went today for a different critter. It’s been a couple weeks since it’s been warm enough to give Tucson a bath, and I think she’s already outgrown the bin we got for washing her in. We have seen signs before that Tractor Supply Co has a dog wash, but we’ve never been able to find it until today. Continue reading
It doesn’t look like I’m going to have any grandchildren, so whenever I get to go to a baby shower, I take advantage of the opportunity. Continue reading
