What are you doing this weekend??

“cool pooch Steve!”

“:-)

Thanks. She's part dingo and we think part kelpie or queensland heeler.

I've seen her change direction in midair while chasing a rabbit.”

“well steve, we WERE going to drive out there during the summer, but that $$ in savings is going to saving my dog's life instead. Won't be having a vacation this year.

You have a very pretty dog. Looks very friendly :)”

“What going on with your dog?

I know what ya mean about spending your money on your dog though. We've gone without a few times to get our animals taken care of.”

“Her kidneys and she has tumors (non cancerous) that HAVE to be removed. One is in her chest affecting her breathing.

We;ve cought the kidney thing in time to take care of it so she should live a good long life---she's 10 now.



Can't let a good dog down :)
Just have to get the tumors out. Surgery schedualed wedensday. Theya re going to flush her kidneys good too at the same time.

“The best gift we can give our animals is to make them family and give them the best home we can.

You and Mike can be proud.

Good thoughts and prayers to ya.”

“Banner Elk and Valle Cruces rock!

I love Western Carolina.”

“I'm on the other side of the state this weekend, visiting my daughter, her boyfriend, their six cats and Freckles the Wonder Dog. We built a beam out of 8 12 ft 2 x 6's that will provide structural support when I knock some walls out in my home. The trick will be transporting it back to my place and getting it into the house without help. I've got some of that figured out; the rest will have to sort of evolve as I'm doing it:)”

“Welcome to the best state in the south Nimble!!! Where in NC Nimble?

Chili...you were in one of my favorite places...did you go to Mast? Was the pot belly stove blazing? I love how the floors creak!!!”

“Affirmative on Mast.

We spent about an hour at the main store and the Annex.”

“

Here are some pretty flowers for everyone :)”

“I (day) HIKED!!! I went to Hualapai Mountain Park. The trails were all ice so I hiked the service roads. I was high! 7000-8000ft.”

“Tango...I'm going to show my stupidity...you have mountains that high in Arizona?”

“Crazy Gurl, who named you? Lol. I like NC, but it's not even close to where I live.”

“They have them even higher.”

“Ummm....well, see Chili was talking about being in Banner Elk and then I read your post and it said you were on the other end of the state sooooooooooo....in my little brain proccesor I thought you meant other side of NC! I know it is sad...........!”

“Mt. Humphrey is Arizona's tallest mountain, the elevation at the peak is 12633 ft. Flagstaff a large town is at about 7200 ft and I live at 5200 ft.

“That is way cool....just shows how small my world is!!!”

“You can learn something everyday! Even on TT!!”

“I could see how you got that. Just teasin' I think I'd rather be in NC. This looong winter is starting to suck in a major way.”

“And the Grand Canyon is 6000 ft deep at its deepest point! How cool is that!”

“What is the elevation of the floor of the Grand Canyon?”

“The North rim is 9000 and the South is 7000 and the floor is about 2500.”

“I am off for a day hike in the snow.
later gators!”

“My son and I are going hiking tomorrow I hope. It's supposed to be in the upper 50's and sunny. Don't know where we're going, but we are getting OUTSIDE!!!!”

“Trying to move a 300 pound TV down 13 steep steps.”

“Yup. Dayhike on Sunday. Don't know if we'll do it in the snow or below snowline. Might be nice to get in the dirt, maybe do some fishing...”

“baddest phukin red X you'll ever see in the wild. Men have died with out ever getting in sight of the bottom of it.”

“gonna ride my motorcycle for 6 or 7 hours on sunday.”

“Be careful Roam, and have fun. It's a beautiful mountain.”

“Roam sucks. He gets to hike with ducks this weekend.

I dunno what I'm doing.”

“He better not mark his trail with bread crumbs then.
quack quack Roam.

Howdy Doo! There will be reflections in a couple days as requested. Hope all is well with you.”

“Just came back home from snowboarding at Grindelwald.
The day started nice, with some blue sky between the clouds and fresh snow, but not too many people on the slopes. Unfortunately all too soon the clouds rolled in and got stuck between the mountains. Total white out. Temperaters plummeted and it got freezing cold. Finaly I broke my snowboards binding.
Well, at least I have been out and did a few good runs before I had to turn around. I think I really manage to get the hang on snowboarding, to the point where it is less hard work and more fun.

“The hubby and I went to Charlotte to the Bass Pro Shop...I actually had a nice day, got a manicure & did a dab of shopping!

“

“we took fourty boys camping, 15 of them were older boys, the instructors. they got the new Scouts through a lot of the beginning stuff. knots & lashings, first aid, flag ceremonies, map & compass, knife & ax, fire building, cooking, internet safety (brand new for 2008), buddy system, probably other stuff, but i can't remember it all. the boys also got the chance to shoot, archery & bb guns. i worked on the bb gun range helping out the rangemaster. i did three Scoutmaster reviews, 1 for 2nd class and two for 1st class. we had a lot of fun, and BrianSean did a great job as instructor; at least that is what i was told by several adults.”

“We are going the Razorback baseball game this Saturday(we play #8 Georgia) and we rented "The Hogspa" for the game. 50 of our friends and relatives will be joining us. They have this big area by the 3rd base foul pole that no one else can go to and there's a giant hot tub. It's catered and we get to drink. It's a pretty awesome way to watch a game...”

“Only at the University of Arkansas would they have a 50 person hot tub in Left Field.”

“Leaving this Friday after work and heading to Arches NP for a week.
