Last Saturday, Ixchel saw her vet. Does that mean we have another 6 weeks of puppy? Not much has happened since I reported on our snowfall earlier this week. But I promised a 2nd post to make up for not posting last week. When we first got Ixchel we promised each other two things. First,Continue reading “Ixchel Sees the Doctor”

My Family
This post is short. It’s not part of my 2012 effort to post 1 or more posts per week (even though I have said I’d post 2 this week). This is simply news about my family. My brother-in-law, CPT Bruce Hays was killed in Afghanistan in September, 2008. Before he deployed, he bought his wifeContinue reading “My Family”
Travel Plan 1
This plan is coming along much faster than I had expected! The other day, I started looking at prices for tickets to Orlando, FL, so that I could go visit my aunt and uncle and cousin who live there. I was startled to discover that as the spring progresses tickets get more expensive! Scott andContinue reading “Travel Plan 1”
End of an Era
In 2011, I turned 53. Scott turned 49. We’ve been together 15 years, more than a quarter of our lives shared in common pursuit of happiness, forging a common bond. For much of that time, we’ve shared our home with others. After living for two years in apartments in West Omaha, we moved into aContinue reading “End of an Era”
Wyoming Day 2
We still aren’t getting the best cell signal up here. I’m a little surprised by that, because last year it was relatively strong. Unfortunately, this means that we have to play catch as catch can when it comes to uploading. Right now, my cell phone is dead. When it has recharged sufficiently, I’ll plug itContinue reading “Wyoming Day 2”
Wyoming Day 1
Well, we’ve arrived! I was going to call this post “Rendezvous Day 1”. But Rendezvous doesn’t officially start until Wednesday. Scott and I believe in being early! Actually the area where we camp is so beautiful, that we just don’t mind being here a few extra days. Yesterday’s drive went well. We left Council BluffsContinue reading “Wyoming Day 1”
All our bags are packed
Well, we’re getting ready to head out on the road again. In the next 2 hours, we’ll hook up the trailer, and head on down the road. Destination: Somewhere high in the Medicine Bown National Forest of Wyoming! Wanna know where precisely? I’ll tell you! Scott and I’ll be spending the next 8 days withinContinue reading “All our bags are packed”
Insert Boring Post Title Here
It’s really hard for me to believe that so much time has gone by since my last entry here! First just to wrap up from my last entry (entitled “Ouch”), Scott diligently packed my wound every morning, and became an old pro at it in no time! By June 8th, there was nothing left toContinue reading “Insert Boring Post Title Here”
Pictures of our Trip
Since we’re visiting with Scott’s family, there’s not really a lot to write about. We’ve been here in Alamogordo since Tuesday afternoon. We’ve had a great time chatting and getting caught up with Mudda & Pops, Terry, and Bethany & Eleanor! I’ve been trying to be a little helpful getting some of their computer problemsContinue reading “Pictures of our Trip”
Day 8 – From Barstow to Alamogordo
Wait a minute! What happened to Days 4 through 6? Yes, I know, I HEARD you ask that question! In my last blog entry, Scott and I, intrepid explorers that we are, had safely arrived in Barstow, California. Okay, really we had arrived in Yermo, California, which is about 6 miles east of Barstow onContinue reading “Day 8 – From Barstow to Alamogordo”
