Good morning!
Hoping I’ll have a game of Yahtzee or Carcassonne this morning, then going off to exercise at the studio. Following that, I have an online seminar on sleep to attend, then I’ll get out for a walk. Tonight starts a three day winter storm up here - first part should be rain, then it eventually turns to snow. I’ll be working on a recipe given to me by a friend on spaghetti with sardines (onion and parsley also). A new use for sardines I want to try!
Laura, awww, poor Polly

. I hope she’s recovered some more since yesterday. Does the vet at your usual clinic do dental or does a dental specialist vet come through? Was her anesthesia injected or breathed in? I’m not sure about the Maverick name in your title - I think cowboys, I think fast cars, I think males - not food or good habits

. As a kid in AZ, I remember getting out to the desert and finding pink quartz and scorpions

and the cacti were pretty huge and cool! I remember my brother hitting his head at my uncle’s house and needing to go to the hospital, and I remember a huge stuffed dog I got for Christmas there that didn’t seem to make it back home

. I did go back to see a friend staying there a few years back and saw some lovely parkland dessert out there.
Vantreesta, I went to the Grand Canyon several years ago with a friend, but unfortunately he had trouble walking, so no hikes down the paths. I don’t think I would have many years left to hike out there either - I should go soon! I think I might be a foster failure also

.
Paula, Bob Voyage on your cruise coming up soon!

You seem prepared for it! I’m not sure what MOBE stands for, but it’s counseling associated with my health insurance MOBEforlife.com. I was in Glacier Park about twenty five years ago - unfortunately it was a major fire season when we got there, so places to stay weren’t considered safe in that area. It looks like I have a summer festival, Irish Fest, next summer to go to in the Milwaukee area.
Waves to all!
