Back Home

I am back from my recent adventure to Oregon where I dog/house sitted for a week in Hillsboro. There is something settling about returning to your familiar surroundings. Having your toys and other items close to hand is reassuring that you are indeed still amoungest the living!

Have you had a good laugh lately? I sure have after visiting the Yearbook site. It is an internet site that transforms a photo of yourself into what you might have looked like in prior years. You must be able to laugh at yourself because it made me belly roll looking at the resulting photos. Take a look at one of them. This is the 1982 "Afro" version.

If that doesn't make you smile then you had better check your pluse. Enjoy. Just remember that the next photo i take of you might end up in the same program!

Multi-colored Mullet

Okay....I realize that I haven't kept up with the times but I can usually figure things out if given half a chance....especially with the computer as a resource. I must reveal that I am totally lost with this one. What is a multi-colored Mullet? I use to think that a mullet was a fish ... so therefore a multi-colored mullet was one that had been out in the sun for too long...it also conjured up the thought of very fragrent orders coming off the body. Well in researching the web ...see attached photo...I came up with a photo of a multi-colored 50 year old rat tailed mullet. There was no explanation given with the photo so I am left to wonder if the "mullet" is a reference to the old man....his hair style or something else. In order to collect one of these for a scavenger hunt do I bring the whole thing or do I just cut off the green rat tail? Please advise,

Rainy Night

As I write this edition we are finally getting a welcome break in the HOT weather! It is raining! I don't know tha number of days that it has been above 100 degrees this summer but it seems like it must be every day. It was 111 degrees on my atomic thermometer yesterday at 530pm. It never cooled off all night even though I had the whole house open and the fans blowing full force!
The rain has stopped already....a real short shower! I hope that we get a little more rain during the night. The forest is dry and the rain might wet things down for a short time.
Nothing much to report. No new pictures to show. I did register for a Twitter account. I have been reading posting from a visitor to Vegas. It is interesting to read his account as he walks the strip in Vegas. Well enough for now...Have a great night.
