Sky ~ The Bruise ~ Pickleball ~ Pistachios


Good 26ยบ frozen, again, morning. Pretty clear sky today....

 
Last night's sunset was pretty too....

Interesting clouds coming back from Medford yesterday.... see the fish just above the mountain on the right? Looks like a shark....
 
Bruiser is so funny. He goes off now and hunts and then comes back every day. He's happy to be indoors and on my lap. Sunday he went way up in the pasture. I saw him and called his name. He came back to me RUNNING!


 
So after 'playing' with the picture I erased the fence...
How cool is that!

The annual doc appointment was good. I just love my new doctor, she is funny and cute and so knowledgeable! Left there, stopped at the market, went to Patty and Cliff's. Problem with their AOL and a search window pops up every time they log on. I looked and looked on how to get rid of it, but to no avail. The "opt out" didn't work. So, we had some wine and chatted. I'll look into that from here and see what I can come up with. Soup for dinner. Relaxing fire. Nice. Had a chat with Jeannie (she and Bill down in Casa Grande, AZ) and they learned how to play pickleball yesterday. She said they loved it and had a blast.

Funny, first played on Bainbridge Island, Wa and named after the dog, Pickles, who would retrieve the errant balls.

 

All I know. Nuff said. Happy Tuesday. Ciao.
