Yesterday morning friends Pat Reardon (LASD ret) and his bride Alice arrived for a very short visit. They were on their way back home to Washington state. We had a nice but short visit. While standing in the yard I spotted this winged creature...     


After some research, having never seen one of these before, I found out it was a silkmoth.


Here's Alice and Pat with Dude in the licking attack mode!


Yesterday was Tucker's baseball game. Here's a Smilebox of some highlights.

Dinner was reruns... and then a nervous night as this guy,
Bruiser, was gone all night. Grrrrr... He waltzed back in at 6am when I let Dude out! Makes me a nervous ninny! Now he's sleeping!!!!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Sunday. Ciao.

Be careful from where your shrimp come.... don't buy them if they come from Viet Nam or Thailand... or .... Get USA only!!! I LOVE shrimp, but after seeing how it's raised in some countries, no thanks, USA ONLY!!!!!
