Full Moon ~ Clouds/Rain ~ Deer ~ Dude ~ Cat Decal ~ Car Crash ~ Jim Harper ~ Sami The Champ ~ Mexican Corn Salad Dip ~ Donald Duck Day


Good 46º somewhat cloudy morning. 
Full moon. Rain predicted for tonight.

Yesterday the rain was heavy at times in the morning then tapered off and got a bit breezy.... well, downright windy and only 65º! Burrrrrrrr....




And out munching on some grass was this momma deer..

And Dude loves laying in the sun....



This is something I saw and had to have. It's a decal and I don't know if I will put it on my fridge or on the back of my car!



Wednesday I stopped in Rogue River and saw this wreck in front of the credit union:
The woman, elderly and with a heavy British accent hit the gas instead of the brake ... she, fortunately was not injured!
Today high school pal Jim Harper is celebrating his birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY JIM~!!


High school photo and with his bride Sally and their pup Rufus.
He and Sally's granddaughter just graduated the police academy in Nevada and will be working for Washoe County Sheriff's Dept. One of my "sons" Jim Forbus retired from there recently.

Oh joy.

Our Sami is amazing. She won State Champion!!!!! 

In the afternoon yesterday I took Dude in for his "mani/pedi". I know he wasn't happy about that, but he does love to ride in the car! Doc gave him an exam and said all was well. He's healthy and slim and looking fit.
