Sue's Bavarian Dinner ~ Girlfriend's Day ~ Harley*Maggie



Good 55º pretty clear with a few scattered clouds morning.























If you can believe this nutty stuff from Michigan...
You may think city policies are weird where you live, but this woman was going to have to go to court because she grew fresh vegetables in her front yard. Give me a freekin' break! The city "official" who speaks on this piece is a GINORMOUS ass.




Here's an old stand by favorite... been makin' it for years...
Sue's Bavarian Dinner
1# franks (beef or turkey or chicken ... whatever..or use Kilbasa) cut up
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 t. caraway seed
1 can sauerkraut - drained
1 can 1 lb 13 oz whole canned potatoes, drained and sliced
Spray casserole dish with Pam. Mix and add all ingredients. Sprinkle Paprika on top. Bake 350º for 30 minutes.




Not only are my high school friends getting their 10 minutes of fame, but so are their children... Sandy Todoran's son Patrick...


Hey Dracket, lookin' good!
  


Excitement was rampant yesterday. I cleaned some spots on the carpet upstairs, dug some boxes out of my closet and took some to the trash, a pile for Goodwill, and some cooking magazines if anyone wants them. Then found Jerry's death certificate. Whew. It needs to go to GP Motors if they sell the scoot because the pink (it's really blue) has both our names on it and in Orygun they don't put an "or" so his demise has to be proven. Gaaa.... THEN, the excitement heats up... well, rather, the Honeywell Weather Station said it was actually 91º , but "feels like 107º". Yikes. Yes, it did.


Maggs and I went back to PJ's to put the girls in the front yard cat house where it's more shady in the afternoon. I put out PJ's trash can ...


(sorry, fuzzy) and mine...





 Then we returned home...






She so loves to ride....



....and we found Mr. Harley napping happily on the glider...


Hi pretty boy.... Hey, don't stick your tongue out at your Mother!

And got this picture from Patty, she and Cliff are at their place in Gold Beach... son Chuck, his wife Linda, and her relative Susan are there for the weekend. Chuck caught his biggest salmon ever... 30 pounds ..

Way cool Chuck!




Went to PJ and Dave's yesterday morning and put the 'girls' out in Al-Cat-Traz, Neko and Rio........

















Fed the koi...




















Stopped and talked to neighbor Maria. She and Gerard are now housing their granddog, Kelly. She is old like Maggie and the new pups their son and dil have do not make Kelly happy. She and Maggie swapped spit...


Brian, Tucker, and Sami showed up to help with the Harley.







Kids and I and Maggie took a ride to the pond...














Tucker is a photographer too!














...and B got the scoot on the trailer




















and we stopped at Napa for a new lower hitch ...


and then to GP Motors ...



where it was put on consignment. The bike will be posted on their site with picture (http://www.gpmotorsonline.com/home/ ) ..Vicky and Ken ..



Good people. Nice.


I cried all the way home though. Darn. It's hard to deal with some of these things. We had a lot of fun on that scoot... lots of good memories riding with friends and with the Choirboys. Anyway, back home, unhooked the trailer, but it's so HEAVY I couldn't get it up the incline into the barn. It will be fine there for a while, weather won't bother it.



















It was 93º by the time I decided I'd go to  to GP and meet up with Jeannie and Bill and their pals Donna and Dan and watch the parade of cars. We had wine at the Elks first and blabbed and blabbed about everything! Donna is funny and has had some neat life experiences. Then we stood on the corner and saw so many neat cars. Lots of them up from California for the event.



















I thought this was the gay corner and they were both sitting in the same chair... but no, just weird camera angle....





After the parade of cars we went back to Billy & Jeannie's MH and had a wine ... then I came home and put in the cats, fed Maggie and Harley, and it was pj time. Nice evening. Had a ball. Nothing better than good friends when you are in the dumps!
