Miscellaneous Stuff ~


Just a  bunch of this 'n that 😁

Meet my grandkitty, Marge, named after Marge Simpson.  My son always talks about Marge hating his girlfriend.  When I first got to my son's place, Marge let me pick her up and pet her.  Soon she was hissing and swatting at me.  Then she would rub against my legs and then start hissing and swatting again.  Little stinker.  I decided to keep my distance!

When leaving Las Vegas I had a window seat.  Out the window were the most gorgeous views.  I did not realize until arriving home (sometimes I am a little slow) and looking at the pictures, the location given was the Grand Canyon.



I finally passed the Crooked River raffle rug on to the next hooker who will be working on it.  I made some progress.



Hopefully it will be hooked and bound in April and I will post information if anyone wishes to purchase raffle tickets.  A lucky winner will be chosen at our September hook in.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊

More breathtaking Sights ~

Welcome!  Thanks for visiting.  Bear with me.  I still can't figure out how to resize my pictures, so most of them are not showing full size unless you click on them.  **Warning**  This post is picture heavy!  I just wish my pictures could do the beauty justice.

Yesterday our first stop was Monument Valley, Utah.  More breathtaking scenery.  








Then on to the south rim of the Grand Canyon.  









Some of the crazies at the Canyon.  They were giving me a panic attack just watching them.  You can see two people sitting on the edge.  They are the two heads farthest out.


And look at this guy.  Do they have a death wish?  I wonder how many fall down the Canyon annually?



Today we headed to Sedona and somehow got lost along the way.  Well maybe not lost, but headed the wrong way . . . lol.  Darn GPS.  Unfortunately we did not have time to take a "Pink Jeep Tour", but did have time to see some of the sights.  I could spend days there.  There is so much to do.








Very cool cacti.




I have been telling DSO for years I want to go horseback riding.  Today he surprised me with a two hour trail ride!!!  Here's our cowboy guide Jake.


It had been at least 50 years since either one of us had been on a horse so they gave us the most docile horses.  Yes, we opted for helmets :), though really not necessary.  I was on GiGi and DSO was on Taco.  Fun, fun, fun, but my body is currently rebelling.


Tomorrow we are headed to Phoenix to visit a childhood friend of Fritz's and if all goes as planned, a visit with Julie of My Primitive Heart :)

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs :)
