Morning walk

My morning walk started out with a drive this morning.  My lovely wife has always taken a long weekend to fly to Salt Lake City to visit her friend, Marcia.  It's a "girls weekend".  Sometimes they drive to Nevada for fun and games.  One trip, they went to see Celine in Los Vegas; one was a cruise to Mexico.  It's a get-away from the hubbies and kids.  It's a weekend to regain their sanity.  I highly encourage the trip.  The car logistics this morning, required me to drive her to the fork, where she picked up a ride to work.  This evening, I will actually drive somewhere....I will pick her up at work and take her to the airport.  It will be fun to drive again.  I work out of the home office and walk everywhere else.  This venture should be fun!!!  (If I can only remember which is the gas and which is the break.)

When I returned Milo and I took our morning walk.  We have moved from winter, directly into summer.  The high today is predicted to be around 80.  We raised the flag, remembered our friends and families, saluted and continued on.  Plato and Maui joined us. I did not have Milo on his lease today.  He bolted down Riley's driveway.  I called him.  He can up the driveway with Riley.  Riley has changed his posture.  He did not approach with his hair standing on end, tail between the legs and showing his teeth.   He came up with tail wagging....looking for a treat.  We finally have a friend.

Our neighbor, Kay waved as she drove by.  Kay is a school teacher.  Yesterday, she brought her 1st graders up to Sunshine for a visit.  They made a trip to the cemetery and the school house, before going to her house for lunch.  Kay lives in one of the haunted houses in Sunshine.

On our return trip, Milo and I ran into the mayor, Chris.  He stopped just long enough to tell us another story. "This man went into the bar and asked the bartender to line up six shots.  The bartender set them up and then said 'six shots!  Iseverything OK?'  The man replied 'I just found out my son is gay'.  The next day the same man went into the bar and said to the bartender 'Bartender, six shots, line em' up!'  the bartender did as asked and replied 'Six shots again today?'.  The man replied, 'Yea...I just found out my other son is gay'.  He downed the shots and left.  The next day the man returned and said 'Bartender, six shots, line em' up!'  The bartender lined em' up and then said.'My God, doesn't anybody in your family like women?'  The man then replied, "Yes, My wife does!"

Thank you to everyone who wished me Happy Birthday.

The band has another gig.  I'll post the flyer later.

Smiles, David
