MAX IS BACK IN ACTION:))

DSC_4690 

Max is 100% back to his good old doggy self to-day.  He was the first one out the door on our walk this morning & he's been out & about all day long with the rest of the gang.  And he's really enjoying his newly trimmed paws all way round.  The big black Corky dog came for the day & Max was right over there showing the Cork boy his newly trimmed nails.  Pretty proud fellow & he had a swagger in his walk for the whole day.

CORKY’S MOM HANDING OUT DOGGY TREATS TO A FOUR LEGGED GANG OF RUFFIANS

Big sunny skies are back bringing the temps up but the gusting winds made it jacket weather just the same.  Don't think we got down below freezing last night either because of some cloud cover.  Geeeezzzz, how can you tell I'm Canadian eh!!  Always going on about the weather, that's how:))

Finally got to bed after 11 last night after having to re-copy the blog from Live Writer to Blogger for the umpteenth time in the last couple of months.  I was pretty upset again to say the least & if I didn't like blogging so much I'd pack it in find something else to occupy my time.  But, I enjoy writing & photography which goes hand in hand with RVing so it would be pretty hard for me to just walk away from it at this stage.  Easiest thing would be to use Blogger again like I always used to but once you have used Live Writer it's simply a more funner way to do things & I'm hooked on it.  I have no idea whatsoever what is causing our Live Writer errors & I don't have the patience or interest to track the problem down either.  Kelly already has spent a few hours on it as well as some fellow bloggers.  I actually started out first thing this morning to un-install it & then re-install it.  I couldn't even get to first base on figuring out how to un-install it because I think it's imbedded into Windows Live which in itself has become increasingly confusing to me with all it's fancy schmancy new e-phone kneephone email programs, texting schmexting, live monsoon messenger, my space cry space, & who all knows whatever other kid's techno pop crap they've crammed in there.......etc. etc.  Well, at least it's not as bad as that silly symphony gooey gamed Facebook yet!!!!!  Ya, ya, I know........

<<< Kelly got this Turkey on sale over in Bisbee for only 8 dollars.  Had it to-day & now we have enough left over for Turkey a-la-king, Turkey souffle’ Turkey muffins, Turkey Torte, Turkey pudding with butterscotch sauce & a nice Turkey Flambe’  Oh ya, & some cold turkey sandwiches to boot:))

Read me another big hunk of 'me 'n Henry this afternoon & am really enjoying the book.  A very realistic view of a poor farm family's struggle to survive with a large family back in the 20's, 30's & 40's.  I grew up somewhere in between that depression era & this pathetic mess we are presently in & it angers me to no end when I see how far the attitudes of youth & morals of society have declined.  This book has reminded me of that over & over again!!

SOMETIMES……THINGS ARE NOT QUITE WHAT THEY SEEM:))

I was reading some RV blogs this morning & a link in MIKE & PAT'S TRAVELS caught my eye.  An RV couple came very close to losing their lives in an armed hold-up of their rig recently.  Just goes to show that the slime ball low life are always out their lurking somewhere.  It happened at an RV campground at an RV repair facility in Elkhart, Indiana.  We were there two winters ago when we had a new screen door installed so it hit a little closer to home for us when I read it.  Also in Mike's blog he talks about an RV fire in their park in which a Class A was gutted.  Looks like it may have started in the furnace when the folks were away.

CHECKERS IS TEMPORARILY ON A LEASH THIS MORNING BECAUSE SHE KEEPS WANTING TO WANDER OFF & SEE THE NEIGHBOR’S DOG

And a little note to our usual 'jokes' friends.  While we're traveling we don't send or receive jokes because they totally eat up our limited 5 Gig Verizon limit.  I do save them but we can't look at them.  And yes, despite recent changes in our internet habits we are still going to be waaaaaay over our 5 Gig limit again this month.  I think they must have a program running whereupon for every megabyte we use they assess us 10!!

Going to keep the blog shorter to-night & see how I make out with Live Writer or whatever the heck the problem is.  Besides, I'm feeling a little ranty again & that is not always a good thing for a travel blog......if ya know what I mean.........10-4!!

  1. That's great news about Max - glad to hear he's back to his old self. That Live Writer problem sounds very frustrating. Removing it, and starting all over again is the best place to start. Hang in there with your blogging though! If it's still a problem next month, maybe we can hook up and figure this out together!

  2. SO glad Max is up and at 'em again. That fellow RVer who was burgled and accosted by an armed intruder scumbag slimeball is a good friend of ours. I'm proud of how he handled himself. I'd have just messed my pants and fallen down.

    Not braqging at all, but luckily we aren't having any problem with Live Writer these days.

  4. Hello Al;
    Live Writer has given me fits also on my last post. It seems to look great while creating it in Live Writer, but after uploading to Blogger pictures and paragraphs move and change. Very frustrating, but still better than using Blogger to post.

    Glad to hear Max is doing great.
    PS: We had a few flakes fall today, our first of the year.
