IT WAS A MONTH AGO TODAY………

BAYFIELD’S BEACH  (NIKON D50)

It was one month ago today our hearts were immediately won over as we met the newest member of the Bayfield Bunch for the very first time.  We have been soooooooo pleased with our little Pheebe girl.  What an exceptionally smart, eager and affectionate best Pal she has turned out to be.  And, what a clown.  In one short month she has added so much sunlight to our lives with her playful antics and outgoing personality.  It takes us back to Max's exuberant younger days.  How great it is having a new best friend once again to walk the forest paths, mountain trails and desert ways.

SURE IS A DOG’S LIFE AROUND HERE  (CANON AF730)
Wednesday turned out to be a real grinder of a day for me but my spirits were lifted Wednesday night by getting together with one of my two best friends for another marathon four and a half hour non stop talkathons with neither of us taking time to draw a breath.  I absolutely love the kinds of conversations we have.  No small talk, no politics, no sports, and no beating around the bush about anything as we just flow seamlessly from topic to topic.  We are always on the same wavelength, have a lot in common and a lot to talk about whenever we get together:))  Many years ago this fellow was my Boss and right from the time we met in 1975 we clicked, understood each other and became best friends over the years.  It was this fellow and his wife who in 1979 went out of their way to help me.  It was they who pointed me in the direction of AA when I had a serious drinking problem.  It was this fellow who made the phone call that changed my life.

Noticed someone in the Shout Box questioned my spelling of harbor/harbour so figured I had better look that up on Google.  One site simply said, Harbor or Harbour?  'Both are correct. It depends on where you are from.'  In America you write a check and in Canada we write a cheque.  In Canada, a U is sometimes added behind an O.  I sometimes just go with whatever spelling Microsoft's Live Writer suggests.  Always good to have people point things out.  I appreciate that.

Wondering if anyone is familiar with the areas around Durango and Cortez in the Four Corners area of Colorado.  Boon docking areas, RV Parks, State Parks, special attractions, etc.  We will be looking for a few good home bases to do day trips from in those parts.  Am thinking of taking highway 160 from Walsenburg through Alamosa and Pagosa Springs.  We plan to be in that area somewhere around October 20th or so.  No idea where we will be going after that but we'll figure it out once we get there.  We are always open to suggestions, ideas and information regarding great wilderness and scenic areas.

GROANER'S CORNER:((  Ponderings…………

Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds?
Why are there interstate highways in Hawaii?
Why are there flotation devices under plane seats instead of parachutes?
Why are cigarettes sold in gas stations when smoking is prohibited there?
Why do fat chance and slim chance mean the same thing?
If you can't drink and drive, why do you need a driver's license to buy liquor, and why do bars have parking lots?
Do you need a silencer if you are going to shoot a mime?
Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?
How does the guy who drives the snow plow get to work in the mornings?
If 7-11 is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, why are there locks on the doors?
