PSA NUMBERS CONFIRMED AND AN ARCHIVE POST JEEPS US TO FOUR CONFEDERATE GRAVESITES AT DRAGOON SPRINGS ARIZONA

SIX YEARS AGO TODAY PHEEBS CHECKED HERSELF INTO A WICKENBURG ARIZONA VET CLINIC FOR A CHECK UP
With an incoming storm from America's southwest predicted to roll in sometime this afternoon we were hoping to make the round 105 mile trip to London and back before it got here.  And we did.  Under cloudy skies roads were bare and dry all the way to and from London with no wind, rain, or snow to bug us.

MANAGED A SHORT WALK UNDER CLOUDY SKIES
PHEEBS TRACKS A MOUSE
DOESN'T LOOK LIKE ANYBODYS COMING BACK FOR THESE HIKING BOOTS ALONG THE TRAIL
THAT'S THE ONLY PATCH OF BLUE SKY I SAW ALL DAY AND BELOW IS AN ONTARIO'S IDEA OF A SAGUARO
My appointment at the London Regional Cancer Center was scheduled for 2 p.m. so being the early birds we are it was shortly after one when we arrived.  My number was called at 2:10 and by 2:35 we were all done and out the door heading for home.  Doctor Mendez varified my .45 PSA number and said he was pleased with the result.  So was I.  Had us a little chat with a few questions back and forth and that was it.  He wants to see me again around the end of July.  My next PSA check will be in May with my Urologist, Doctor Bukala.

Today's expected storm is now due to arrive over night so I expect we'll wake up to snow on the ground again.  That snow is expected to continue over the next 3 days.
THESE FOLKS ALREADY HAVE THEIR MAPLE SYRUP PAILS ON THE TREES
::An Archive Post::  December 1rst 2010 found us still in Cochise County Arizona and on this day we covered a few rough and tumble desert miles around the north end of the Dragoon Mountains in a 3 Jeep convoy to a place called Dragoon Springs where the remains of 4 Confederate soldiers still lay.  Arriving back to our RV near Elfrida later in the day we met a couple of Bayfield Bunch followers who have become friends and who we last saw in Ajo Arizona just over a year ago.  Here's my post for the day....Confederate Graves At Dragoon Springs.  And here are my photos for this great day...Dragoon Springs And Confederate Graves.
FOR KELLY AND I THIS WAS OUR VERY FIRST TIME JEEPING WITH OTHER JEEPERS....WE WERE THE NEWBIES


GROANER'S CORNER:(( A man was giving a speech at his lodge meeting. He got a bit carried away and talked for two hours. Finally, he realized what he had done and said, "I'm sorry I talked so long. I left my watch at home.  "A voice from the back of the room replied, "There's a calendar behind you..."

  3. Glad the numbers are legit. Sounds like a pretty big storm going through the upper Midwest and into Canada. Hope it comes and goes quickly.

  4. I'm happy when my doctor's happy :-)) Pheebs is so pretty in the snow. Our southwest winds are keeping it chilly the last couple days, but we're enjoying the bright sunshine.

  6. Glad the numbers are good and the doctor went well. Always like when that happens.
    Love the sap buckets, so colourful. A sure sign of spring once we see those hanging on the trees.
    Hopefully the storm is a bust and things headed steadily toward spring.
