Greetings all

Another sunny beautiful fall day here. More Halloween stuff going up.Some people put up so so much holiday stuff I can't figure out where they keep it. There are no basements here. Must be storage units.

So our team played last night and lost miserably. DD it was to the Minnesota gophers!!! A very lame game though a great one for Minn.! But I see the Twin Cities are out big in the marches today and I assume you are too. We had a very large one here though too much walking for me.

So Liz, bull riding must be entertaining but scary to watch. Makes me cringe to think of those risks. Hope the wedding goes well and is fun. Nice destination. Before you leave Arizona you must go to a bar in your boots and do line dancing.

Studio buddy might come over in awhile to watch Oregon football. Meanwhile I am letting my hair dry. Lunch might have to be chili from a can since I did not get stuff to make any. The shrimp is tonight and will include teriyaki sauce but I don't think our guest will eat it.

Still piddling with clean up but the top of my desk is visible. Kitchen table still looks like a paper recycle bin in spite of the bags I have filled.

DH is busy studying ways to improve his balance. I told him about walking backward on the treadmill which people do at our gym. I will get him a membership when I am convinced he will use it. Our home treadmill does not have sufficient side bars to use when walking; only ones to the front. Plus it is noisy and I am spoiled for the nicer ones.

Eggs on toast for breakfast. Enjoying the good life here.

So true!

As I wrote the date I realized that Paula and her DH will be Florida residents a month from now!

As you saw, I did get the boots and a hat yesterday. I got a good price on the boots which have a little interest but aren't too over the top. I ended up buying the hat because in my mind I had money left over. But especially because when I was trying it on, a young lady said that it looked really good on me LOL.

We went to a basic diner like place for breakfast yesterday when we realized at around 9 am that we were starved. Of course our bodies thought it was noon time. So we just had some amazing guacamole as a snack at lunchtime in Old Town. Great dinner outdoors near here, then we went to a place to watch some bull riding. Those bulls sure didn't waste any time getting the humans off their backs. Though I know that people can get hurt doing it it seemed really well controlled somehow. Getting out of the parking lot was the biggest challenge. The place had filled up with a ton of people and their cars were all over the place.

Today is the wedding! We will probably eat breakfast again at a place of DSD's choice, then snack for lunch again. We need to leave to meet the shuttle for the wedding at about 3:15. We have to take a shuttle because the wedding is at the clubhouse of a private, gated community and it won't allow the number of cars required to get all the wedding guests there. I guess their security is pretty tight because though DH and I live in a gated community in Florida they will allow guests through for special events at the clubhouses.

Have a stupendous Saturday!

I used to like the trick and treating when my kids were young but once they were grown I got tired of having to listen to the dogs bark incessantly so would go out to dinner during trick or treat time. I left a big bucket of candy on the porch. It was always empty when I got home so I hoped the big kids didn't empty it out early on. No kids where we live now.

I didn't know that that was how cowboy boots were supposed to work but based on the fit I can understand it!

I did not like Bob Denver's music when he was alive but have grown to like it as classic music from my young days.

Nice dinner party and good that your nephew can hear that there is hope for a good life ahead of him.
