Good afternoon everyone....just got up a little while ago, and am looking forward to this Memorial Day Weekend continuing on....

Gran...your granddaughters are just lovely, taking after their Gran, I am sure...wait till the Chloe grows up, shes going to be another doll...I just know you are so proud of all your grandchildren...

Loddy, great to see you back...I know, when returning from trips, there is always laundry to do, and mail to sort through....actually I like junk mail, especially if its catalogs...we get tons of them...BigDom orders lots of things through catalogs, ,and you know how that goes, once you are on one list, you eventually wind up on the list of every catalog made in America....

Yesterday, we went up to Tacoma, to one of our favorite spots, called the Parkway Pub...its really a nifty little place, with a mostly local clientel, and really friendly staff...and of course, they serve many varied draft beers...which is why we go there...they change their micro brew drafts quite often, so we get to taste lots and lots of new beers....and of course, filled up our growler, with a particular beer which we both really liked...

And another pleasant surprise at the Parkway...they also allow dogs to come in with their human friends....yesterday, a couple came in with their beautiful golden retreiver, who appears to be a regular customer...the dog ran behind the bar, go greet the bartenders, and then made the rounds of all the customers...oh, she was such a beautiful dog...I gave her a really good backscratching and she parked herself right next to me, for the duration of our time there...she would every so often, leave me, ,to check in with her owner, but then she would run right back...I just love places that allow dogs...

Then we headed out for another place, for a yummy Prime Rib dinner...needless to say, we were stuffed full, with beer, and Prime rib, and fixings, at which point we headed on home...once home, Mr. Dizzy, gave me a once over, and was indignant, that I would dare pet a dog(cats do feel that dogs are somewhat inferior)...but after a good grooming session, and lots of love and treats, Dizzy was again himself, purring and satisfied, that we were now home, to turn out attention towards him...

Today and tomorrow, we shall just spend at home, enjoying the holiday.....need to head out for the store, to buy the fixings for today and tomorrows dining pleasure...

Hope everyone has a happy and safe holiday...

Mo, hang in there, with the relatives....much as we love them, they can be a pain in the rump...when my parents were alive and well, and living in California, they would come up once a year and live with us in Washington State for a couple weeks...we loved having them, but could not wait till they left...

I went wandering today.
A few people ran screaming, thinking I was some sort of ghost or spectre.
Hmm..
I guess I can't win.
*shrugs*
Guess I'll stick to art, stories, and poetry right?
