Thank you souris. I have made an improvement with my music. I was doing a Google search the other day for a song and found a nice wav site. These wav's don't take too long for my slow connection to load so I can preview and choose songs quickly at this new site.
I even made a request at this site the other day and was just informed via e-mail that the song is now available at the web-site. They'll probably hear from me again. LOL!

Hi Sam. Happy to see you!

I'm in and out too, have quite a few things to do.

You are my best friend.

The whole state has it's own special kind (so many kinds) of beauty, it's hard to not see any no matter where you are!

We live 190 miles SE of Phoenix, just 15 miles north of Mexico at an elevation of about 5000' in the Upper Sonoran Desert.

Here's another feathered neighbor of mine, the Whitewing Dove. These birds are notoriously poor homebuilders. I came across a pair today that was nesting in a crevice between two rocks in my landscaping!

LOLOL!
YUP!
Walked to within fifty yards of me, turned his head and jabbed a horn right through his own heart!
I was as baffled as the man who owned the ranch where we were hunting mulies.
The way I figured it, he probably had a fight with his mate that morning and decided to end it all.
Some animals are dumb thata way.

Best Friend! That just made my day! I'm honored!

Maybe I should go on vacation more often if this is the result.

[SassyMom]

YIPPEE!!! Way to go MuShu!

[COB1]

LOL!
Yeah, I guess there might be different ways to say, "sorry".

"..all the girl dogs have expressed interest."

What's not to like? He's adorable.

Hi Victoria!
I caught your flag the other night, but I've been busy penetrating Mother Earth in search of hydrocarbons.
Good to see ya!

Several years ago in Calgary..went to the Spruce Meadows masters, a World invitation show jumping course competition.
My friend Catherine was dissapointed at first..as it had really rained..and the field was litteraly flooded.
yet some of the best show jumping I have ever seen occured.
We were at ground level..and could see the "Fire" in the horses eyes.
Horses are very aware that they are competing against other horses....and they show off when they do well ..you can see it in their body language.
Several horses were psyched out by the water..and simply refused to jump...others gave up after clipping 5 or 6 rails...the horse knows its having a bad day.

As each horse ran the course..the next horse and rider stand at a gate higher than the course on the periphery..and watch.
I watched as most of the horses seemed on edge by the weather..as they strode out they looked tenative as the rain fell.
A jet black horse from a historic "Spanish " stable in Mexico came next..the horse was magnificent with braided hair ..it strode out with its head held high..and no jitteryness about it.
We watched this horse...smaller than most..jump and move toward each obsticle with confidence
The crowd rose in its cheering as the horse neared the 3/4 mark..it appeared so sure or itself.
The horse ran the course with no faults..and afterward was prancing and bobbing its head.... drinking in the crowds praise.

There's something very "Regal" about horses...on this day....this horse was truly a King
To be more accurate.....A Queen!

OH, the family would love that!

You should see the deals I had to make to get to the Libraries!

You're welcome MoJo. We tend to think what we do here is important. We love those who serve our great country and do our best to serve them through the internet. They seem to like what we do here. :) I hope you'll stay and enjoy the 24/7 online party and support.

Thanks for all the Arizona info. Very interesting for me. I remember a few things about your state but the biggest thing I remember was how hot it was there. We were asleep in the car and my parents pulled up to a diner. We all got out and when they opened the car door, it was like opening an oven door. I was 7 or 8 I think and I'll never forget it. LOL

Isn't ugly biker from Arizona? Is he around today? Yoohoo! Hello?

[SpookBrat]

Bless your heart. I can imagine how you feel. I just left Texas and feel the same way. Sorry you're stuck in sorry Palm Beach County. LOL

[Victoria Delsoul]

Best Friend! That just made my day! I'm honored!

Well, I value honesty, loyalty, and more than anything, good-hearted people.

Would you say I am… Crazy.

Hey, but I don't… Fall to pieces.

LOL, be back a little later.

[SpookBrat]

Need a tissue? I'll be a sap with you. *sniff*

Well you got yourself a deal, because you know I can talk!!! ROFL! Seriously, now that we are homeschooling, traveling is one of our goals. We'll let you know before we come though.
