Good morning, my friends, and happy Saturday! We had a productive day here yesterday. Of course, it started with slow-stitching. I filled my hoop and moved to the next position. I'll be finishing this piece today.

Good early morning, my friends. We're moving on to Bernalillo, New Mexico, this morning, and so I'm here bright and early to catch up on the goings on here. Kitties have had their treats, and I'm drinking my first cup of coffee. I barely have my eyes opened, and so I'm hoping this will be somewhat coherent.
Backing up to yesterday, we started our day by finding a McDonald's along our route to the Bisti/De-Na-Zin Wilderness Area. We haven't had our beloved Egg McMuffin since leaving home, and we were Jonesing for it ...

We couldn't have planned our beach trip any better if we'd been clairvoyant. While there was a heat wave raging back home, we were enjoying relatively chilly weather at the beach in Winchester Bay, Oregon. I hope y'all have been behaving yourselves...not getting sick, etc. I have a lot of pictures to show today, so just get yourself a cuppa cuppa and let's have a chat.
We left around 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday morning. We were towing our ATV's and so this was truck camper adventure.

We both admitted to being lazy yesterday. We did some stuff in the morning. We took Mike's truck in for service. An early-morning outing is always a good excuse for our beloved Egg McMuffin. For the past year-plus, we've been eating them in our private dining room...the one located in the parking lot of the Bi-Mart next door. Yesterday, we dined in. Yeah...impressive, no? (No?) After that we came home, and I did my one housekeeping chore and then watered the flower pots.
The kitties had to wait to go outside until we came home. Lately ...

read moreWe had a relaxing and fun week at the beach. It's just as well I wasn't planning to blog from there because we had no cell signal at our campsite. It was surprising since we were only about 100 yards (as the bird flies) from the main highway. Even on the highway, cell service was a little sketchy. So, all of that aside, I have so much to tell you! I believe I'll break it into three separate posts, just to keep the number of pictures down to a dull roar.
Before I go on, though, rumors ...

It was cloudy and cool yesterday, but there was no rain in the forecast. We decided to get out for a short hike. Our hiking book instructed us to drive south and then east to an unmarked and unsigned parking area. There are acres of solar panels in this part of Nevada, and more being built. It looks a little like the surface of a lake.

Okay, well we had big ideas about hiking yesterday, but then we got lazy. Also, we were watching the impeachment trial, which was interesting. We're leaving Boulder City tomorrow, and so we made a short grocery shopping excursion and filled our truck with fuel for the journey. Tomorrow we'll be in Laughlin, Nevada.
As for yesterday, I spent most of the day stitching. My thumb didn't object to this until I tried to let loose of the needle. Then, and only then, did I realize how stiff it was after hours of stitching. Definitely, I was over ...
