I'm in trouble with my daughter, who feels that no cute furry animal deserves the death penalty. She is sending us some humane mouse traps, as I don't think they can be found here. Laurie is so committed to this notion that she got a cat who is too fat to chase mice. In fact, Amelia (the cat) once watched one run right past her and didn't even twitch. In honor of Amelia and to try to restore myself to Laurie's good graces, I've sent her this hilarious video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXla8GYpAyY. It's a hoot. (Laurie, I sent it to Huggy on Facebook, so ask him to show you).
Next week we'll be going back to Hubbell Trading Post, staying for three days so Budd can get their work done. I'm looking forward to checking on the progress of Ruby's rug, and hoping for some photo opps. I hope this weather holds, so we can do some canyon exploration this weekend. We have only 3 more weeks here (the extension was shorter than discussed), so now I'm feeling pressed for time to see everything we wanted to. But, on an exciting note, I just got a call from Budd that he has finally reached the AO at Organ Pipe Cactus Nat'l Monument and we'll be going there as soon as we're finished here. This is the park we initially thought we'd be going to straight from Salt Lake, and were so excited about. More about this as the details unfold.
Today we have gorgeous weather, mid-50's which is very pleasant in this dry climate, and sunny. I was going to go out for a walk, but now I think I'll skip and cavort!!! Blaze is out, so I'll probably have company. It's a good day!
