On the road again.

Rita and Roger are traveling to South Dakota for a funeral.  They'll just be gone over the weekend.

EMMA

Donnie did a great job capturing this beautiful shot of

Rita and Rogers "EMMA".

IT'S RELATIVES DAY AND I'VE GOT 'EM COMING OUT OF THE WOODWORK

A VISIT TO HOLMEN

Rita, Roger and I are going to Janie's today.  I'm hoping we'll get a chance to see her, again, while Donnie is here but she doesn't always stay put long enough to catch her home.  Next week she takes off for Colorado.

RITA AND EMMA

Two beautiful ladies!

GOT A NOTE FROM RITA

"The ponies have lots of grass now.  We still have to find them a good home but, for now, they are quite happy where they are."

"The dogs got their beauty treatments yesterday.

Baths and brushed and scarves and even nails trimmed and Emma with nail polish to match her collar.   The’re all smiles and smell good too."

 

 



 

TV HAS NEVER LOOKED THIS GOOD

Rita stopped by this morning.

She was in town, trying to call Roger and her phone is broke so she had to come and use mine.  I swear, those two are the busiest two people I've ever seen.  I get tired just listening to all they have to do.

What a day we had!

Would you believe we went all the way to Stevens Point to get bird seed today??  What a beautiful day for a road trip.  Lot's of sun and the temperature was just perfect.

 

 Roger shopped, Rita shopped, we played tourist and took in all the sights.  I had never been to Stevens Point or any of that part of Wisconsin so I enjoyed it so much.

Of course we stopped and ate and then they took me to the casino where I stood behind Rita and Roger and watched them lose their money.  It's amazing how fast that money can disappear when you're having "fun".

Personally, I think if you want to throw money away it's much more fun to drink it up than stuff it in a one armed bandit so we stopped at the Teepee Bar in Tomah and had a hamburger and some of that good old moonshine!

Thanks to R & R for a really fun day.



Rita, Roger and I are on the road today.

I can't really remember why we're going there but it's a change of scenery so I'm game!

They say you should start your day with a good, healthy breakfast.

I started my day, today, with a piece of Caramel Apple Pie that I brought home from Rita and Roger's house.  Rita didn't make it and I can't remember where she got it but I have to find out.  I need to get one of those pies all for myself.  That's the best pie I've ever eaten.

We're taking a road trip, tomorrow, with Rita and Roger.

We're on our way to Plover, Wisconsin which is a suburb of Stevens Point.  A little city of, about, 12,000 people.  I know they told me why we're going there but, of course, I can't remember.

 

One thing about having a non-existing memory is that everything in life is always a complete surprise.

Thanks to Rita and Roger for a great Easter dinner!

I would have to say Rita outdid herself with the turkey.  I would never have thought a turkey done in the crockpot would be any good but she got a recipe from someone and it was DELICIOUS!  I brought plenty of it home so I'll have plenty for sandwiches this week.

 

Renee was there too and she's always great company so I would say Easter 2014 was a success.

 

I took some pictures but, unfortunately, I got super frustrated trying to remember how to get the pictures from the camera to the computer and ended up deleting them rather than saving them.

 

GRRRRRRRR!!

EASTER ON THE FARM

I'm going up to Rita and Roger's with Renee this morning.....unless we get a better offer along the way.

YUKKY FOOD

The traditional Greek Easter Soup has, as its main ingredient, lamb gizzards.  I hope Rita doesn't plan on serving that tomorrow.  It sounds almost as gross as lutefisk.

I THINK I'LL DO THIS TO RITA AND ROGER'S TREES TOMORROW

The EASTER EGG TREE! http://t.co/lewxW9p1dF http://t.co/tLEsW4fj1V pic.twitter.com/DnamaDrj9n

VIROQUA

Off to Viroqua to see Aunt Wilda this morning.  Going with Rita and Roger.  It's been a long time since we've been up there so I'm looking forward to the trip.

WILL THERE BE A SUMMER?

Do you suppose we'll ever see another day like this in Wisconsin?

STORM: RITA REPORTS

"Had to run some errands.  The power was out in Onalaska.  Several intersections and roads were underwater.  Our neighbors pastures are flooded.  The tiny little creek across the road is running like a river and overflowing its banks."

The life of a tulip.

 

While we're on the subject of roses, this is one of Rita's roses from 2011.  I'm sure we'll see a similar display this summer.
