Pictures

I just picked up some developed film, so will dazzle you with pictures today.

Time for more linkage to some of the "Updated Websites" that I have visited:

Doing Well For Ourselves

The Weekemd Pundit shows how we in New Hampshire have weathered the economic downturn. Not too shaby!

Two Good Dogs

I did a post that started as a description of our trip to the vet's and it ended with how to keep the dogs' coats shiny. It got so long, that I decided to start a seperate post on what that post's main objective was supposed to be.

15,000 Mile Check Up

Missy and Prince went in for their annual vet visit yesterday morning. Everyone there was impressed that I had slimmed Missy down from 84 pounds to a svelte 72 pounds. Prince also lost a couple of pounds; down to 64 from 66.

I forgot to mention this yesterday (or maybe it was the day before - my schedule is all messed up). Jim is having a rough time (no specifics given), so go over and lend him your support.

Road Challenge

Found over at Parkway Rest Stop is this little Road Challenge Test. For those of us that are hard of seeing, it can be a challenge just to read some of the signs, but I managed to get 600, which means I'm not a total moron when it comes to driving. Oh, and there was one sign that I have never seen that was presented, so naturally I missed that one.

Glad it Didn't Attack

On my way home from work yesterday morning, about 2 miles from my house, I met a moose (no, we didn't exchange names - just phone numbers - LOL).

I was traveling the main road in town, at 50 MPH, came around a corner and found that a moose had just started crossing the road. He was in my lane and walking at a sedate pace. I stood on the brakes (fortunately I figured I had just enough room for stopping) when the moose did me a favor. He actually started to trot across the road.

That is not normal as I can attest to every other time I have met a moose on the road. They usually feel so invicible (hey, if I were that big, I would feel that way too), that you are lucky if they actually keep walking across the road; a lot of times they stop to stare at you before moving on.

I kept slowing down just in case he decided to come back out, while hoping that he would stop once he got across the road. Alas, he didn't stop and disappeared into the woods, so I didn't get that long of a look at him. Of course if he had stopped, I would have berated myself for not having a camera handy.
