Exotic Cactus, part 1.

A few of us gals went to the Exotic Cactus Ranch to shop. It is in T or C. The cactus were not as pretty as last year but still spectacular. The first two I bought. Doesn't the top one look like fatter lambs ears colored with chocolate? Phil bought one that looks like pigs feet sticking up out of the dirt. They don't get water for a year. They are dormant. I wonder if she can keep it alive?....:0-)
Pigs feet & a picture of the shoppers are the next entry. Oh, did I mention that the office had jewelery?

Happy Easter!

Cactus and rocks?

You never know what you might find as you wander around. The cactus is on the patio and the rocks were just down right cool!

Who is feeding Roadie now?

Roadie is our resident roadrunner. We think there may be 2 that come by. First it was Gail who started it all. Then, I don't know why, but Gail left so Roadie after looking around very puzzled, went over to Clay's. Sharon said the Clay "talks to that damn CHICKEN more than he talks to me!" Then after a bunch of clicks and looking around for Clay he just waits to see who will feed him next. Will it be Dave, Deb or Wyn? What does he eat? Raw hamburger. Off to Yoga. Have a great Tuesday!

Sunday Joke.

Ole and Sven were drinking buddies who worked as aircraft mechanics in Minneapolis and one day the airport was fogged in and they were stuck in the hangar with nothing to do.

Ole said, "I vish ve had somethin ta drink!"

Sven says, "Me too. Y'know, I hear you can drink dat yet fuel and get a buzz. Ya vanna try it?"

So they pour themselves a couple of glasses of high octane hooch and got completely smashed.

Next morning Ole woke up and is surprised at how good he feels. In fact he feels GREAT! NO hangover! NO bad side effects. Nothing!

The phone rang. It was Sven who asks "How iss you feelin dis mornin?"

Ole says, "I feel great. How bout you?"

Sven says, "I feel great, too. Ya don't have no hangover?"

Ole says, "No dat yet fuel iss great stuff -- no hangover, nothin. Ve oughta do dis more often."

Sven agreed."Yeah, vell, but dere's yust vun ting."

Ole asked, "Vat's dat?"

Sven questioned, "Haff you farted yet?"

Ole stopped to think. "No "

"Vell, DON'T, 'cause I'm in Iowa.

Sorry!

Sorry

I want to apologize to those who follow my blog, for my lack of blogging lately. It has been a rough last 9 months. Why? Well it all started with the loss of Jaz our 4 year old lab. Dave and I were lost without her. We still are I guess. All we could think of at the time was to get the hell out of Washington State. I am glad we couldn’t leave immediately our heads were not in the game of driving down the road. When we eventually got back to Elephant Butte, NM instead of peace we found drama. All we wanted was to settle down and enjoy our friends and have a great winter however due to several people that was an impossible task. A bunch of us came to the same conclusion which was to move to a new RV park. The move was to the other side of town but that didn’t seem far enough as the harassment continued up to three months after the move. He said, she said. What a fiasco! Nobody regrets the move. Everything fell into place. The site rent was cheaper. The laundry bill was cheaper. We were mostly in a row so the socializing was convenient and nice. It has been after all the drama, one of our best winters in New Mexico. We smiled thru the holidays. Jo, Dave’s Mom, came to visit. We had a great time introducing her to all our friends. Then the next thing, Mac gets sick. He was our 11 year old lab. He went to join the other labs that have hared our life on March 5th. March was a bad month already with Dad death on March 2 and Mom’s on March 29th. You just end up putting both feet forward one step at a time.
Soon we will be pulling out, as some already have, to go on a new adventure. We are spending the summer at Diamond Campground, Woodland Park, CO.
I promise to blog all about the new campground, people, location and the new job. Have a great summer!

Happy Birthday!

Sunday Joke.

A contestant Sally, on 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire?' had reached
the final plateau. If she answered the next question correctly, she would
win $1,000,000. If she answered incorrectly, she would pocket only the
$25,000 milestone money.

And as she suspected it would be, the million-dollar question was no
pushover. It was, 'Which of the following species of birds does not build
its own nest but instead lays its eggs in the nests of other birds? Is it:


A) the condor

B) the buzzard

C) the cuckoo

D) the vulture

The woman was on the spot. She did not know the answer.. She had used up her 50/50 Lifeline and her Ask the Audience Lifeline. All that remained was her Phone-a-Friend Lifeline. She hoped she would not have to use it because .. her friend was, well, blonde. But she had no alternative.

She called her friend and gave her the question and the four
choices.

The blonde responded unhesitatingly:

'That's easy. The answer is C: the cuckoo.'

The contestant had to make a decision and make it fast. She
considered employing a reverse strategy and giving Meredith any answer except the one that her friend had given her. And considering her friend was a blonde that would seem to be the logical thing to do. But her friend had responded with such confidence, such certitude, that the contestant could not help but be convinced.

'I need an answer,' said Meredith. Crossing her fingers, the
contestant said, 'C: The cuckoo.'

'Is that your final answer?'


'Yes, that is my final answer.'

And Meredith replied,

'That answer is..... Absolutely correct! You are now a millionaire!'

Three days later, the contestant hosted a party for her family and
friends, including the blonde who had helped her win the million dollars.

'Joni, I just do not know how to thank you,' said the contestant.
'How did you happen to know the right answer?'

'Oh, come on,' said the blonde... 'Everybody knows that cuckoos
don't build nests. They live in clocks.'

Sally fainted.

Sunday Joke.

Irish Nuns

Two Irish nuns have just arrived in USA by boat,
and one says to the other, "I hear that the people
in this country actually eat dogs."

"Odd," her companion replies, "but if we shall live
in America, we might as well do as the Americans do."
As they sit, they hear a push cart vendor yelling,
"Hot Dogs, get your dogs here," and they both walk
towards the hot dog cart.

"Two dogs, please!," says one. The vendor is very pleased to oblige, wraps both hot dogs in foil and hands them over. Excited, the nuns hurry to a bench and begin to unwrap their 'dogs.'
The mother superior is first to open hers.

She begins to blush, and then staring at it for a moment, leans to the other Nun and in a soft brogue whispers......

"What part did you get?"
