The first Sunday, I went to Bunco again at Linda's beautiful house. I had a great time, and met some new people. I lost, though! Bummer! I still had a great time, though!
I went walking on both Wednesdays. Rosemary is out of town, so the first Wednesday, I talked to Larry, and the second Wednesday, I talked to Sue . . . who I had met at Bunco. Sue and I and Nancy, who we also walked with, all talked about going on the tougher hikes together, so we don't have to feel guilty about going slow! I am one of the youngest of this group, and they are all so much more fit than I am. It's downright embarrassing, is what it is!
I had a blast again last Friday with square dancing. I'm learning some really advanced steps now, and I get called in a lot for the regular dancing. I still need some pushing and pulling to get to the right places sometimes, but I'm doing a lot better. And the people are all very understanding and supportive.
Oh, yeah. Pam brought a new puppy home! He looks just like Marley from the movie, and so he is named Marley! This puppy is a sweety. I could fall in love with this one, but I really want a border collie or a border collie mix, and he's a retriever. But, oh what a little sweetheart he is. He's been here a couple weeks already, and he's going back tomorrow. But, Pam thinks she already found someone to adopt him, so he won't be at the humane society long. This is one sweet pup!
The other picture is of a Hereford/Holstein cross steer. He moved in down the street a few weeks ago. I talk to him every day when I walk by. He usually picks up his head. Sometimes he even moos at me. I stopped and talked to his owner a few days ago, and found out his name is Porkchop. But, I decided that he likes Porky better, so that's what I've started to call him. Before I knew his name, I was just calling him Bovine. He didn't seem to mind. He's a couple blocks away from my house, but sometimes when the wind is just right . . . or something . . . I can hear him mooing from home.
I had to switch my car insurance over from New Mexico to Colorado. I didn't know what agent to choose since there are a lot in Durango, so I let the New Mexico place choose for me. They chose just right! I went in and talked to Holly. Not only was she wonderful to work with, but as we talked, I found out that she was in Oregon when Rajneesh aka Osho (from the ashram) was there! She even drew a picture of him when she was in high school, and she's going to try to find it for me! This is another synchronicity, which I believe is the universe's way of saying that you're on the right track!
This past Thursday night, I went to my first meeting of the Archeology Club. They had a great presentation of a guy who had worked at several national parks that had ancient ruins. He had lots of cool pictures and stories to go with them. It was nice. While I was there, I signed up for another hike that's in about two months.
Friday night square dancing was a blast as usual. I found out that when I officially graduate, I get my own name tag as my entrance into the club! Cool!
