New Plates!

Today has been great. This afternoon we met Kinky for lunch, in Kerrville, so we could catch up with each others news. Lunch with Kink was a lot of fun and was filled with laughter. We talked about the rescue ranch, Toto's deteriorating health issues, a little politics, which is one of Tony's and my least favorite subjects and about him running into our dear friends, Walt and Cheryl, at the San Antonio airport.

"Someone stole one of my license plates in the airport parking lot," Kinky told us.

"Did you call the police?" I asked.

"No, because I am going to the Court House, after we eat lunch, to renew them. That's when I'll report it stolen..."

After lunch, T. and I ran a few errands and then we came home, and then after talking to Kinky on the phone, we went over to the Lodge to visit with him and Marcie. While Tony was helping Kinky put  his new plates on Mr. Green Jeans, Tone said, "Kinky, who ever stole your license plate, was at least nice enough to put the screws back on..."

When they had completed their "Put new plates on Mr. Green Jeans" mission, I showed off Tony's pink dragonfly picture to Marcie and Kinky and they totally loved it, so Tony gave his picture to Marcie, so she could get it framed. Then after a fun visit with them, Trigger took us back home, so I could return a few phone calls and Tony could go outside to try to capture more beautiful dragonflies, using his camera.

While Tony was outside, Sandy and Jon called me. "....Nancy, please tell Tony that we have a beautiful dragonfly poster for him, at the bookstore and the pink dragonfly is on it and it has a name...."

For the last four days, I have faithfully walked four miles everyday with Leslie Sansone, to help me lose weight and I need to walk four miles now, so I guess that is about it for today.

Y'all have a great evening!

Pink!

Today has been great. Tony's and my second loaf of No Knead Bread turned our perfect again. The reason that I am not calling it my bread is, I do all of the mixing, timing and baking, but I need Tony to help remove the lid and do all the lifting of his dutch oven, so we are now a team of bread makers.

Kinky called me today, from an airport in California, to check on us and to just say, "Hi," and to tell me that he will be back at the ranch tomorrow afternoon and I am so glad, because he has been gone for nearly a week and we have missed him.

Late this afternoon, after taking a sleepless nap with my fur family, Tony and I decided that we would watch a movie this evening, but not until he went outside to take some more pictures.

While I was outside watering our plants in Outer Space, Tony came driving up on Kermit, wearing a big grin on his face. "Are you ready to watch the movie with me?" I asked, as I poured out the last drop of water onto the Ivy.

 "Not yet, Nance, you are not going to believe what I've got for you! I need to download it first on my computer and then I'll show it to you. I promise that you are going to love it! Then we will watch the movie. Okay?"

"Okay," I said, wondering what in the world he wanted to show to me.

Minutes later, T. came down the hallway, into the big room and said, "Look, Nance. I can't believe this!" And when I looked at his computer screen, I couldn't believe it either.

"I took this photograph especially for you," Tony said, "I never knew that there were pink dragonflies."

"Me, neither. I absolutely love it. Tony, your photography has become awesome. Why don't you let me help you put together an e-book, of some of your best photos...."

And that is about it for tonight, because we are fixin' to watch a movie.

Y'all have a great evening!
