Well, went to pick up my doggie this morning. Kiara spent the first hour of the ride home licking us (hard to drive and pet a Pyr at the same time). I haven't seen her this happy in a long time. She has to stay in the dog pen for a couple more days until her sutures are sufficiently sealed that she can go out and roll in the dirt. The vet's bill made me slightly faint ... $999.45 !!! (plus $45.50 for gas for two trips) Well, I own the 45 cents, but not the rest, so it all had to go on a credit card. Now there's nothing left to get that new riding mower this place so desperately needs, but she's more important than manicured grass and weeds.
Oh, here's a "just for fun" comparison of where you live versus where I live. Imagine you are going to drive 80 miles down the highway, then turn around and go home. Do this once on Thursday evening and once on Tuesday morning. Other than when you actually get inside the city limits of the town that is your destination, 1) how many cars will you encounter going the same direction as you are (either in front of you or behind you (round trip)), and 2) how many will you see in the oncoming lanes (round trip)? Be honest and count
all the cars for both directions and both days. My answer is below the picture.

1) one and 2) four - kinda desolate out here in the middle of nowhere, huh? Make sure you have emergency supplies in your vehicles 'cuz ain't no one coming for awhile...
