No title.

I hate coming up with creative and catchy titles... this entry won't be getting one... cuz I'm not feelin' it.



Moving on...

So, our ancient, but hearty (hey it lasted almost 15 years and these days that's a LONG time) DVD player finally bit the dust the other day, so I've been forced to rely on Netflix while I lie around (such a hardship ;-p).

Anyway, last night whilst waiting to go to the airport to retrieve The Lovely Barbara, I came across 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid'... I freakin' LOVE that show!... but in particular the bicycle scene... not to mention that it was filmed in one of my most fave places on the planet... right outside Zion National Park in the ghost town of Grafton, Utah (went there all the time as a girl).  Love the song, too... listened to it over and over on the 8-track when I was a kiddo.  I remember when I was young though that something always troubled me about Butch and Etta (Paul and Katharine) cruisin' around the apple orchard because I was worried about the chemistry between them... I couldn't stand the thought of Etta cheating on The Kid.  Watching it for the first time since I was VERY young last night, I sort of wish she'd "met Butch first"... he was a pretty nice guy.

Playing an old game.....

..... Ally and I. It happened as we were driving down Ustick Rd. the other day and saw a car with a Hawaii license plate.... then 20 seconds later Connecticut and Pennsylvania.  Now, if you've never been on Ustick Rd, you might not understand the significance of that. Ally got Alaska yesterday. Guess I better get out more.

Thanksforgiving

'Thanksforgiving' is the title to my Thanksgiving Pinterest board.... And now looking at it, I just saw it in a whole new way.... thanks + forgiving... instead of, or in addition to thanks + for + giving Interesting.... wouldn't it be awesome if we all could just forgive others of their shortcomings and be grateful for them as they are and accept them at face value instead.... the way we hope they look at us? Today I think of so many things.... What comes to mind: St. George - spent many Thanksgivings there while growing up and always spent time horseback riding over that weekend 4-day school vacation Dang!  In the middle of making this list I just remembered I forgot to make the Corn Soup... ugh... The 'Turkey Bowl' LeSueur Pumpkin Crunch Torte... I made a half this year which is baking (hopefully... something's up with my oven) as I type.... and man oh man, it sure smells good!
