Inappropriate TALES FROM THE ROAD

We do a lot of driving here in rural New Mexico. Thought I would share a few inappropriate things I noticed last week in our travels.  I saw an apparently homeless man carrying his urine in a plastic garbage bag.  In the middle of nowhere Vaughn New Mexico, we saw a man handcuffed and following a deputy from the gas station.  It wasn't much a prisoner transport but where was the guy going to run to.

We also found Cinderella's abandoned carriage. You have to stop to check it out.

This quote was in Jen Hatmaker's Message from the Middle and it hit home for me. I too am a conflict avoider. Jen Hatmaker had this to say after the quote above - "I propose that silence is not better than necessary confrontation or change. It is worse. Silence is covering something up, and cover ups have never worked."

Deep Thoughts

in progress

My husband has been working on the shadow box up above for months.  It was a custom order. The majority of the shadow box is made out of Beli wood. He did all the laser work on this too.  I know when he was asked to do this project, he didn't think it would take months. I say by far this is the hardest project he has ever done. There was also the pressure of wanting to tell the story of this veteran in such way as to honor him.

Does anyone else use Merlin to identify birds?  I use it quite often when I am in my backyard.  We actually have a house sparrow nest on our patio. I know bird watching is a peak old person activitiy.

Inappropriate Thoughts

Someone asked me to do math, and it was simple math and it didn't go well. I don't math well under pressure.
