birthday
Isabel turns 15 today. We had a cinnamon roll, sausage, scrambled, buttery breakfast potato breakfast. She opened gifts, and we have a white napkin Italian dinner planned. Lots to be happy about, but when you're 15, and COVID is snowing on your party (snowed 6" last night), it feels more like this...
Happy Birthday Isabel
now go wash your hands ;-)
distancing
Chilly today, but the spring sun and furry friends seem to shorten the distance to other important things.
bridge building
It has to span 21 inches, weigh no more than 3 oz. and be made exclusively of toothpicks and glue. Last year the winning design held 153 lbs.
custom
Isabel wanted a different bed... I gave her some graph paper, a tape measure and told her to show me what she wanted. Today she put blade to wood (she really did make most of the cuts) and with a couple more Saturdays of work, she'll have a a custom bed of her own design. While not really an upgrade from THIS, I'm sure the dogs are gonna love this one.
no replacement
Clarke would of been 10 today... While Ozzy's no replacement, I think Clarke would approve.
yellowstone
An endless snowstorm made for white knuckles, hard miles, and closed roads. Gusty winds had wildlife hunkered down, and hard to find. Despite the epic weather, Sparky and I managed some fun, a few photos, and lotsa memories.
