Ruby, Emerald, GoldAbsolutely nothing happening today. Flew down to the clinic before they closed at noon, that went as usual. Went to Ridley's and got some nail polish remover so I could do a manicure and will get that finished, did the feet this morning. I got all involved in sorting out some of my back up photos which are on the external hard drive. That is in such a mess. Each time I ask "it" to backup periodically, "it" just copies everything again, so I have waaaay to much in there, copies on copies on copies, instead of just choosing to save what is new. I have to do more studying to figure out how to ask it not to resave what is already in there. I haven't even looked at email yet and now is 5 p.m. so that will probably be after dinner. Perhaps not a bad thing to ignore it once in a while.
Debbie called and we had a nice talk. Tayler has been home from UNLV Reno and will go back to school in the morning. Guess she has a new boyfriend also from Vegas who is going to Reno too. Debbie says he is nice. They are thinking of coming up in the middle of April maybe. When they left it seemed like a long time before they would come back but now it's only a couple of months. They are going to go through the house and property and fix things that need to be done. I have a fair sized list.
Joe likes batter fried catfish so guess I'll fix that tonight. I don't like to do fried food, but he likes it best. Just fry everything and he'd be happy.
Weather wise it's been a nice day, lots of sun anyway. I made the dog's stay outside for several hours, so they slept on the deck instead of sleeping in the house. Not sure what that accomplished.
an American icon of painting passed away yesterday--Andrew Wyeth--died in his sleep at 91 after a long life of art and expression. His father, Newell Convers Wyeth created some incredibly beautiful works in value and design that made him the pillar of American Illustration of the first half of the last century. Andrew was most well known for his delicate portrait of "Christina'a World"--the young girl in the field looking away from us toward a farm house.
The blurb about the diner was in the paper. It has been in the reconstruction process for several years now. So Gina and I were talking about going down there to eat one of these days. Guess it may have been in one of the Spiderman movies - not sure about that. They started with a horrible shell of a place, and the pictures look like it's very nicely done now. If you're not from around these parts, LaBarge is a tiny town on the southern border of Sublette County - maybe a long hour's drive.
