Hot August Nights

So we made a quick trip up to Lewiston last weekend for Hot August Nights, The big car show they have in August. My dad had entered the old truck and we showed up Friday night for the cruise. Too bad there was a carboration problem and it ran like crap. We did make a couple of trips around the loop before we decided to just park it. I did get to see Starship in the parks amphitheater, They were pretty good only one original band member and he is ancient. When the concert was over we wandered around downtown for a while before calling it a night, after all Saturday was going to be a busy day.

Saturday morning we all got up early and had breakfast and my dad and me drove the truck downtown to find a good spot in the show. 7 am and the place is already hopping, we got a sweet spot in the shade (which was awesome in the afternoon when it got hot) and started polishing ever thing up.
















It wasn't the best polish job but I think that it turned out OK. There was lots of wandering and chatting with other car owners and fans. All in all it was a great day. When the show was over it was time to head up to Moscow for the night to visit our son Rob and his new girlfriend. Nice girl, not sure what she she sees in him but they both look happy and that makes me happy. We visited until about 1 am and get some rest for the trip home.
Sunday morning we meet at the Breakfast Club (for breakfast) Visit for a while and then head home.

Awesome weekend, didn't win anything at the show but that is OK, got to meet a lot of great people and eat some good food.

OH WHOA IS ME, BUT WHAT A RELIEF.

So for all of you who are asking Harley is better, Oh who am I kidding no one really asked I'm not so sure any one is really reading this. I will just have to keep pretending that I have thousands of fans who can't wait to see what crazy thing is going to happen next.

Any hoo, So the house that Aarin and I wanted to buy, SOLD! That is not a bad thing because it opened up more options. I always thought that we wanted was a house where we could have cows and chickens and what not, what I never realized was that what I really wanted was a live Bass pond in my back yard. I got to thinking "huh feed and water animals and take care of the land or sit in the back yard, drink beer and fish." Kinda' a no brainer.

We drove around yesterday looking at property trying to narrow down our possibilities, I had chosen 15 houses that I thought looked promising and we narrowed it down to 3. Well 2 really but we kept one just because we don't want to rule out what might be a diamond in the rough.

Well that is all I have right now, Please stay tuned.............

Sick Baby!

So Harley, the one eyed no tail havin' major head trauma special kitten, heard me opening the tuna can yesterday. The next thing I know I have a cat climbing my leg trying to get the can, which is quite a feat considering she doesn't have any front claws. Well I just couldn't let her starve to death, Which she obviously was going to do post haste, so I gave here all of the water off of the can. I almost lost my hand trying to place the bowl on the floor, 10 seconds later when it was gone I got the Oliver Twist treatment "Please sir may I have some more?" at which I laughed in her face and kicked her across the room. Just kidding, I gave her a nice big waller and sent her on her way.




This morning I thought she was DEAD! The poor baby got sick with the Vomit and diarrhea (clear diarrhea) She was just laying in a pool of her own mess not moving or nothing, barely able to even flick the stub tail. So Aarin wrapped her cold flat limp body in a nice towel and put her on the bed to rest.

She is getting a little better, I just checked on her and she is still wrapped up in the blanket but she lifted her head and started to purr when I came in the room. We will be keeping an eye on her for a while, She has had such a rough life so far I hate to take her to the vet again.

Please stay tuned...........
