Remember my utterly fascinating and riveting series on manhole covers? I now have many people noticing various manhole covers - everywhere. I snapped a picture of this one on our recent trip to Issaquah (Seattle) to see the kids. This was in the parking lot of the strip center in Bellevue, WA where we went to a bridal shop. I loved it. Succinct and to the point. It is a drain.

2013: 02 06 - Sally
It was a gorgeous day today, warm and sunny, and not like early February at all. I decided to go for a walk and felt sorry for the Dumb Butt so I took her. (Ray can't walk that much yet.) Very quickly, it was more like Sally was taking me for a walk. That is me, on the other end of the leash (out of the picture) at Cherokee Park, near the house.

2013: 02 05 - Goodbye, Wound Clinic
Ray has finally been release from the Wound Clinic, after six months! Today was his last appointment to have his foot checked. The skin is very thin, but at least it is healed over. The doc told us to not swim for about two weeks to let the foot toughen up. But he is released! Of course, he has been release before and it re-opened. This time, we will be more careful about watching it.

2013: 02 04 - Quilting at Church
Today was the first day in three months that I have been home to go to Quilters at church. I hauled my machine to church so that I could sew on the quilt while the others quilted on the quilt in progress. I think that this is also the first time that I have turned on my machine in three months. It was great to sew again, and the group is perfectly happy to let me sew on the quilt.

2013: 02 03 - Safari motorcycles
Today, we went to the annual Safari Club Expo at the OP Convention Center. We went specifically to look for and talk to outfitters about taking a safari to Africa next year. But something shiny caught Ray's eye. There, with the other 4-wheelers and hunting jeeps, was a bike and sidecar. This is a Ural which he explained was a Russian motorcycle that is copied from a 1939 BMW motorcycle and was introduced to the Red Army in 1942. This is a 2012 bike, and was used commonly in WWII. Oh yeah, we found a couple of safari's that looked like what Ray was looking for.

2013: 02 02 - Hot Dish
The inspiration for today's entry comes courtesy of Grey's Anatomy. Christina, one of the main characters, is currently in Minnesota. One of her patient's family brought her a 'Hot Dish' casserole. Ray looked it up on the internet and found the recipe. It is basically hamburger, cream of mushroom soup, cheese, and tater tots. It wasn't all that good so we decided that the recipe was not a keeper. Funny, but not a keeper.
