London too. And one month from today we'll be starting up the Inside Passage on our Alaskan cruise. Between then and now it will definitely be "Evénements cherchent organization!" Have a great day!

I keep thinking of your infrequent, solo hotel stays just to give yourself some space and relaxation. Such awesome breaks! The snake freaked me out for sure, but not for long! I know the park has lots of them, but they are pretty canny at hiding out. I hope that you are having a lovely day!

I wish I could get up to Breck right now, even if it is mud season. I'm not sure if I'll make it before the fall. We have a busy, traveling summer planned.

We can spell each other too, when the workers are here. Jose has a great little company, but regardless, I wouldn't have workers in the house without one of us here. Next up will be redoing our large deck outside, but we have to fit into Jose's schedule, so I'm not sure just when that will happen. He and his crew are very much in demand.<br /> <br />I often think of Samantha and her twitching nose that got those things done so quickly. I never understood Darrin and his disapproval of Samantha using her powers to take care of housework and such. Terry would be saying, "Have at it, Babe!" <br /><br />I hope all is well with you and Don! I'll be by soon, I promise!

I can't wait! And I get to thoroughly clean the walls and shelves in our closet and reorganize my things ~ leaving hubby to reorganize his, btw! I love being organized! Clutter and chaos, which I'm in the middle of right now, is highly stressful for me. I hope all is well with you.

And we went out...I so enjoyed the pampering, Alex! And we went out to dinner to boot because the work crew didn't leave our home last night until 6:30. By the time we had picked out a new toilet and shower head (why stop with new flooring ~ spontaneous decision) and gotten to Parkway, it was going on eight, and I was hungry ~ so hungry we caved and split barbecued ribs. I love ribs, but we only have them once every couple of years. There's a silver lining in every cloud!<br /><br />Bull snakes aren't poisonous. They are constrictors rather than venomous strikers. They will bite if they feel threatened, but usually they try to slip away. They look a lot like rattlers and even imitate rattlers in their behaviors. If something big, like a human, gets too close, they rear and hump trying to make themselves look bigger. That snake's humps in the grass looked just like a sea monster in the ocean ~ It's coiling and humping scared the hell out of me. They can hiss, snort, and shake a fake rattle, but this one didn't. I was so intent on shooting a nearby redwing that I forgot to watch for snakes. But I got to snap photos of the snake instead ~ The largest snake I've seen in the wild, btw. A guy, pushing a stroller, came up behind me on the bike path. He said, "I saw you jump back, but then you stayed!" How often do you get to take photos of something like that! LOL! Have a good one, Alex!
