Our dear friend Stephen has returned from fishing in Alaska -- alive and unharmed. Yay! Mr. John Dickey is in Moablandia wearing a shirt that says, "I heart hot moms." He's getting married in a few short weeks, but his eternally patient wife-to-be is letting him hang out with us. Yay again! Lisagrrr is thinking about skipping work to go play pool with us tonight. Yay some more! All dogs are hot, panting, and bored stiff. And finally, p.Kitty, international cat of mystery, has yet to be seen today. Not surprising.

Mill Creek today was dry -- super yay! Conditions are great and there is hope that fall is in the air. Things are lookin' up here in Moab.
