Last time you used that phrase or look ? Coming back home after being in Denver for Mother's Day weekend I came upon a construction zone west of Vail. The lanes were merged with the orange cones in place when this guy behind me almost tried to pass me. Good thing he didn't as right around the corner was a state patrolman parked behind a front end loader.

Happy Thursday everyone! Finally the rain arrived. I'm glad it rained (for a few minutes at least) - it has been dry for more than two weeks and watering the lawn and the flower beds is really boring

Today's Question(s):

How far do you live from the nearest:

Hospital ? 5-8 minutes
Fire department ? 3 minutes (yes we live in a small town )
Library ? 10 minutes in the next "bigger" city but I only go to the library near my office (2 minutes from the office) that's easier for me.


Extra Credit Question:

lol,Last time you wanted to "run away from home" ? The day before yesterday. DS was at his best when time for bed came I thought I could use some alone time right now I guess this situation will happen more often than not from now on.


Just for Fun:

Any golf fans that will be watching the TPC Players Championship the next few days ? No.

(if so you will be seeing my town !! it is being held about 15 miles from where we live)

Oh, I didn't expect a German word to appear here

Have a wonderful day, the weekend is near.
