Our landscaper recently referred to October as being the “second spring.” You can see that this compass cactus agrees with him. Click on the image to enlarge.
Sunday Dinner
Lots of football today, but I took time to grill a ribeye steak (bone-in) to compliment Verna’s baked potatoes and poached asparagus. What you see here is actually two meals since we split it and still had leftovers. Click on the image to enlarge.
Classic 1956 Chevrolet Interior
We went to the classic car show and fly-in today at the Wickenburg Airport. One of the classic cars was this beautifully restored 1956 Chevrolet. I took a photo of the interior as it might have appeared new some 55 years ago. Click on the image to enlarge.
Mobile Mesquite
There is a small mesquite tree between the RV entrance and the courtyard. I had the landscaping crew trim this tree a bit so I could have a place for wind chimes and mobiles. I got a sunburst mobile at Big Lots last week. I think it adds a little fall color to the yard. Click on the image to enlarge.
My New Arizona Concealed Weapons Permit
After only a 38 day wait, my Arizona CCW permit arrived in the mail today. The DPS website says expect up to a 75 day approval cycle, so it arrived in about half that time. Verna’s permit did not arrive yet, so we’re still waiting on hers. We hope it shows up within the next few days.
Even though Arizona is a Constitutional Carry state, Verna and I got our CCW training so we can carry in the 32 other states that recognize Arizona CCW permits. There are also several perks within Arizona, like being able to carry in restaurants that serve alcohol and the background check to purchase firearms is waived for permit holders.
Bay Bay’s First Post
The Daddy gave me an account on the weblog. That means that I can post stuff I want to put in the on-line family diary.
The Mama took a picture of me and bear getting snacks from the Daddy. When I stand on my back legs, I’m as tall as bear! The snacks are good too.
