We've been gone a month now!

Osprey

Wood ducks, Mallards, and ?

Egret

Our walk this morning was lovely as you can see!  The day started out cold, but we had sunshine and 84 by mid-afternoon!! By Thursday it is supposed to be barely 50 and rainy. We enjoy the nice days as we get them!!  It's hard to believe we have been gone for a month and been in Santee for two weeks already.  Seems like a lot longer :-)

I spent a good portion of the day dealing with the USPS and with Nevada DMV!  Our rent for the post office box is due.  The invoice is sitting in our box!  Because they dropped it in there it never got mailed, thus, never got forwarded.  I had a note on my calendar for today to remember to pay it.  I ended up doing it on-line, but only after a conversation with a Sparks post office employee who was slightly helpful.  The DMV - our notice for the truck tag renewal hasn't made it to us, either.  Not forwarded? Sitting in the mail box?  Who knows?  I emailed DMV late yesterday and got a very helpful reply this morning!  They will accept California smog certification, so once that's done I can fax all the info in and we are good to go.  Bureaucracy!  Love it!!

Well, Roger finally gave in!  My Christmas decorations are complete now that I have a snow person!!!  We were at Goodwill looking for a rug for the dog to put under the RV where she likes to be and he spotted Mr. Snowman and bought it for me.  What a guy!!!  This is why I like him so much!!  Just realized that the snowman is designed to sit on a mantel and hold a christmas stocking - no wonder the thing is so darned heavy - duh!!  It's perfect, though!
