What used to be a blog about experiencing the places and cultures of the world has morphed into one of living in my adopted home of Wyoming.

April trip to Houston
I traveled to Houston on April 23 through May 2 recently for work - a very productive trip. In addition, I was able to visit family and friends while there - including one friend I haven't seen in 20 years!!! Here are a few snapshots from that trip -
Me & Brad Moore at his new Big Star Bar - I'm indicating to Martin where the photo button is on the camera, and nothing more -
Martin, me & Patrica. Martin looks this way because he's trying to hold the camera far enough away for a good portrait, after some failed attempts...this one he's got!
Me and my Sister From Another Mother - Patricia Hernandez
Friday Night at Poison Girl
Somehow, San Felipe is *still* under construction.
Kyle sleeping with Sienna
Aunt Kristi and Casey
Meanwhile, back home, the Lilacs have blooomed!!

Singapore Daydreaming
Got a nice card from my friends at Lanson Place, where I lived in Singapore. Gotta love Google Earth: here is an aerial image of the roooftop pool. It's over the bridge between two buildings, just above the caption...

Ice Storm.......woo hoo!
So, we've had a tiny recent ice storm. It was actually sleet, but on top of a thin layer of snow and ice. The problem was that the temp was 32, and the sleet had been coming down for hours. So, everything - I mean everything - was coated with ice. The hard part? 32 was to be the warmest temp for several days. It's Sunday, December 21st, the first official day of winter. Appropriately enough, the temp outside is 7, but with the wind - gusting up to 40 mph - the wind chill temp is between -15 and -20. But today, at least, it's half-assed sunny. The next time we move above the freezing point is Wednesday, on Christmas Eve, when we'll hit 40 -with rain. yay, wintertime in NW Ohio...
The hard part for some folks in town is tree deadfall and downed power lines. Fortunately I haven't experienced that yet - but as a backup plan, I can always walk to work a half mile away - and make coffee! Oh, and I'm all set with a ton of wood and a wood stove. At any rate, here are some photos of our ice, which is going to be around for a few more days -
For this one, I was outside, and though sheltered, still couldn't avoid the falling sleet.
Brrr!!!

My Animals are So Great.....
Of course, any animal parent would say the same, but mine really are. In case you've been wondering how Djiini & Kathman are doing, here are some updates!
Below, Kathman is on one of his favorite posts, on top of the wall unit...that angled thing behind him is actually the narrow stairway to the upstairs.
Djiini, who is notorious about avoiding a camera at all costs, must have let her guard down for me to capture this one. I love her death-ray aimed at Kathman, who was inadvertently walking by a hidden doggie bone.
And finally, Kathman has decided to learn to read. He loves to sit on the TV stand - in this case, he seems really interested in Humana's health benefits for AARP members.

Smart Squirrels!
I found this out in the front crabapple tree the other day - it's a small gourd that was part of my Halloween yard decorations. The squirrels (there are 2 that live in the back yard and play in the front) wedged it into the fork of two branches, resulting in a little gourd-ateria!
