Of course, I baked an Apple Pie for Two to respect the day. Did yous mean value I wouldn't? Yeah, non on the diet, only that's okay.


Besides...I've come upwards to realize that at our age, dieting is going to hold upwards an ongoing affair. The Cooking Light Diet gives me a route map to move from, only I'm e'er making sensible substitutions too taking a repast (or a dessert) off directly too then. As long every bit nosotros stick to it to a greater extent than days than not, nosotros should hold upwards able to lose, too and thus keep our weight. It's all big talk. We'll encounter if it works inwards practice.

While I was waiting for the pie to bake, I was working on my embroidery. Sadie was helping amongst all 4 paws. She actually loves to assistance when I opened upwards up a novel skein of floss too air current it onto its floss bobbin.


As I'm certain yous tin sack imagine, it all goes fabulously. And accept a await at that picture. I'd tell Miss Sadie is a Southpaw.

Also, I received around pictures from Mae dorsum home. They received my swap postcard yesterday. Do yous mean value this envelope gave it away?


So I asked them to opened upwards too break it, too oh my goodness. How cute is this?!? Of course of report my prompt give-and-take was "Cat," if yous hadn't guessed it already. My partner, Karen, made this piddling truthful cat postcard for me.


Here's the message from the back.


That reference to the Wind Cave National Park warmed my mortal because it was the get-go long RV trip Mike too I took when nosotros purchased our get-go RV dorsum inwards the early on 2000's. We wanted to instruct around identify nosotros hadn't been before. I looked inwards a national parks mass I had from a geology degree taken at the community college bird too works life the Wind Cave inwards South Dakota. When people asked us where nosotros were going on vacation, I tin sack recollect saying, good fasten your seatbelt because it's the around glamorous opor-garai ever: South Dakota! And, patch I was speaking natural language inwards cheek, I actually had no see the process that was inwards shop for us.


It you've non heard of the Wind Cave, it's an interesting place. The prototype inwards a higher identify shows the 1 natural entrance to the cave. It's opened upwards for touring, only through a man-made entrance built during the early on 20th Century.

One of our around cherished memories from that trip was climbing to the transcend of this burn tower


too gazing out across the opened upwards prairie grasslands.


It was slow to imagine the early on settlers crossing this vast surface area every bit they moved west.


This southwest corner of South Dakota is beautiful. If you've never been, it's good worth planning a trip to encounter it. You tin sack also encounter Custer State Park too brand around novel friends.


We were newbie RVers then, too I had to move out of the truck too spotter every bit Mike towed our RV (much smaller than the 1 nosotros guide hold now) through The Needles.


Also correct nearby...Mt. Rushmore...you likewise tin sack accept the requisite selfie!


So, yeah, Karen. Thank yous thus much for the adorable postcard too for reminding me of the Wind Cave. It was a prissy piddling trip downwards retentiveness lane, too I completely agree...it's unforgettable.

The weather condition has been mutual frigidity too drizzly again, although there's around clearing every bit I write this. My side yesteryear side movement is to instruct dressed too move out for a walk. I took yesterday off, too thus I desire to instruct dorsum at it 1 time to a greater extent than today.

Don't forget to swallow a slice of pie today.
