  • Cute Little Pig with a Waggly Tail

    We saw this cute little pot-bellied pig on South Congress Street in front of Zen Japanese Food Fast. This pig (named Chorizo, which is Spanish for sausage) is owned by the same man who owns the restaurant. In the video, he tells as woman who asks if she can pet him that he just wet him down because he was hot. The woman says she used to own 13 of them and raise them. Then he says, “His name’s Chorizo…” 😉

    I uploaded this the night Flickr opened its doors to video. I know this would have been more timely news had I blogged it then, but better late than never. Anyhoo, enjoy the cute piggly-wiggly!

    I saw this beautiful bare tree stretched out against a sky whose clouds were similarly stretched out. It’s not exactly the iconic view of Tonto Natural Bridge, but it’s my favorite image from the visit.

  • Andy and me having fun on Creek Street, Ketchikan, AK

    Andy shot this video while we we enjoying our time in Ketchikan, AK on the Alaskan cruise we took in June. Here, he shows the Creek flowing under Creek Street and we have fun discussing the bawdy history of Dolly’s.

  • Cordial Glasses in Antique Store

    The amazing thing about these is that I inherited 5 glasses like this from my grandmother, who did at one time live in Prescott. I wonder if she bought them there. Does anyone know anything about the provenance of these glasses?

    They have no mark on the bottom, and they look hand blown (each one is unique). The lady in the store was kind enough to sell me just the two yellow-green glasses on the front left, because those are the ones that look like my grandmother’s.
