The Living Desert

Natalia had another field trip this week and this one took us to the Living Desert Zoo. It was a very nice place to visit with very nice presentations and gardens. On the way back home I saw the huge dinosaurs by Morongo and stopped so Natalia can see it since these giants were part of PeeWee's Big Adventure movie. A movie she has been watching much lately and she was very surprised at this.

This week Natalia was again sick and I got sick as well. All our time after the Zoo was spent at home being comfortable.

Well, it was 50 books to check out for the prize and that didn't happen for us. We hit 40 books instead. I on the other hand am still reading Babbit. So far this year I am reading at a much slower pace. Apart from reading this week, House Of Cards was put up. I got through the whole season in two nights and another cliff hanger.

We got a little snow this past week after expecting at least a foot of snow from all the forecasters. Just goes to show everyone forecasting is a guessing game. One thing that happened to me this week was the day I was expecting to have to dig the berm to get in my driveway, I found a surprise. As I pulled up I noticed someone shoveled the driveway for me by hand. What a great surprise and Thanks! Pay it forward some said. True, I have in the past cleaned up neighbors driveways, so maybe this was my payback.

Marvel Legendary has hit my game table again and trying many more combinations. Hoping to have some money saved up and get a few more expansions for even more combinations. This coming week I look forward to using the Fantastic Four in their fight with the Mole Man and Galactus. I am sure Natalia will join me in the quest. This is a great solo game that keeps me going back to.
