Yesterday, phase one of the "catio" mission was completed as the concrete people finished up their thing. A cement mixer spun out front as two men tag-teamed several wheelbarrows. Now we wait for phase two.
The photo reminds me that I need to get back on my driveway crack weeds. Recall that I'd hoped to find a good tool to help with the job, but googling "crack hoe" brought up much irrelevance, along with a few useful suggestions.
Yesterday, we went out to do some tire-kicking. We're shopping for a new vehicle. We have two smallish vehicles that are economically wonderful, but not so great when it comes to getting around in the snow or getting out to the boonies. We live in Colorado = snow and boonies... winter's coming.
We have a model in mind and went to a nearby dealership to check one out, but the object of our affection had been put to work as a service loaner. Will they now keep it in the service loaner fleet? I'd say it no longer counts as "new" if put up for sale. Bottom line, we didn't test or purchase anything.
I currently live in the hometown of Colorado State, but my alma matre is Colorado-Boulder. I wouldn't mind living in Boulder now, but who can afford it? (I seriously wonder)
Clearly, CU has the more appealing mascot. I don't know why CSU's mascot has such a grumpy face.
In other news, I spent time yesterday researching menopause. (Sorry, guys. Feel free to leave now, I won't be offended). Geesh, what a can of worms. If menstruation's a "curse", menopause is the not-so-nice sequel. I think I feel fine, for the most part, but maybe my brain's too foggy to know any better? Maybe I shouldn't have researched, and ignorance is bliss.
Magnum and I took a gratifying bike ride this morning. We stopped by an "[Open Streets]" event happening today.
I finally learned how to put my bicycle on the metro bus rack. Oh, the possiblities...

I love Chick-Fil-A....
John, it's SO good... and so darn friendly.
Never been to a chick fil a. I'm the one.
I love CarMax. You can tire kick all day and not be bothered until you ask for someone to bother you. I've gotten cars there new, used and almost new. I have gotten 5 cars from there and it's always wonderful. No hassle. Did our homework and went into see what they had. No salesmen is the main reason we went there. If you have one there - try it. You'll never go back to a regular auto dealership and have to haggle.
Peggy, thanks for the tip! We sold a vehicle to CarMax a few years ago. No muss, no fuss! Hadn't thought to go there for a purchase.
