(no subject)

first ride since Tuesday (or Wed, I can't remember) and then it rained and rained and rained, plus there was Thanksgiving and 500 miles of driving and two parents and all Al's family including stair-stepped boy cousins and a brand new baby girl who let me hold her for ever so long and grinned and drooled on me in the best way. The boy cousins found Alice's willingness to romp with them fabulous, and she has a posse all her own whenever she shows up next.

I am looking for a place to put Bully with an indoor, so I can pursue my dream through the cold, rainy, windy nights - I found one closer to the Canadians, which would be amazingly much easier than life is right now, and I am still driving around talking to people and listening to stories and feeling out places. I don't think I'll find a perfect place, but something will work.
