    Mags- so beautiful. I am glad you have a cruise to look forward to down the line, really important.

    I am going to disappear now for the next week as I head into one day of work tomorrow and my final day of preparations before I head north to the jazz festival Tuesday through Sunday. I hope everyone here has a good week, continued recovery from your surgeries, easy treatments, and that you can enjoy the simple pleasures of summer time. 

    I will check in when I am back and settled, sometime after the 22nd! I will miss you!

    Oh that's my t-shirt for sure.

    Teka that pi is my DD2 favorite, I remember when she was a kid she didn't want a cake, she wanted that pie. So no one else wanted it--so I had a cake too.

    Good Morning Hermmies.

    Wow Teka that's nice for u to do that. I'm back to opening up soup cans like so many years ago, but the soup is much better now. Oh and eggs. Not green. Well mine can be sometimes.

    I hope everyone has a great day today and the weather is good for u--right now it's a little iffy with some watches and warnings. but hopefully it will be over soon. And all ill be clear.

    Hi folks- hoping to leave this morning, but things are up in the air. My friend has not been feeling well since late last week, and thought she had a dental infection. This has happened to me before trips before and she got some antibiotics and thought we were good to go. But late yesterday, bit down on something and found a molar in the back is loose! So she is talking to the dentist this morning to find out what can be done today to perhaps stabilize the tooth until she can get it removed.  She thought about having it pulled and going and I said "not a good idea!"

    I am packed and working on house things to be ready to go today, if we can. But if for any reason, we cannot, I am going to go in to work tomorrow and finish working out the week to make money. We will both be out $300 for the jazz passes, but fortunately no hotel reservation, plane tix, or the like involved. It would be disappointing to miss this long awaited vacation, but I thought it through over the weekend because things seemed so iffy, and decided it would not be the end of the world if it does not happen.  Everything is relative in the scheme of things, eh?

    I should know in the next hour what the plan is for today and still hopeful the dentist will have a solution for her so we can go. But I told her "health first" and we cannot go if anything bigger is going on. So if you see me back here in the next few days, you will know and if you don't, you will know we went! 

    Fingers crossed here.We could use a little luck and a good dentist!

    Cami, that's quite a medical team you have.  Your VIP status must have brought the extra attention.

    Jazzy, happy you are safe and sound at the jazz festival.

    Oh Sally I share everything, I have no problem---it went fine, I sang my song and when my feet were in the stirrups I told the Doc my legs haven't been in that position for anyone in a long time, and it's true and we talked and laughed and it was easy, she took a biopsy but did say nothing looked funky so I still have all the UTI's with no reason LOL. and the Blood is just part of the infection, I knew I didn't really need one but Doc don't listen to me ever.

    Oh I bet Jazzy is having a great time. I'm glad too. OK I'll probably sleep most of the day, we'll see.

    Cami, glad to hear that you could joke with the doc and that nothing "funky" was seen.  Happy sleeping today.

    Jazzy, I bet you feel relaxed ... at least I hope so.

    Hi hermits- just a quick hi to say the first night of the jazz festival was fabulous. It featured Trombone Shorty, who is just the most amazing horn player, singer and dancer! He also had guest John Boutte, who is a New Orleans vocalist and who wrote and performed the theme song for "Treme" on HBO, if you watched any of that while it was running. Both Trombone Shorty and Boutte were on that show performing through several seasons. They were rocking the jazz festival last night, and brought the house down!

    This morning gift as I drank my coffee and looking out over the lake, there were two young bucks who came up through the meadow right in front of the house. So lovely. Lots of wildlife up here from bald eagles, to deer, to magpies and chipmunks. We are still hopeful to see some bighorn sheep, which are common in the Rockies.

    Here is the view from the house. Did not have my better camera this morning upstairs to get any decent pics of the deer. I will let you imagine them coming up through that meadow.

    Teka- friend is not really feeling all that great with the dental issue, but the plans this week just got adapted to address that and not overdo. We are focused more on ensuring we get to the jazz festival events, as that is what initiated this whole thing!

    I was going to try to see an old friend who lives in Aspen today, but realized in the end it was not going to happen with all the other stuff going on. Because we are up in the mountains and much further from downtown that I was expecting, just not any real easy way to connect with her this visit. So I will just have to see her another time. I just had to let that one go today in the end....

    Traveling has it's fun times and it's unexpected challenges as you probably all know. Going with the flow and going to head out shortly to see Diana Krall!
