Oopsy Daisy~


When Husband gets off work at midnight he always gives a call to say goodnight and I can then fall into the nights rest peacefully, so when at 1:30am my cell phone rang again with the special ringer of 'Hey Good Lookin' my eyes flew open and my heart raced! His motorcycle decided to shut down out in the middle of the desert, the prison he works at is a good 45 miles from anything remotely close to Vegas and he was about 10 miles from the prison itself as well.

Thankfully we had just taken the white trailer to the dump last Monday to offload a bunch of stuff that had collected, because my truck was already hooked up with the quads loaded on the black trailer and it would have been very trying to offload it in the middle of the night!

Scottio was off but had fallen asleep early and since he has been on the graveyard shift he was ready to go so Chad gathered the tie downs and helped him hook up the trailer and off we went. The bummer part is we were 3 hours from him, he patiently waited, did a little star gazing and even took a short nap!

Once we got to him we dropped him off at his place in town, where he had the back up motorcycle and we headed straight back home. I was due to go to the Wednesday Bee with D but thought it best to cancel so we stopped at her home on our way up the Mountain to let her know.

Scottio's unit was in for maintenance and I needed to grocery shop and by then the Starbuck's triple shot Breve' had kicked in so we cruised back down to take care of the errands!

Once home we got everything put away and decided we may as well start loading things up, we are heading to Williams tomorrow to camp out for the next four days! It is actually a Church Group Event so there is going to be at least 7 Families going, we will also take the opportunity to scout for where we will get our firewood and the boys will fish to their hearts content!

We hopped over to Willow Beach this past Saturday so they could get a little time in and it was absolutely gorgeous out! Normally it is 110 plus but with the rain storm that was overhead it was in the low 90's.

William and Donnie each caught one, there were many nibbles though, Blake is looking to make it up as soon as we get there! and that evening even though the fair was small it was a pure treat and can't wait to have some more this weekend! I even bought more bait for them with the hopes that we can bring some home to freeze! And the crawdads are a plenty as well so there will be at least 2 feasts to come. Yumm!
