Happy New Year!

We moved our last load from Reno to Discovery Bay on New Years Eve. As we were crossing into California Duane was almost run off the road by a drunk driver. As soon as Duane stopped he told the "inspector" that car next to him was a drunk driver...well the inspector said he couldn't detain the drunk driver and let her go...but he needed to go through the uhaul and the boat. We pulled over to the side of the road, where the inspector looked through the uhaul, my car and the boat. All the while Duane getting more and more pissed off that this state paid worker didn't do the right thing and try to protect everyone from the drunk driver. Finally satisfied that we had no fruit or ferrets on board the inspector started in on the boat...Quagga mussels this, quagga mussels that - he NEEDED to see Duane take the plug out of the boat. Next thing I know Duane has the cover pulled back and is standing in the boat arms out saying, "LET"S DO THIS - I"LL UNPACK THIS BITCH RIGHT HERE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD." I started laughing so hard...who does that? I guess this is better than fishing on 20 degree weather in the rain and snow in Lake Shasta like did a few NYEs ago!

Can I Have Your Autograph?

HAHAHAHAHA!!! When I found this BOX of 2002 and 2005 firefighter calendars I asked Duane to sign one for me! HAHAHA, Just kidding. I saved a few for him to "show people", but the rest got thrown away...a whole box...really?

Duane's Laptop

This is Duane's computer. It has been in his "briefcase" since I met him, never used...it was out of date 5 and half years ago. I finally convinced him to throw it away. It was so heavy!!

My Backyard

I'm never moving!!!

Look What My Car Did

As we were moving Duane attached the aluminum boat to my car. (I was towing it over the pass.) He jumped in the car to make sure the boat was hooked up and get it out of the drive way. He gently hit reverse to move the boat off the chalks and the car didn't move...so he "lightly" tapped reverse again nothing happened...AND THEN all of a sudden the car reversed the boat into the house. Stupid car.

Favorite Spot

Gracie's new fav spot is outside on the back deck. She can lay in the sun and make sure no one fishes our dock!

Wandered Off?

HAHAHAHA...Wandered off wearing a black tweed jacket? Is "MOSES" a dog or a person?

Only In Danville

Only in Danville will you see a woman pushing a stroller with two "dressed" dogs in it and walking another "dressed" dog on a leash. Ridiculous.

Cross Training?

I walked upstairs to the cardio section of the gym and saw this...What? I'm guess she plays roller derby (the skates were a dead give away) and she skated to the gym? It was about 11 AM..did she just come from a game? Was she going to a game? Does her roller derby JERSEY help her "get in the mood?" I can buy any of that. What I don't understand is why she still has on her pads and helmet.
