Stopping in Fruita, CO at the Dinosaur Journey Museum

October 2, 2020 I had been wanting to see the Dinosaur Journey Museum which is a part of the Museum of Western Colorado for some time. I let Bruce know that I wanted to stop in Fruita, CO to see the Dinosaur Journey Museum and I asked if we should stop on the way to […]

The Moab Giants Museum and Dinosaur Park

October 2, 2020 Since we couldn’t get into Arches on September 27th (Sunday), we went to the Moab Giants Museum and Dinosaur Park, just north of Arches. This museum had a 3D “aquarium” that show pre-historic sea creatures. It was amazing and I wish it had a few more exhibits. They also had a small […]

Two Mornings in Arches

October 1, 2020 We tried to get into Arches National Park on Sunday (September 27th) around 10 o’clock, but the park was full with a significant wait to get into the park. We got up at 6 o’clock on both Monday and Tuesday, which allowed us to get to the park at 7 o’clock. Both […]

Back from Renting a RV

October 1, 2020 I was told I need to take some time off by October 3rd or my paid time off would stop accumulating. I decided to combine taking September 28th (Monday) to September 30th (Wednesday) with the weekend of September 26th to have a five day mini-vacation. Bruce and I spent some time discussing […]

Yay! Stuff Keeps Disappearing

September 23, 2020 Bruce carried a second table outside to put allow him to put more stuff to give away on. As stuff disappears throughout the day, he checks his list and carries out stuff to fill the empty spots on the tables. It seems to be a good system, since stuff keeps disappearing.

Bye-Bye Stuff

September 22, 2020 After we finished categorizing our stuff, store, take, and dispose, we went through the dispose to determine if we thought we would get any money for it. The answer was mostly no. Yesterday, Bruce put a table out, with a sign on it, free stuff. He is putting out the stuff in […]

Shrimp and Cream Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms

This recipe starts from a modified version of the Shrimp and Green Onion Spread from Williams-Sonoma’s “Easy Entertaining” by George Dolese. I made these stuffed mushrooms for a dinner party and the mushrooms disappeared, with many complements. Serves 12 (2 per person)

Shingles Vaccine

September 18, 2020 Bruce got his blood work results yesterday and found out that he had chickenpox as a child. He didn’t remember having chickenpox and his parents weren’t sure if he had them. Since he had chickenpox, he can get shingles. After seeing the problems I’ve had from shingles, he wants to avoid them. […]

More Sorting Stuff

September 18, 2020 Bruce has been going through each room downstairs and putting the items in the room on a list. Once he has the items in the room on the list, after I get off work, he askes me what I think about taking, storing, or disposing of the items on the list. If […]
