Nox Hanging Out with Me

July 21, 2022 Since I hurt my ankle again, (see https://retirementrvdream.com/2022/07/12/ouch-i-really-did-that/ for the original story) Nox has been a sweetie pie. She keeps me company on the theater seating while I am icing my ankle, compressing it, and keeping it raised. Yes, you can see mosquitoes bites on my legs. We went hiking before I […]

Warfield Point Park in Mississippi

July 19, 2022 We visited Warfield Point Park in Mississippi, along the Mississippi River. We bought Nox along. The boardwalk was not usable and was blocked off with a No Thru Traffic sign on the side closest to the parking lot. The large sign was in sad shape. We walked over to the pavilion and […]

Rude Nox

July 4, 2022 One evening last week, we were walking Nox when a little light brown dog came running up. It was just a tad larger than Nox. The dogs sniffed each other and then the other dog took off running. Nox tried to follow, but her leash wouldn’t allow her to run off. Nox […]

Nox Ready for a Walk

July 3, 2022 After we got back from Winterville Mounds (https://retirementrvdream.com/2022/07/02/winterville-mounds-outside-of-greenville-ms/), we lazed about, reading and playing on the computer. When it was evening, Nox decided she needed to go for a walk. I put her harness on her and Bruce carried Nox down the steps. The sky was beautiful. We walked to the back […]

June 28, 2022 Last Wednesday (June 22), we got up early to see the planet alignment. This was just before 5:00 am. Nox was excited to go with us, so we put the harness on her and let her come with us. I took some pictures of the alignment. In the first picture below, Jupiter […]

Nox Hiding from a Snake

June 19, 2022 ****Warning Picture of Snake in the Blog Post**** Nox asking to go outside. “Okay, Nox! We’ll take you outside!” Oh no, a snake on the trail. It is just a harmless snake. Nox didn’t like the snake. Once we got home, she buried herself under her towel to hide from the snake! […]
