FLATLANDERS

We had a very relaxing 2 weeks in AZ. I told a visiting church friend that I would go golfing with him if he set it up. As you can see from my smooth golfing technique I am not now nor have I ever been a golfer. It was an enjoyable outing in perfect weather, though.

We BBQ'd steaks one night and had quite a bit of cutoff fat and decided to leave it out by the bottom of the deck steps "as a treat for the critters". Later alone Evie asked me if It wasn't such a good idea with the coyotes (genus and species "eatibus anythingus") and bears around (we had all seen a large coyote boldly trotting down the front yard). It was already dark and I wasn't going out there to retrieve the scraps. Later there were LOUD coyote cries very close by. I cranked the downstairs windows nearly shut and set my .38 on my nightstand fully loaded with high power hollow point rounds. My bedtime prayers were humble, contrite and fervent. I was a very thankful camper in the morning after an uneventful night.
