For ruins Hovenweep is nice and has a visitor center like Chaco. Canyon of the
Ancients is cool too and undeveloped - go over to Dolores to the Anasazi
Heritage Center for information on it.

Don't take the bet, Larry, because Wolfgang never pays off, even when
he's conclusively proven wrong.


No ****, he's a total welsher. It's over a year since he said he was
raising money to buy me a puppy. OK, the guy hates my guts, but I figure he
can't be all bad if he's going to buy me a puppy. So I put my order in for a
Golden, suggested Willi's, and then . . . zip. Pretends he never said it.
Wolfgangs like a slot in an Elko gas station; He never pays off. :-)

On another note. . . .

He still owes me a shiny new nickel because I proved he was full of ****
about Chas's method for measuring the width of tippet. I even gave him
my mailing address.

A pharmacist? A naked woman? Idaho? A shotgun dealer?

Exactly my point. All this "shiny new nickel" this, and "shiny new nickel"
that. Blah, blah, blah. Its always the same bet. Then he loses and where
is
the "shiny new nickel?" NOWHERE, thats where. Im starting to think
"Wolfgang" and Vern might be the same guy. Same rationales. Walks like a
duck . . . . Has anyone actually seen the two of them together? Funny
thing
. . . "Vern" disappears and who is left? "Wolf(Vern)gang." And the "shiny
new nickel" business. Then there is this bit about dogs. And as I recall
"Vern" had his own interesting take on dogs too. Some people have said
they
have seen him, but has anyone actually checked his ID? You know that in
German, "W" is pronounced like an English "V." See where this leads?
Exactly.

For those who like watching you two rub each other's pee-pees, that's just
the sort of thing they like.

with (not all that sincere) apologies to mr. lincoln. :)

no signs of her out there today .... but there was a pair in a cottonwood
about 50 feet from my back door for a while ... probably the same Woodies
and they were just napping between real estate visits, trying to find a home
to raise a family in a good neighborhood, yesterday ..... think Wolfgang
woulda gotten my million shiny nickels ... but I may check again in a week
or so

On the bird subject .... there were 6 baby mallards, and an "acting wounded
mamma" on the pond today, freshly hatched ...... and even more exciting I
just drove in from a trip to town to find a cock valley quail strutting
around near my water pump/tank in the front 'yard' I was pretty sure
they had all abandoned the area, as I haven't seen one in a long time, but I
let some blackberries and honeysuckle and other things any decent farmer
would fight to the death grow along a fence row and it seems to have had
it's intended effect ...... just just gotta love nature

Hm......

If memory serves (and she does ocassionally cooperate), Wolfgang offerred to
bet a million shiny new nickels "ON", not "AGAINST" the possibilty that
woodies might sometimes nest on the ground.

I'd bet a shiny new nickel that Wolfgang would recommend you stay away from
Vegas.

Cholera?

Typhus?

Malaria?

Yersinia pestis?

who has a deep and abiding love for some parts (mostly the naughty bits, if
truth be told) of nature.
