Independence Day Celebration in Garland

 Well, it's not quite Independence Day, but today is the celebration in Garland and we are going to see what it's like.  I have this idea that we can get up on the roof of Intrinsic and have a great view.  However, that will require a full day of claiming our spot.  Off we go.  We know parking will be a nightmare, so we're on the DART.  While walking from our stop to the brewery, this little guy is spotted.

Pumpkins and Marisol at DMA

 Back in 2017, we were able to see the Kusama Pumpkins at the DMA and they have made a return trip.  I did a post on the back then and here is the LINK to it.  I didn't share a lot of information then, so here is a bit more. 

"My beloved pumpkins.

My pumpkins, beloved of all the plants in the world.

When I see pumpkins, I cannot efface the joy of them being

my everything, nor the awe I hold them in.

I have captured the dignity of such pumpkins and their eternal

expression of love towards humanity here in this mirror room.

I invite you all to see tis vast, unbounded field of pumpkins

to discover how humans shall live their lives from now on.

Please unearth your own way of living life."

Let's Get Cass Moved

 We've been moving towards this day for quite some time.  Plans are in place and family is gathering.  We are flying into Provo to spend a couple days with Cass before the actual move happens.  A little subterfuge going on, but we're doing our best to work through everything.  I'm just so happy the day has arrived.  As we leave Dallas, we notice all the new construction at DFW - new terminal being brought in.

Zoo Morning Plus a Few Other Stops

 Mister is soooo good at getting me up and moving every so often.  It's needed as the pit is quite deep right now.  The television and I are great friends.  However, today we are off to the zoo for some morning walking, eye candy, and a "not in the house" day.  The Lesser Flamingo juveniles are out and about -- love to watch the littles.

An Around Town Day

 For the last day of August, we are out and about.  First up is a walk to the anniversary celebration at White Rock Coffee.  They are 20 years old and Mister has been there since the beginning.  Me?  I've been going there about 17 of those 20 years.

Jacob Graduation and Time in San Angelo (story)

 We've returned from Montana and are off to San Angelo for a grandson's college graduation.  How cool is this?  I'm so happy for him and he already has a job waiting in Anchorage, Alaska.  That is even more exciting.

Montana to Help Mom - Days 16-18

 Up here in Bigfork, Montana, there is always something fun happening.  Well, at least at this time of year.  This morning, we are in town to meet up with Jill for coffee and some fun.  Obviously, the out-of-towners are dressed different than the locals.  Too funny.
