Grocery list is made and categorized, meats, veggies, cans...well it's long and I don't want to forget anything. I'm betting tomorrow is a very busy day for grocery shopping. I'm gonna go early and try to beat the crowd. What's your plan?

Skywatch Friday

And it is a beautiful beginning!



I had another wonderful visit in Dallas this week. Solar, Lila and I went Christmas shopping and Lila was an angel. She loved being on the go and slept thru most of it and just enjoyed the rest.

We made our annual quest to Sam Moon Trading Co. That is putting it mildly. We were after purses this time and if you haven't been there, let me explain. There are rows, and rows, and rows of purses. Sometimes it is just too overwhelming, to make a decision.




This time I didn't have any trouble deciding...when I see green, no problem;



And the part I really liked..



Now I must get busy with boring work related projects but I hope you all have a great Friday and I leave you with this precious face that melts my heart......

Ride Boldly Ride!

Yesterday, while I was cleaning one of my all time favorite movies was on...



I had to stop and watch it again. This to me is John Wayne at his best.






"Mitchum was memorably paired with John Wayne in El Dorado, with the Duke playing a gun for hire who comes to the aid of broken-down sheriff Mitchum. Seems Mitchum, once a handy man with a gun, is now the laughingstock of the town because he's taken to drink over a woman who left him. Of course, you never see the woman in question. At film's end, Wayne is on his way to the local madam and Mitchum is left on his own, but it's the friendship between the two men which matters. How else could it be in a Howard Hawks film? Newcomer James Caan plays the knife-throwing Mississippi, capably filling the need for a sexy younger man. Don't miss the bath scene with Mitchum finally cleaning up, and everyone in town dropping by to bring him a bar of soap."



If you haven't seen this, rent it, settle back and enjoy. You'll fall in love with the
newcomer
, James Caan!

In sunshine and In shadow
I journeyed long
Singing a song
In search of ElDorado
Over the mountains of the moon
Ride Boldy Ride
In search of ElDorado.


Classic!!!!
