But you'd be wrong.
Our Skagway friend Dennis visited for a few days and we had a good time. We went to Arizona Sonora Desert Museum, Kartchner Caverns, and several movies. Also, we had a fire in our new fire pit.
Brother Don called to invite me jeeping. I went up for a whole week and we went all over the place. We did not break anything, and did not need a rescue. We saw lots of pronghorns and deer and hawks and eagles. I found some interesting rocks including some 350 million year old fossils. Peggie drove up to get me and we enjoyed a long drive home via Pleasant Valley. Beautiful scenery.
It is raining a bit now, although the forecast called for a downpour, which is not happening.
The state is excited to host the Superbowl this weekend, but for us it could just as well be anywhere since we will see it on TV.
Speaking of TV, we use it to appreciate living here as we see the nasty weather in the rest of the country.

HAPPY NEW YEAR
This is a sincere wish for each of us to have a good year.
Our New Year's Eve tradition is to stay home, off the streets, and safe. We have a dinner made entirely of hors d'oeuvres. Okay, I had to look up the spelling. I bet you would, too.
However, Peggie had an injection yesterday, so it was not a good night to celebrate. So we had our hors d'oeuvres meal today. It worked out great. Who wants to cook on New Year's Day?
Last night we started getting snow at around ten. When we went out at 10:30 there was already a dusting. This morning there was a couple of inches on things like rocks and cars, but roads and ground were just wet. By the time we got up, the eaves were already dripping.
My computer monitor has been acting up, and finally, a couple of days ago, it just would not come on. We used Peggie's laptop to look up some troubleshooting. We disconnected, cleaned, and reconnected all the cables. We ended up taking the cover off the CPU case and vacuuming dust out. We were going to do the same thing with the monitor, but then Peggie found this little TV she had won from Domino's a few years ago. We hooked it up, and voila, I had a computer monitor.
It is nice to have my computer back. I think I don't use it much, but when I can't use it, I want to use it all the time.
I am aware that I deserve the Bad Husband of the Year Award. We gave Peggie a fine birthday celebration, but I totally forgot to make a Happy Birthday, Peggie post here. No excuse. My monitor was working that day. Bad, bad husband.
