Talked to Animal Control while I was still in bed, and they said Jade is done with quarantine, I can take the sign down. Which I did later.

Breakfast banana & PNB was a challenge with the new partial, so I made an appointment with the dentist at 11, and got it adjusted by the tech. **

The dentist is a ways down Pecos Rd., so I had my Nikon with me and went almost to the end of the road to Pecos Legacy Park and the Pittman Wash trail. Outdoor Nevada showed the trail with a river running alongside it, probably the one day after it rained last spring. It was bone dry today, not the kind of photos I had hoped for. But here's the car wash overlooking the wash:

It's a huge park, two baseball diamonds, volleyball, picnic areas. There was a little league game starting so I sat in the stands and watched for a couple of innings. Teams had uniforms with their names on the back, it was read hardball with overhand pitching. Probably an equal number of aluminum and wooden bats. Co-ed - there were two or three girls on each team, and they were tiny. A few of the boys were too.

As I was leaving, a flowering plant in the parking lot caught my eye. Took a while to get a good bee pic. Definitely a calendar candidate:

Home, was surprised it was only a little after noon.

Had pizza delivered, and that was a late lunch/early dinner. Watched Shark Tank. And some Gold Rush.

Took out my partial, took a nap till 6:30, took care of both litterboxes (need to order more cartridges for 2 weeks from now) and headed out for Skyline Casino to listen to the band. Even more crowded than last week, but there was some eye candy sitting across from me. Had a virgin pina colada. Only one waitress taking care of 50 people, next time I'll order at the bar. The band was good, but the guest singers were meh. One guy who fancies himself as Frank Sinatra couldn't decide two things: whether to sing or talk the lyrics, and what key he was in. A woman tried to duet with the keyboardist, in a different key. She was fine solo. And the obligatory soul singer mostly shouted. He had great stage presence, though.

Home, processed the photos, had some ice cream (will have more soon).

Tomorrow:
Maybe relax and watch a lot of Tivo
or
Find another photo op
Monday: another dental adjustment.
