Cooperstown & why are there so many troopers???

 A couple sundays ago we decided to take a drive & headed out towards Cooperstown.  We had done it last summer & had found the neatest antique store so I wanted to go back.
See that tractor .........we got stuck behind him on a narrow country road for about a mile!  No problem we weren't in a hurry!
 Also found out there's no going back!  We ended up in Cooperstown & did not find the antique store......boohoo!
 The lake here is the most beautiful shade of blue/green
 We couldn't figure why there was a state trooper on every corner, tour buses, school buses & people every where!
 Duh!  It was Baseball Hall of Fame induction day!
 By the time we found a place to park 5 blocks away it was pretty much over with so it wasn't too crowded to take a walk around.




 We wandered down to the lake



 Then we got back in the car to head towards Oneonta to get Brooks barbecue.
 There was no cell phone service or gps so of course we headed in the wrong direction.....story of our lives!  We even pick the opposite of what we think & that doesn't work either.  When we finally got service the gps sent us down this country road to what seemed like nowhere😕😕
 Where are we???
 Yes this looks better.....maybe?
 Aha finally.......home of the best barbecue around!  We got our food & ate at a picnic table outside because we had Molly.......it was perfect


Love Val

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot.  When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow.  Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out.  I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly.  Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes.  It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet.  Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners.  We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Work, cat bites. hospital.....

After a long winter I went back to work on Thurday & as usual it was crazy with the phone ringing off the wall!  The weather wasn't that great but golfers in the northeast are like caged animals who are finally free!  We had good weather predicted for the weekend & I was scheduled to work both days.  After a very long day Saturday I finally got done around 8 pm & was meeting Popster & Jess in Ballston Spa at a surprise birthday party for Jeff & Colby.  Jess met me in the parking lot & said she was leaving as she had also worked all day.  She showed me her arm where she had been bitten by a cat earlier at work.  She had gone to urgent care & they gave her antibiotics & she went back to work. Before I left for work Sunday at 5:30am I woke her up to look at it & didn't like the way it was swelling up.  I told if it didn't look better when I got home at lunch we were going back to urgent care. This is what it was...
