The Desert Rejoices...

'Tis true my friends, there is joy even in the dry and aird desert southwest!

The Church of The Seven Day Recreationalists was pleased, nay thrilled to entertain none other than Silvertounge Friday evening along with novice recreators Mom and Dad in a peaceful and fun repast of pork! Alas High Priestess of the faith, Princess M was not in attendance but was within our hearts and so present in spirit. We miss you sister...

No blood was spilled despite the presence of my father at an entire table of Obama fans. In truth the subject was only broached once and only briefly at that. We were having too much fun to be concerned with tiny matters such as politics! Huzzah!

Saturday, Co-Founder and High Priestess TLL and myself were lured away from the safety of the castle to a lovely pub call Papago Brewery in Scottsdale for a celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Holy Beverage from Holland, Chimay on the shores of these United States. Chimay has been produced by Trappist Monks in Holland for the past 146 years and trust me, they know what they're doing.

An afternoon of wonderful beverage, trivia games and the finest of company made for a Saturday that the CSDR is well pleased to note for future reminiscences.

Sunday was a banner day in the desert, as session two of the 2008-2009 Picnic Season was held with the added joy of the company of Our Father and Silvertounge. A lovely afternoon, soft breeze, quiet park, fine food, and company to boot! We had a grand time. Alas Our Father was forced to return to his own Abbey but Silvertounge remained and the three of us spent the remainder of the afternoon proving what terrible pool players we all are! We are bad, but it was a lot of fun, and THAT is after all the point!

Glad to hear that the CSDRs are happy, healthy and well and recreating.

Our Halloween was quiet, but we still had fun. We took the Wildchild to the zoo for their "Spooktacular".
She and I dressed up as cat people, and John put on his old duds and followed as the "cat herder".

We didn't decorate this year.

The pictures of the cats are great! They make me sad because we rescued four feral kittens, but couldn't keep them and find them good homes. We kept one for Padme but had to take the others to Animal Control.

I miss them already. Give your kitties all a big hug for me, and think of Linxie, Grumblette and Mini-Mo.
