Gettin' Outta Dodge!

Martha and I hit the open road yesterday morning, down through Sparta, over to Mount Airy.

We were women on a mission, and my first "long" outing in close to 3 weeks.

We had big (although easily manageable) plans on my first official day of weight-bearing-boot-wearing.

Lunch at a favorite Mexican place, then over to get our hair cuts, a run-in (More like a hobble pushing a cart) to Dollar Tree for a couple of needed items, a stop of ice cream on the way home.

And I had a couple of orders to fill that took mere minutes - but it was an outing.

The fun with Chris's Christmas in July group didn't end with cookie decorating on the porch - it continued through the evening with red hot wood coals, glowing bracelets, necklaces and s'mores!

One has to wonder, and I didn't ask - do the glowing bracelets ATTRACT mosquitoes at night? LOL!
