Picaresque

Picaresque is the adjective to describe writings about a common or low character who survives the pitfalls of life through luck or good fortune. My travels, interests, my animals, my photographs, my wonderful friends and family are featured.

Name:
Location: Arapahoe, Wyoming, United States

(Note: Blogs read from bottom to top; scroll down for beginnings, scroll up for most current.) After 30 years in public administration and four degrees, as well as numerous workshops with luminaries in Education and Public Policy, life in a slower lane became a goal. Most recently I have done policy writing and consulting for the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone Tribes. Mostly, I am just coasting slowly and gently downhill these days-seeking joy where I can find it before the glorious ride ends.

Tuesday at the Dog Park

Benjy was so glad to see Juneau. Juneau had to set some boundaries. Setting boundaries was why I went along. Some Rottweilers had ganged up on Juneau last week and it really upset Lori. For the most part all the doggies played nicely this week.
Francine from Montreal is one of Lori's dog park friends. She is pleasant-and vivacious. As is her Dobie. Juneau and the Dobie are good friends. They will be staying at Barkingham Palace today while Lori visits with a pregnant friend and Francine drives her convertible to the Keys.
The dog park was busy this afternoon. Juneau and his Dobie friend are good together.

After we wore Juneau out. Lori and I tried a restaurant she had scouted: Phyllis G's Enigma. What a find! Kind of a funky place in a nice way. We sat on the patio and enjoyed Sangria, coconut shrimp, pecan crusted red snapper, Cuban skirt steak and perfectly done veggies and rice. Our server was Cuban and had made the Sangria and was as helpful as she could be. My kids are fun to dine with because we share food and plan it that way. This place merits a do-over when the Oregonians arrive.
No food pictures because my batteries ran out (again).
