TODAY IS SATURDAY & SUNDAY

SATURDAY

We took dogs down to the Park to walk them on Shooter's Road. It was very humid and hot.

When we came back, hubby had to work in the shop today.

I stayed home and cleaned.

SUNDAY

Got up and made egg sandwich for hubby and a latte. Then we took the dogs to the park for a walk. Along the way on Athol hill, we saw a young moose that had been hit by a car. He was still alive. It was so sad. He had injured his legs and could not walk, pulling himself to the side of the road. Hubby called 9-1-1 and explained the emergency. They said they would dispatch somebody to come pick up the moose. We turned around to see if Larry who was at the shop could come get him, but noticed a black truck that was parked in the road across from the moose. They were waiting for authorities to come pick up the moose. So we decided to walk the dogs in the cemetery. There was a momma moose and another young moose in the cemetery waiting for the other moose to join them. It was extremely upsetting and sad. We finally drove to the park and passed the young injured moose once again.

Walked the dogs and then came home, the moose was gone by then. No blood stains on the road, so maybe they took him to be rehabilitated?

Hubby had to go take his Handgun Familiarity class at Center Target Sports in Post Falls from 1-5. He also took a jeep to CN that he had finished. Hubby forgot his latte that I made and his cell phone. He called me from a phone at a gas station (he could not find a pay phone, he used the business' phone) to get the gate code; then he got Wendy's burgers.

When hubby got home, I gave the burgers to the dogs. Hubby sat on the couch with a heating pad for the rest of the night because his hip was out of joint and painful.

There were numerous WARNINGS all night long on the tv channels about a huge storm. So I brought a lot of stuff inside that would get blown away or rained on and ruined. The wind started around 9:00, but it was not the 60 mph winds they predicted. Spokane got lots of wind. The lightning came next, it lit up the sky. But there was no thunder. Odd. Then it started raining, and a little thunder. We got LOTS of rain. Soaked. But Isabelle was not scared. I had even opened the bedroom door in the basement so that she could run down there to hide, but she never moved from upstairs.

We went to bed at 11:00.
