For today, I proudly offer Elsa's special 10 hour energy coffee, and triple shot Cappuccinos with extra foam, made from beans from High in the mountains of Jamaica. And for all my mocha fans: a Venti quad dutch apple infused white mocha, with caramel whip, garnished with caramelized apple clusters, white chocolate shavings and a caramel drizzle...... SWEET! OH! No worries, a dollop of apple and vanilla and chocolate and caramel swirl ice cream, on top of a dollop of fudge, sprinkled with crystallized apple bits and a chocolate caramel drizzle.... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh....... mega good! TJ's dunking cookies and Cronuts are along for the ride.
WOO HOO!!!! IT ISFRIDAY FURDAY! 
I hope everyone had a great day yesterday. We did well here. The weather, after an early cloudy start, was SO NICE (our one sunny day) that I knew we had to make it an outdoor day for the boys, and what better place than on a river. It was sunny, a beautiful fall day here at home. It was somewhat cloudy where we went, but no rains so no complaints! We traveled on HWY 2, which runs parallel to the Skykomish River for a while, and also a main RR line for some distance too. Nicholas was so thrilled that he saw 5 trains on those tracks while we were en-route. That was cool LOL: William slept through that part... :roll: I wanted to to take Nicholas to see a for real salmon run, one where he could be near, if not in, the river. SUCCESS!, and what a great day. Hhere ls what I wrote in last nights post: "HI everyone! I hope your day has been a good one. Mine was fantastic! I elected to take the boys up to the river where I saw the salmon run a week or so ago, in the hopes that they would still be there, and that Nicholas could see something that wonderful up close. The weather held for us too. We didn't have sun, but it didn't rain, good enough for me, and Nicholas. William doesn't seem to mind one way or another. :lol: I decided to take the boys up to Index, down the Galena-Index Road to the site of the washout, and roads end, as the river took reclaimed the road a few years ago It's about 5.8 miles from the bridge into Index. It is where I saw all the salmon before, and thought it would be good, since he can get in the water with them. They are pinks btw. The fall colors are really starting to come in up there too. WOW - pretty! The river was really fast today, up maybe a foot or so, due to all the rains we have had I guess. Nicholas had such a good time, and was so excited to be in that river with the fish. Such squeals of delight when he saw them move. That aspect was wonderful. He was so funny though - so taken back by the one dead one along the river bank. He kept talking about how sorry he was that the salmon was dead. ;-) I explained to him about the road washout and the road was no more. Showed him where he could see the road further down, in the middle of the river. That was a huge hit: "road was broken, river was on the road, took it away!" too funny. Over and over again about the broken road and that I had better not drive there. :lol: :lol: :lol: Anyways - a awesome day for him - he loved the fish. To be in the river with him, have them swim by his feet: an experience I hope he remembers. We were lucky, in his opinion, to see 5 trains pass by on those tracks that parallel Hwy 2 too. He described today as "this is my lucky day" Yes Nicholas, that it was. A very good time. And William? slept through most of it. " Picassa link to photos and videos: Skykomish River, and the salmon. Be sure to look for the salmon in the water shots. There are several. 
Normalcy in MusketeerVille!! With such good weather Elsa was more than insistent that she spend the afternoon out on her deck, so I let her. She was a good girl, stayed there with only one yard excursion to make sure all was well, check the perimeter, and then back onto the deck. I remember writing about this the last time we had a sunny day, but... It's funny and great that she follows the same route that Mannie did. She did yesterday too. Lola and Bug spent the day being Lola and Bug. :roll: yesterday I came home to fleece blankets scattered around the floor. How did they do that??? Lola was busy destroying a box I inadvertently left out. silly me! Both Bug and Lola have been working very hard to figuring out how to open the recycling cupboard door. They know the empty cat fuds cans are in there.... :shock: :roll: :roll: :roll: Today they succeeded. 
:? :? :? Guess I need to find an alternative now for those cans... darn cats! :lol: :lol: At least they didn't dig up any plants today. YAY! sheshhhhh, but: Normalcy in MusketeerVille!! cat_pet_icon
Have a great day everyone! I will have both boys again today. I hope to be able to go to a river or lake, as it is supposed to be a very nice day, with temps in the 60's, and Nicholas asked for a river visit yesterday, for today. We may do jack's pass, while we can still get there, before the snows show up. We shall see what pans out. When the weather is supposed to be sunny and in the 60's one has gotta be outdoors for that! I will try and get to condos when I can. Sorry I missed you many of you yesterday.
