Snake Sticks and Goodbye to Friends



Patio sales are every Wednesday morning here. I rode around on my bike and got a new stainless steel coffee travel mug for 50 cents. It's from Fantasy Casino and is bright metallic purple. Time to get away from my old rubber one.
One lady was selling these snake sticks for hiking. You thump them on the ground as you go along because snakes can't hear but they'll feel the vibrations and hopefully stay away from you.
We drove back up to Desert Hot Springs and met the old gang at the VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars - like a Legion) for Tacos and Beer. This is the last time we'll see 2 of the couples until the fall as we go in different directions. We're standing in front of an old war tank.
