in Laramie

8/27.  We are back in Laramie.  Mainly to check email and do a few odds and ends.  some shopping for Iris of course.  Had to get some Wyoming things for her.  And Lunch at Sweet Melissa's yummy vegetarian quiche and puff pastry dessert.  Now we are with the students at the UW union.  Soon to head back.

Found a great trail to hike and run on-Medicine Bow.  trailhead is 5.5 miles east of our place.  Rosie saw a moose--she said, but I don't believe her.  I still have yet to see a moose in Wyoming!

 Rosie on the trail

One of the nice mile markers.  The same trail goes by closer to the condo on the other side of the road.

Near where Ro "saw" the moose.  That's not him in the photo though.

Finished reading Angle of Repose which is lovely, highly recommended.  I think I will mention at Good Reads.

Here is a photo from out back from the little bedroom, early morning!  Where are the trees??

and two "pets"

Dave Goodwin left us this guy!

This one came from Bishop Hill.  His siblings are in our Salem living room and one in Peoria!
