A Full Saturday

Linda is finally home from a long morning/early afternoon of being gone.  The weather is amazing today, so at least Chim could stay outside since she knew she would be gone for over 6 hours.  At the last minute, Jerry was able to come and walk us, but it was later in the morning.  I showed him how I only will walk in the shade now and asked to be carried when it's full sun.  I walk right up to the edge of the shade and stop, waiting to be picked up.  When it's shady again, I wiggle to get down. 

Linda held a party today for one of her assistant TKD instructors who is going away to college.  He got a bunch of money for school supplies/books and some awesome home-made cards from the kids.  Ethan was hugged so hard and often that once he actually was mobbed and fell over. He has been studying TKD with Miss. Linda for 10 years!!   It's too bad so many of the students were out of town on vacation (last week before school) but it was still a good turnout. 
Mr. Ethan is third from the right.
After the party and her classes, Linda went to the car show at church. Man, there were so many cool cars and bikes.  Chim went last year, but he didn't care for it much.  All the vrooom-vrooom racing engines and crowds of people made him nervous.  Everyone seemed to be interested in this Fisker car that has a solar panel for a roof.  It wasn't the most expensive car there, but it sure attracted a lot of attention.

Linda left her camera home, so she had to download a photo of it
Later this evening she'll be going up to her friend Leslie's horse ranch.  There is an open house party for everyone to see the property. (I guess it's technically not a ranch and not a farm.. more like stables where you learn to ride and they have jumping shows. That just goes to show how little Linda knows about horses.)  Dogs are invited, but Linda has not decided if she'll be bringing us.  It's almost an hour drive each way and it wouldn't be fun if we got car sick.
