First day of summer

And what did I do yesterday? I stayed home, fed the cats, dogs, and outside birds, and cleaned half of the living room. And, I CLEANED it! I pulled out the couch and chairs, vacuumed behind them, rearranged things a bit, and cleaned the wooden furniture with Murphy's Wood Soap. At least all the dust is gone! That's one of the bad things about living in the desert: dust. It is EVERYWHERE! Our windows don't keep it out and I even see it on our daughter's window sills. Plus, the dogs drag in dirt and dust every time they come in! Ripley, our black lab, is a "dust magnet"!!! And, since we were invited to our daughter's house for dinner, I didn't drive up to the horses in the afternoon. I'll go up this morning, for sure, since I need to buy dog food up there at the feed store. Here are some pics of our dinner and 1 decent pic of Ripley, who just WILL NOT stay still!!!
