Long time no blog, part deux

Shoot, it has been a long time since I blogged. I have been busy road trippin' on the weekends. But with gas being over $4.49 a gallon nowadays, am gonna have to limit my trips to maybe 2 a month. And I already met my quota for this month - lol. But I am going to the Easter Sierras next month. Already have a campground reservation at Rock Creek, near Mammoth Lakes. I just love that place. The Little Lakes Valley hike is gorgeous! I can't wait to go! I wanna take a drive to Tuolumne Meadows in Yosemite on the way back, because that place is absolutely beautiful.

You can check out my TRAVEL BLOG if you wanna check out the pictures I took on my recent trips.

I had some good news from the doctor. My MRI came back normal. Thank goodness. My back has been feeling so much better. Of course, now my knee has started hurting. But my doctor gave me a cortisone injection yesterday, and tho, while sore, it has already started to feel better. Now I have a freakin' bunion on my little toe, so I have to go to a podiatrist. But that ain't gonna stop me from that Little Lakes Valley hike. No how, no way!

I got a new car, too. A 2008 Saturn Aura, and I love it. My little Chevy Cavalier took me so many places, and I miss it, but my new car is bigger and has 4 doors, which makes it so much more convenient when I go grocery shopping....or any shopping for that matter. It has OnStar and XM Radio too, which are great. I had hit a big rock on one of my road trips (it was an unmaintained road that had a rock slide recently). Came around a hairpin turn and it was right in the middle of the road. I tried to stop, but was unable to avoid the rock, and it just messed up the poor Cavalier's transmission, oil pan and radiator. It was either hit the rock or go tumbling down the side of the mountain - lol. I am going to stick to the good roads in this new car from now on! No more rocky bumpy roads!

It has been hotter than the devil's crotch here in Bakersfield. Shoot! It was 112 or some ridiculous temperature last weekend. And it is setting up to be a blazing hot weekend this weekend too, with temps getting up into the high 90's. And with all of the wildfires burning in California, the sky is an ugly brownish color from all of the smoke. Yeah, it is just soooo lovely here in Bake-O.

Well, that's all for now. See you in another few weeks - lol.
