You and your friends are very welcome, Joely! I'm glad I happened to catch it on. Can you believe Julie Chen was there in your hometown? The first time I was in Yuma was in August on our first west-to-east cross country move to Florida about 13 years ago. I could not believe the heat at over 100 degrees at 3am! It is amazing how much the town has grown since then. We may end up living there yet before DH retires. I enjoyed hearing the history of how your h.s. came about and what led to the "Criminal" mascot. It was really interesting. What'd you think of the story?

Anyone else watch Days of Our Lives? I swear "Belle" has been in a CC robe the past two shows. Of course, they haven't shown the belt loops, so I can't be 100% positive, but it looks like a violet ice robe.

Julip ~ loved the story! That was my high school and it never phased me that our mascot was a Crim Head (as we called it!) 100 degrees was usually the hottest it would ever be in the middle of the night. Yep... 120 degrees is completely normal. Yuma always ties with Death Valley for the highest temp during July and August months... haha! Okay, who was it that sent me the email about Chile Pepper??? This JUST jogged my memory! It was either Julip or Jinks! I'll go find it! Sea's been to Chile Pepper also. It's definitely an aquired taste, but amazing!

I thought it was funny that Julie Chen called the Snowbirds.. Sunbirds.. and they acted like Yuma was much smaller and had only one high school. But I've been to a game when Cibola played the Criminals and saw the cop cars on the field and all that.. pretty fun.

Sea ~ that's so funny! I didn't catch that! Sunbirds... it makes sense to her I guess... they are looking for the sun! lol I know... it does sound small... but, behold: 4 high schools now and 5 Jack N Boxes! lol Plus, they have their HUGE mall now that even I would shop at! They have EVERYTHING now. If they had single, good looking men, I would have moved home last year!

It really is true .. like with my friend, she moved to Tucson because she wanted her daughter to go to high school there and it seems to have been a good thing since Nik did well at one of the best HS's there and was accepted into three universities and is attending her choice. Nik's brother and many of his friends left Yuma for Phoenix or Tucson. They are a BIT young for you anyway, Joely, but I know people either leave, or are military and eventually move on or they are of the ancient order of the "Silver Crested Snowbird".. (RMAO.. we went to some nature preserve near Yuma once and they had a visitor center and people would write their wildlife sightings and the "Silver Crested Snowbird" had been written in...) They do have cute bats there..

Oh and part of the reason for leaving was that so many of Nik's friends in Yuma weren't very motivated.. probably nothing to do with Yuma itself.

Oh yes.. even little Critter can pretty much bring my posting to a halt.. or at least limit me to what I can do with just a mouse.

Adorable pic!!! I was trying to get one of those cute shots of Misha all curled up on CC but the problem was, she was ON me(!) so I kept calling my son over to take the pic and he was too loud and she'd look up at him! He totally missed one of those great "cat stretches!" LOL I think he may have finally gotten one but it's too late to check now! Love the eye tucks! All cats are adorable when they do that!!!

We've got some booteful kitties in these pictures! Watching - looks like you've got no worries with Misha and the CC™. Sea - I think Angelina is thinking, "I promise to smile if you promise not to flash that bright thing in my eyes!"

Ooooh, what a beautiful, sweet face that is! And so cuddly looking too. I love her "bangs". And Misha is beautiful too. Is she Siamese?

Angelina is a beauty!!! She reminds me of a cat which was from a litter one of our first cats had which I begrudingly had to give to my uncle. I loved her fur! Yep, Misha is a bluepoint Siamese! I had one of the "Precious eye tuck" photos (at least so I thought!) and then my DS realizes that he forgot to put the CARD back inside the camera when he gave it to me! Do'h!!! LOL He says they're "on" the camera, but the PC has had trouble "finding" cameras, etc. but I'm sure I'll have other opportunities!!! She wasn't quite sure what to make of my brand new silversage hoodie. It has a slight "new" smell to it and it's sooooooooo soft. I'm sure she'll be cuddling on it before I know it! LOL
