This is me standing on the wall outside of Joseph's, with one of his really cool wind whirlygigs. We are waiting for the guy who supervised the concrete slab project, who just called us up to say he'd like the rest of his money.

Unfortunately he has gotten completely lost in Santa Fe and, after running out of interesting things to do around the wall, Mom and Dad will finally tell the guy to stay in one place while we come out and find him to give him the check.

This has been a Santa Fe day, which is fine with me. Mom and I took some little walks while Dad went out and did some paperwork business with the state and county; Mom also had a lot of phone calls about her Senator Shaheen event. Then we all went out shopping. We got a great bargain on some PotteryBarn plates and cups that a woman was selling (she had to move because she lost her job), and some nice glasses and placemats from Jackalope.

Mom and Dad went to a gallery opening on Canyon Road while I got to stay in the car (again!), and now we are all back at Joseph's place, chillin'. Tomorrow: many yard sales!
