Out and about

My adorable nephew Cole came over the other day.

Here he is with Cooper and Dewey.

We went to Seaport Village. One of the local bird rescue organizations brought their birds out.

Here’s Cole posing with a sun conure.

We got a couple of balloon animals. Cole got Pluto and I got a budgie. Well, it’s supposed to be a budgie. The balloon guy didn’t know what a parakeet was (!), so this was the best he could do.

A day at the races

Harry and I went to the Del Mar race track on Saturday.

I picked Capo Bastone in the 7th race to win.

Mostly because the jockey was wearing Cooper/Dewey colors. You can’t go wrong with blue, black and white.

The camera battery died, so I didn’t get a shot of Capo Bastone in the winner’s circle after he won. I found this one on the internet. It was very exciting!

I won $7.50! (well $4.50 after the $3.00 bet). What should I do with the winnings?? Maybe buy a parakeet toy…
