Friday afternoon was warm. Not as warm as Wednesday but warmer than today. (e:joe) and I went hiking for a bit to celebrate the temperature. The creek was a kind of disgusting mixer of runoff and sewage. At least it smelled like it. The head of the trail also had what looked like the remnants of a former garbage dump or illegal dumping ground. It was still nice to just be outside. We even saw bugs.

He was so excited eating it that it came out his nose. It was the tastiest, juiciest prickly pear I ever had.

Their food is so delicious, we went on the way home from the botanical gardens. I ate lamb over bacon infused lentils.

Last Sunday it was still freezing but the temperature in the botanical gardens was amazing. I love it there and wish it was in Delaware park instead. This time they also had farm animals. The baby chickens were so cute but not as cute as the tiny quails in the Rochester conservatory.

I had to uninstall and reinstall a new water mixer in our shower because the idiots that did our bathroom remodel screwed it up the way they screwed up everything.

They basically installed it such that the water mixer was at a weird angle which caused to much resistance on the hot cold dial.

They had also done such a bad job with the sealant.

Its back to working.
