well, my blog clock is still an hour behind, i dont know how others have fixed theirs.lol i thought if we got the puter clock fixed that it would fix automatically... sigh... so much for thinking lol.... well hopefully it will fix itself in a week.. if not, i may have to change my time zone setting or something!::: shrugs::::
OH and my DS brought home an AWESOME little treat the other day!!! a box of Tastykake butterscotch krimpets!!!! needless to say they are gone already lol between my son and i, who both miss & remember them from back east!! LOL oh yum, what a treat!! :)
ok, i found this 'game' for lack of a better word lol, here
and thought it sounded fun so here goes:
We came to Landers, CA
because we thought we had property out here, we checked it out online and by the time we got out here and even tore down the old shack of a place, down to the foundations, we went back online to see what the back taxes were and found out it was sold at an auction!! HAhahaha
well, 2,000 miles from home,now, i think we'll stay and so we have for 3 years lol
Landers isnt much of a town, tho it does claim to house 10,000 people, it doesnt seem so... we are at an elevation of between 3100 and 3500 feet, depending on who you read or listen to lol
We do have the Integratron,
World famous and one of a kind! read article here
We also have the world famous Gubler's Orchids, found here
both VERYY cool places and one of a kind!!! quite unique too! other than that, we the post office, an elk's or moose lodge and community center/thrift store!! lol yes you read that right! haha
AND probably most important is we are known as the UFO Capital of the World, cuz in the 60's and 70's they would have UFO gatherings lol
oh YES how could i almost forget about Giant Rock and how some one lived under it (ROFL) literally!!! Oddly enough, it was the same guy who built the Integratron!!!! article found here
that's my town, as crazy and beautiful as it sounds, its found in the High Desert with all its weather extremes! but i LOVE it :)

I hope your DH finds work again soon. Is a swapmeet the same as a big yard sale - thats what we call it in Canada, leastways. Also - what are krimpets? Do tell, have heard of crumpets, but not krimpets. But you make them sound like something I want to be trying. Looks like you live in a beautiful area - our landlords (present ones) often speak warmly of Indio! Love the cactus! Will check in on you again soon.

AHHH!!!! Tastykakes!! So good! LOL
The weather is horriable Wed & Thur it was in the 70's than Fri we had snow & sleet!
I wasn't out in it but there were sure alot of accidents being dispatched over my scanner, no bad ones thou.
I'm ready for warm weather but not to hat!
This morning there's a bunch of robin's out back in my wood's sure sign of spring! LOL
thank you both for stopping in!!
Mrs. Miles, thanks, DH cant get back soon enough lol. and yes a swapmeet is a place where vendors come together and sell their stuff :) like a big yard sale lol
and a krimpet, hmm, well that is like a sponge cake type of crumpet shaped cake with butterscotch icing.. its soo buttery and yummy, it cant be good for anyone, but oh so delicious! i hear they sell Tastykake products out here on the marine base but not to the general public!
i hope i answered your questions and i sure look forward to seeing you again soo! :)
