...and with a bag full of art goodies,
mostly still packed from our day trip to Yarnell...

...And
the promise of a delightful gathering of blog friends
Saturday
for the Phoenix version of the 20th Worldwide Sketch Crawl!
The plan was to meet at the Desert Botanical Gardens
around 9:30 AM at the outdoor cafe.:)
...Friday night, when
an unexpected encounter with a "Check Engine" light stopped me cold...
and then
a fairly hefty Saturday morning caution from the dealership to
"Not Drive The Car"!
DRATS!
I was GROUNDED...without a plan "B"!
Wings clipped...I sat...bottom lip stickin' out...all pouty and all...
A big ole raincloud a hangin' over my head...
disappointed and GROUNDED...blah, blah, blah!
Geesch!
do I ever take a lot for granted!

LOL @ your bottom lip!
'many a slip twixt cup and lip'....or 'the best laid plans of men...' what a bugger!
Oh NO! You could have sketched your car engine and put all kind of cuss marks in it :)
Funny how fast things can change in life but better than the worse happening...oh, that was the worst? :)
Yikes!!! What a crushing disappointment!!!!
I do like the photos you posted, though. That sunset is totally breathtaking!!! And isn't that a travel patch from Germany on your backpack??? Where were you in Germany??? That's where I grew up!!!
Thanks for all the wonderful comments you left for me on my Blog!!!
What a bummer. I don't blame you for pouting. Boo hisss. Aren't cars just the most horrible things we must have??
Funny how we can all empathize with mechanical breakdowns...:)
