The End is near... but not quite.

When we showed up onsite a full week ago, we were carrying snacks... as those who know us well can only imagine.

I have bad news...

The Snyder's Butter Snaps are gone... save some crumbles left in the bottom of the bag.

These are certainly dire times that try men's souls.

In other happier news, our friends at Safeway off Airport Road snuck in some Fritos and that makes me very happy.  So happy in fact, I bought two bags.  I don't understand why every other brand of Lay's can be on the shelf for months at a time, yet Fritos makes such a Diva style appearance.  When we were in Prague, it was Nacho Cheese Dorritos... could only get those in Germany.  We've learned you can't pass these things up.  Whether you need it or not, you just don't know when the Fritos might show up again.

It's a totally rainy & dreary day... full of fog and wind.  Now, before you say, "Ah, those poor souls!" know that this weather is what'll sustain us thru a very dry 6 months or more.  Last year when we were here, we only saw it truly rain once in 7 mos.  Such is Life is the Desert...
