She's down to a rotation of five at a time, and those are all ones that can be washed and dried. Her room looked like that scene from E.T., or the Chick-Fil-a commercial where the cow hides in the pile of toys.<br /><br />LittleRed1Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-82068077091980766632017-05-24T17:53:23.055-05:002017-05-24T17:53:23.055-05:00Not dry enough in your area to successfully keep a...Not dry enough in your area to successfully keep a Sand Cat healthy.

We brought along the pocket version of Dr. Kevin "Doctari" Robertson's "The Perfect Shot" . . . . . and a laser pointer.<br /><br />I had her pick out and lase her shots on various animals at various angles, including brain shots on the Ele, since she had never hunted a mammal in her life. Only a few other patrons figured out what we were doing, including one couple where they were both wearing NRA hats. Got a big grin and a thumbs up from them, not so much from everyone else. left just before we got kicked out the last time.<br /><br />Worked, too. She went 5 shots for 5 tags on our trip, and earned the nickname "Sniper-Woman" from our trackers.<br /><br />FormerFlyer<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-42925052227338253552017-05-24T12:58:32.759-05:002017-05-24T12:58:32.759-05:00Glad you had safe travels!

Next time you get up that way, you DEFINITELY need to visit the Arabia Steamboat Museum. The boat sank in the Missouri River in 1856 on it's way upstream with full cargo. Neat thing is all the items on display are new - they never got to their end users. Found by a family out to find treasure to sell, but ended up keeping it all. Well worth the visit. Can't get to their museum website, but here's Wikipedia (yeah - I know). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabia_Steamboat_MuseumAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16594268150374521796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-78234422069748874902017-05-24T12:07:13.934-05:002017-05-24T12:07:13.934-05:00LittleRed1 - Don't know if you have tried this...LittleRed1 - Don't know if you have tried this with the stuffed animals but this helped my daughter a lot. I ran her stuffed animals through the dryer on air fluff (no heat cycle) every so often to 'dust' her critters. It seemed to help. I also do the same thing with our quilts and draperies.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06530748998376076224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-18011816132906719312017-05-24T11:20:16.870-05:002017-05-24T11:20:16.870-05:00Was such a wonderful surprise to have you come thr...Was such a wonderful surprise to have you come through our town last night.

It's probably just as well that Red 2.0 is under a stuffed animal ban at the moment due to allergies or I'd be tempted to get a toy one. For Red 2.0, of course.<br /><br />LittleRed1Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-4557572304864313372017-05-24T09:07:55.995-05:002017-05-24T09:07:55.995-05:00Sweet Mother of God!!!

So much cuteness in a tiny little package...that would pluck out your eyeballs and play with them on the floor if given the chance.
