While we were in Italy, our good friends, Fiona and Steve made two rather quick changes in their lives. 1. They got an adorable dog named Rocky from the shelter 2. They bought a house in Reno! They will be spending warm weather months in their new Reno community, so they are leaving tomorrow until the end of October. They will stay in the desert from November through May.
We went to their house Saturday night to meet Rocky. He is a 1 year old Lhasa Apso mix, and quite adorable.


After catching up on all the news over a bottle of wine, we had dinner at the Tea House Wine Bar in La Quinta. I had half of my two appetizers, orange shrimp, and crab-stuffed mushrooms. (Then I accidently left my doggie bag on the table.) Brad enjoyed his fish.



The bad news is we will really miss having Fiona and Steve around to "play with" all year. The good news is we will visit them in Reno!

I foresee a bright future of fun trips to Reno.

Rocky is adorable!
Both of your appetizers look yummy! I would be so mad at myself if I forgot my doggie bag - such a waste.
Why did Fiona and Steve decide on Reno? Family there maybe?

Palma, please wish all my best with hugs to Rocky, Steve and Fiona. That is one very lucky doggie. I owe you a long email and will get to it soon...
