When I arrived, the temperature was in the low 50's, but it was really windy. The next morning the temperature was in the 20's, and I started seeing a few flakes of snow before hitting the New Mexico border. The snow was relatively light, but in several places it had started to accumulate on the roads. While going over Raton Pass, I slowed down as much as 20mph below the posted limit to feel safe, and I was still passing a lot of cars.
Kris was able to open up a bit early for me, so I had two hours of electrolysis before heading off to my mammogram. The results were much like my previous checks:
1 - I have breasts.
2 - They are firm yet squishy.
3 - They do not enjoy being squished in a vise.
4 - The results were clear. No abnormalities detected.
When the procedure was finished, I drove to my hotel so I could check in. Since I visit quite often and they had few guests, they gave me a free upgrade to a huge suite. After bringing in my luggage, it was off to visit @Rayna !
Rayna's house has an amazing view! After introducing me to her feline companion and giving me a tour, we sat down for dinner. Rayna had prepared a great meal -- some pasta with marinara sauce and a side of baked potatoes, green beans, carrots and a few other veggies. At 8:00pm we listened to the neighborhood howl, literally. We talked for several hours, and I didn't leave until nearly 11:00pm!
The next morning the temperature was around 4 degrees, but it quickly warmed up to the low 20's. I visited a local Walmart and found something Susan had been looking for -- a white amaryllis! My next stop was a nearby Ross, where I always seem to find some new clothes I like. Kris was ready to start another round of electrolysis at 9:30am. We broke for lunch around 12:30pm to meet up with another friend at the Garden of the Gods Market. After lunch and a few more hours of electrolysis, it was time for me to hit the road home. I spent the night in Clayton, NM. I left early Sunday morning and made it home around 6:30pm.
I do have some sad news to report. Prince was still not eating. We took him to the vet this morning. Most of his life he weighed 26 - 28lbs. When we visited the vet a few weeks ago, Price was down to 18lbs. This morning he only weighed 14lbs. Based on the experience of the veterinarian, it was time to say goodbye. Susan and I helped comfort him as he fell asleep one last time. Prince was part of our family for over 14 years, and we are heartbroken.
