Compare notes with Nora when she zooms in....She probably has more frequent driver miles than me........(she normally flies in much tighter circles though!)
Mudchicken Nothing is worth taking the risk of losing a life over. Come home tonight in the same condition that you left home this morning in. Safety begins with ME.... cinscocom-west

Cat claws and feathers everywhere.

Quick, chocolate cake diversion!

Outta here!....Make beeline for Iowa...

Back in Denver
(Mooks almost didn't catch me ordering "Railroad Chicken Salad"!)
Mooks didn't catch much of anything - therein lies the problem! [:(!]

You may be closer to a roadrunner than a chicken, as fast as you go without leaving the ground! [:X] (Glad you made it home ok)

Chicken Salad sounds good, but so does Tuna Salad. [:D]

Just don't forget the cottage cheese on a nice bed of lettuce. [;)]

Hey it is almost lunch time, but no "chicks" running around that I see anyway. [;)]

I guess I will have to settle for a quick burger or taco. [:p]

(They do have chicken tacos, don't they? [;)] )

If plan B doesn't work, try putting a chocolate cake out.

Tree, you are brilliant! Plan b comes together!
