I know, I know, it feels like forever since I was here and it looks that way from my last post date. Going to try and keep up on this, this winter. We now return you to regularly scheduled blog
Wow! I can't believe fall is here already. August I really did do much. The Biggest thing Michele & I did was we went to Rockin' The River's, a three day Rock 'N' Roll festival near Three Forks, Montana.

We were giving her a cortisone shot monthly and daily doses Tramadol an it helped for a while but over time she just got worse.
