It was time to dump the litter boxes and start new with fresh litter. Also, there's laundry happening today.

And then there is a a series of little maps.

We'll get the litter box today, as well. Laundry's not too critical - we have enough to get through the next few days.

We have a small apartment.

It only has nine doors.

Our grocery stores don't carry beer & wine, either except (it seems, at least) only one store per chain. One of the Giant aFood stores in Montgomery Co does, but no others; one 7-11 in Prince George's Co does, but no others.

Really ... everybody carries beer, wine and hard stuff out here. Local markets even carry premium brand wine and micro brews.

And kitty food - gotta keep those l'il $#its happy.

Already have lots of that. But need kitty litter. Because...well because of the kitty food.

Thanks for the reminder, out of wet dog food.

Not here. But, then again, there's a liquor store in every strip mall.

The Cook and I are back from our walk ... 1.5 to 2 miles.

No wine or hard liquor in grocery stores here in NY. Just beer. And I think we still have blue laws that don't allow the sale of any alcohol before noon on a Sunday.

Still better than PA. No beer in grocery stores, either. You have to go to the state-run beer distributor stores.

Now I want wine.

 

[snowbear155 86]

I have iced tea.

I believe there is an Ayala provence or fiefdom of some kind in Portugal.

Did some digging. It's actually in Spain, Basque country:Ayala/Aiara - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Then linked to this: Álava - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Ayala: The area clustering around the Nervión River, with Amurrio and Laudio as its major towns. The region shows close bonds with Bilbao and Biscaye and an industrial landscape."

Portugal ... Spain ... close enough. I knew my lineage is from Espana ... but that somehow the fiefdom was in Portugal.

I have four miniature flags as part of my polar bear collection.

See you in a while. I'm going to sketch.

What do you sketch?
