Good stuff/bad stuff

What a weird weekend. First off, Saturday morning, Pepper found some dead animals in the yard. It turns out there were 3 of them. At first I thought it was the mole, but then I put my glasses on. Ick. A couple feet away there was another one and a couple feet from that one there was another one. I think they were newborn kittens, literally just hours old. I was devastated to find one of them was still alive, barely. Bill said, "honey, what are you gonna do? It's gonna die, you can't save it, you don't know what's wrong w/it, you can't nurture it and raise it." He was right of course but still. Seriously, what mammal just bails out on it's newborns??? Ewwwww.

Then it was off to the Vet for Peppers annual exam and shots. She scored a 9 on a 1 to 9 scale for good health! But....she has BAAAAAAD teeth. So bad that they want to remove 9 of them asap. Poor Pepper. Some of them are infected so we antibiotics to take before they're extracted. Poor Pepper. I'm so sad for her. What a good girl...in pain, all the time, but still lovin' her hoomans. So next week she'll have her 4 top front teeth, her 4 bottom front teeth and one molar removed.  *sigh*

Ok, on to the good stuff. We went to a local British Car Show. It was small but fun and it was a glorious day after the heat waves we've had! If you're a gear head, here are some pictures;






And my personal favorite; (because it looks like a Disney cartoon car)

And Symphony on the Prairie was lovely Saturday night. I hope the rest of the summer is just like this!
