The cutest little town in Coconino County... Williams, Arizona was so great that Wally decided to stay a couple extra days, and Maggie and I decided to drive back. š¬ Wally ran off from the train station Friday night, and was missing for a few days. The Grand Canyon Railway staff were so great about helping us look, and when I went into the hotel to leave my info, the front desk woman posted on the local Facebook group for me. When I checked with the Williams police department, the dispatcher said she had been out looking the night before. Northern Arizona animal search and rescue volunteers organized efforts. Most importantly, a kind gentleman, spotted Wally, tried to catch him, and passed his location on to us and the police department, ultimately leading Maggie and I to the place where we miraculously found him, trapped in an excavator storage yard half a mile further down. We had to feed him a pile of stale French fries and dig a hole under the fence with our bare hands in the dark, and after an hour, he scooted under and hopped into the car. We then had hotel trouble because we had just checked into a place that didnāt allow pets. Bonus points to La Quinta for being pet friendly - even to our filthy double rescue.

Everything Arthur says is blurred. Literally the word blurred. It started with the dog, I think because I took a picture of him and it looked blurry because his fur is so crazy. Now Arthur BLURRED everything. Itās all blurred out. It drives me nuts.

Weāve been watching new episodes of Mighty Ducks: Game Changers as a family together, as they are released on Friday nights. Even Arthur will sit down and play on my phone and mostly be quiet. Wally sleep, with all of us herded.

I had a dream we were visiting the (dwarf) planet Pluto. In some sort of clear building, but it was crusted over with ice, and you had to go to a special viewpoint to see out.
I also had a dream that some guy who worked for me came in and demanded I tell him about the church, so I took him in Daltonās room and started talking about the Articles of Faith. Coincidentally, Iām supposed to be preparing a talk on the Articles of Faith...

Somewhere Arthur picked up the phrase ācute little fellerā and uses it to describe everything from rocks to Wally. Arthur himself is indeed, a cute little feller.

Sienna: There are otters bigger than you.

Today at school, Sienna made a speech fan and her friends were embarrassed because they were hot too.
