100 and Done! (Countries that is...)

We are back! This last trip brought the total countries visited to 100! It is a crazy milestone. It is difficult, time-consuming and can be (IS) expensive. After I got back from Antarctica in 2007, I started thinking about it. After 2010 I was thinking about it more (as I moved from NY to Georgia) and in 2014 it had become a real goal. Between Angie and I we have been to 109 Countries. We are tied at 100 countries each. We have 9 countries different in our lists. For example, I have been to San Marino. She has not. She has been to Israel. I have not, yet. There has been some fun competition in this area. That's why we had to establish rules. 1.) Must be listed (as a country) with the US State Department 2.) Being in an airport doesn't count. You have to get through immigration somehow and not in a DMZ or a no-mans-land 3.) A passport stamp is not required. I have been to Canada, Paraguay, and Uruguay without getting my passport stamped. There are friendly borders in many places...

Last night I gave fawna an injection of steroids we got from the vet. We got some fluids into her and she ate some. (I also exercised her legs. That was the first time I ever gave an injection. It was a little scary but it went well. She hardly jumped. Douglas is coming down to help Bonnie today. They will put fawna in the sling I am sure. The animal acupuncturist will be over on Thursday.

We got about a foot of snow last night. Although I still got to work on time, I feel disoriented. I forgot my watch, my belt, and the coal bags. I have a lot going on at work, that is stressful.
