Flagstaff trip short circuited

Behold, my new license plate! 

I can't believe that no one had already picked "COLOR" for their plate. I like how it reads as "ARIZONA COLOR." For the background I chose, naturally, a sunset design.

Unfortunately, I can't put it on my car yet because it's at the Toyota dealer for repairs. As I was driving to Flagstaff (200 miles away) yesterday to meet my blogger friend Judy, about five warning lights suddenly went on and I had a panic attack because I was hemmed in my semi trucks on I-10 out in the desert and because I have massive anxiety anytime I drive long distance alone. 

I called the dealer who advised me to bring it straight in, so I turned around and drove back, gripping the wheel tightly while hoping nothing would explode. Turns out there's a short in the oil control valve, which short circuited my trip. On the bright side, they gave me a free ride home and Judy and I will do our show and tell via Zoom. 

So instead of having fun in Flagstaff, I sat on my front porch last night watching another awesome Arizona sunset.

Judy and I planned to do a show and tell. Here is the quilt top I was going to show.

I also have more masks to send off to a couple of friends.

Temps here are still topping 100 degrees, but later in the week the monsoon rains are expected to "cool" things down into the 90s. I took this picture of my shadow at sunset. It looks like I'm at the gates to hell!

Have a colorful day
