And with the high expected at around 70 today, it’s the perfect day to take a stroll.

Walks are even more fun with a dog!

Meet Seth who is part Chihuahua and is very well behaved.  We really have to find this guy at permanent home.  He was originally adopted and then returned because of behavior problems.  His behavior was not the problem but rather the family who adopted said their 10 year old was not taking care of him as promised so they just turned him back in last summer.  Can you find it in your heart to share your home with him?  He’s at the Animal Services Center of the Mesilla Valley

It was on this day in 1915 that the Revenue Cutter Service and the Life Saving Service were merged into the newly established US Coast Guard.

1973 – This long time hell raisin’ rock ‘n roller made his debut at the Grand Ole Opry. He promised not to play any rock and roll and not to cuss. He broke both promises.  It was the “Killer,” Jerry Lee Lewis.

was produced by Quincy Jones who said of the performer “He behaves like an adolescent and, at the same time, like a wise old philosopher.”  He went on to say, “I feel kind of responsible for him. I’m totally involved in his life, but at times, it’s him who plays the role of father.” The performer’s actual father played a very influential role in his music, especially in the beginning, but by the time today’s single was number one on January 20, 1980, he was putting some distance between himself and his dad, as well as the rest of his family, with whom he had made music for much of the previous decade. And that brings us to today’s 101 number one song of the day from Michael Jackson – “Rock with You.”
