Horse Creek Fire From The Ranch at Sunset
(o.k. I won't put any more smoky sunsets in)

We've got this flock of crows that have decided they like our place and have taken up roosting in the trees in back at night. They are so noisy, I don't want them around. This has never happened before and I don't know what the deal is.

Wind has come up hard again this afternoon. Good to keep the bugs off if you're out. Charm called and Jo up in Bondurant says its so smoky up there that she wondered if we wanted to postpone the Mixed Media meeting at her house until another time. So we decided not to go. Bummer.

I've spent several hours on the phone today, and more phone calls the last 3 days, with service people trying to get someone to come and fix or replace the TV. All I've gotten so far is the run around from one place to another. They even had me talking to Sears - what a waste of time! (I bought it at Best Buy but they said some companies contract with Sears to repair appliances.) Much more of it and I'm going to get pretty mad. They are all saying that its too far to come, but they have all our money etc. etc. One thing I'm enjoying while it lasts.....no fox news or sports blasting all day. Joe's playing his CDs on the Bose radio/CD player so that's pretty nice, or he gets bored enough that he goes outside and finds something else to do.



CARVINGS ON THE ASPENS
AND COLLECTION OF POEMS

'

The writer's group I belong to, Sublette County Artists Guild, is having a drive to sell more copies of the last book we published. It is a reproduction of two of the favorite old books of history, poetry and photographs that the Guild has done. The original Carvings on the Aspens is long out of print, and quite valuable when you can get one. The members are being asked to sell five books each this summer in order to reduce the inventory. They make wonderful gifts. They cost $26 plus S&H. If you would like one please let me know and I'll see that you get it. (Help me sell more of them than Judi.....she's sold about 20 of them!!)
