Old Store Building at Boulder
Road to Big Sandy Openings - FallThese are the pastels that I finished and took to the framer. I showed them before in the beginning stages. Although I've had compliments on them, I'm not that happy with either one, as they seem to have lost their freshness to me. But I will just keep trying to get better with the pastels.
Yesterday we drove in to Pinedale. Picked up the flowers from Ridley's Florist Shop. Then up to the cemetery. Joe found Jim's grave while I went to look at the map for directions. We've always had trouble finding the grave, because when Jim was buried it was beside two big pine trees. Those died and they took them out. We lost our landmarks. Joe will be able to find it from now on.
I got some groceries then we went to the The Patio were we had some lunch. Brought the leftovers for the dogs and took them for a walk - lots of mud. There sure was a crowd of vehicles at the Irish Canyon road when we came home- atvs. Saw 8 machines going up the hill. Hate to see this "end" get popular.
I won't go to the Mixed Media and Artist Guild (writer's group business) meetings today. It's just too many days to be gone. Charm is hostessing the Mixed Media and baking cookies. Although I almost would go just to have one of her cookies. They will be talking about the new art center which is really making progress now. The plans and property are all going ahead full speed. They will try to get a vote for 1/10 of a cent sales tax ? for a bond ? to finance an endowment fund next. They can get about 18 million dollars ? in 2 years from that, then the tax will go away. Just the interest on the investment of that money will pay for expenses and maintenance after the building is done.
Muddy Creek has finally gotten some high water in the last week. It looks good spreading out after so much drought. The ducks, geese and birds all seem to love it. Most people wouldn't believe it seeing the small stream in summer, but it can flood and take out road crossings and culverts along its whole length gouging washouts so we haven't been able to get out. Through our area Muddy is essentially a marsh. In the last several years even the cattails have been struggling to live. We got more good rain last evening, nothing to speak of during the day until then. Then it snowed a slushy blizzard. It shut the TV dish down twice and also the Internet connection. We each went out in the blustery darkness at different times to sweep the snow off the dishes.
Joe is out early today dragging. He told me he wasn't going to do it, but there he is. I'll get a picture.
This is This is the first time I've seen quite this kind of presentation and then the 4 or 5 you tube videos embedded in it. You need a little time to read it all. Now I wonder what the commercial looks like. (Charm passed it on to me. Her sis-in-law Buffy writes: ) "Check out this site- My friend Ginger has been involved in shooting commercials for a Honda campaign. She is a world class skydiver. She's in one of the clips at the bottom of the page. Ginger talks about a typical day."
