Rowdy - Jackie's Pug - The bottom one is with her grandson Brandon.
Jackie wrote this morning and yesterday she lost her little pug dog Rowdy, who has been having seizures lately. I was so sorry to hear that. Jackie and her family live on a wheat farm in eastern Washington.
Today is Utah's Pioneer Days, in fact it is celebrated in several states. It always used to be a big weekend at the lodge for people from Utah to come up for a long weekend.
Sorry not to have blogged much lately, and now it's catchup again. But I've just been recuperating from our days at Round Hill and getting caught up here at the ranch. I haven't felt the greatest and that is partly why I haven't written too. Nothing has really happening to report. Have gotten the photos downloaded and will just put some of them in with captions to share the times there at the painting retreat and not try to catch up what went on each day. I seem not inclined to spend that much time on the blog right now. Then go forward from here.
We have hoards of tiny grasshoppers again. I saw the first ones over a week ago and told Joe we should call the Weed and Pest control. Since I've been back and see how many there are now I called them to report this morning. They can do a lot of damage in a short time. I noticed on the way home the other day that several of the ranches near Boulder have started haying, and our irrigation water is off now so the hay will be ready for cutting soon. We had a thundershower in the afternoon.
SCROLL ON DOWN FOR A PHOTO ESSAY OF OUR FIVE DAYS AT THE PAINTING RETREAT LAST WEEK.
