Absolutely beautiful morning. We left home by 8:30 and had time to walk the dogs near the bike path so they would be o.k.waiting in the car for several hours while we went house hunting and had lunch with James. We parked them in a shady spot near the real estate office and off we went to see five more houses.
Another picture of yellow trees - beautiful.
House hunting. This was a very nice place sitting up on Orcutt Hill with probably the best view of the mountains. It has a stone walk and stairs in several places that would take some redoing in order for them to be "elderly" safe. I liked several of the houses today. We've looked at 13 or 14 homes and probably everything available within our guidelines. There is quite a variety and they all have pros and cons, of course. Now it is time to sort through every thing we've seen and pick out the top half dozen or so and show them to Joe in a day or so. James has done a great job helping us look.
Kathy met us at the Brew Pub for a nice lunch and it sure was good to see her. Thank you for the meal and the nice day you guys.
After lunch we let the dogs out again, this time taking the nature trail through the park next to Pine Creek. They had to swim of course so after this we rode with stinky wet dogs. 
"Walking the Dogs" - We sat and listened to the water run.
Downtown Pinedale Wyoming - couldn't have been a more perfect day. We've been seeing lots of geese in their formations, getting ready to fly south for the winter.
This is a part of the new veterans memorial in the park. It's the first time I've seen it close up. It's very nicely done. There are polished monuments with every Sublette County veteran's names on them. 
There is Joe's brother Jim's name - James M. Thomas - and shows how polished the rock is - the rock is actually black, but the reflection is something. We couldn't figure out what the stars, triangles, crosses, etc. mean.
This shows from a distance part of the monuments where the names are listed on the left. The uprights are some kind of polished black rock and the names are carved into them. I think there are three sets like the one above, but couldn't figure out exactly how the names were listed - it needs a code listed somewhere so you know what you're looking at.
We ran the car through the car wash and then we had ice cream cones, yes - the boys too. They shared a baby cone. Then we drove on home.
The ingredients for turkey vegetable soup for dinner. This made an easy meal, with some croissants and watermelon. Sparky was ever hopeful for scraps from the turkey.
Betty will be leaving in the morning. We will both miss her. She got her laundry done up and the car mostly packed.
