Happy May Day. We have our most beautiful spring morning yet. Hope it stays this way for a while.
Here's a note I have to share with you: Sandra Goodwin has left a new comment on your post "Thursday April 26 2007": Hey Lynn Enjoying your blog and wanted to say it's "corporate jets". Let's educate the public. Very very few people, rich or otherwise, have a private jet. It is almost always owned by a company, mostly for tax purposes. Also lots of folks just "buy a ride" from places like Netjets who fly your anywhere for the right price. ........So consider yourself told!! And I'll try to remember the difference.
Got the house in fair shape by the time Betty, Nancy and Amigo arrived about 2 p.m. for a 5 day stay. We took a short walk with the dogs. Since Amigo had visited last year in October, the dogs all remembered one another and were a better pack this time. They got settled in their rooms. Tonight in their honor we had fillet Mignon, baked potatoes, baked onions, broccoli and salad. I baked a chess pie. Conversation and catching up was ongoing until bedtime. Nancy had not been here to the ranch before.
One thing we did was set a trap with canned cat food for one of the cats which had been in the garage, locked in for who knows how long and refusing to get back out when we left the door open for it. We left the trap there for several days, and never caught the cat, so know that it got back out on its own. We suspect Traveler and hopefully he won't want to do that again. It could be dangerous for his health locked in without food or water unbeknownst to us.
By afternoon it had clouded up and was breezy. After dinner we took a ride, and took the dogs along, up Muddy Canyon to the Elk Feed Ground. Along the way were lots of cows with their new little calves. A short walk there to view the scenery at sunset, it was still very chilly, and back home by dusk. We should have seen some deer and elk, but there were none at that particular time. The leaves on aspens and cottonwoods were barely beginning to unfurl.
