First Touch of FallDidn't seem like a holiday here, in fact was just like every other day except the mail didn't come. Got hot for a while, thunderstormy for a while with no rain, and back to gorgeous evening. The big news is that I DID get the ironing done, knew you were waiting to hear the outcome of that.
Yesterday after Joe had let Bobbi out of the corral and I knew he wouldn't be tearing bales apart twice a day any more, I got the barn cleaned up. It took me all afternoon, and it was an awful mess. I feel like I can go ahead with the show now even though there's still a big stack of hay in there. All the frames still need to be cleaned and dusted again.
Tomorrow we'll go to Rock Springs. Joe has an annual VA checkup so he can remain on their prescription drug program. So the trip will also include power shopping at WalMart.
I've finished another pastel painting, and although it is simple, I like it. It is a landscape with cottonwoods and rabbitbrush. It was the one started with a tipi in it, and I just could never make it look right so took the tipi out. Here is a photo of it above along with another small oil painting done at Round Hill Ranch retreat.
