Joe Cleaning the CorralBetty got here about 2:30 p.m. yesterday. We didn't go to the tea, so I will plan on it for next year. We have been visiting and didn't do much today. Last night I sent Dawn 26 photos for the article that she will put onto pinedaleonline about the art show. She wanted 50, but 26 took me until about 2 or 3 a.m. so I've been really worn out today.
This morning we thought about going in to town to shop for appliances, but in the end it wouldn't have done any good. I found out all I needed to with a phone call. We googled stoves and dishwashers last night and some this morning and got a pretty good idea of features of the main brands and what to get. I may have decided on getting Maytag for both. And called the man in charge of the appliances at Falers and he said he could get Maytag even though they don't carry that brand. They will come in about 2 weeks after I order them. I'll probably have Falers get them, and will have to call a person to install them if Joe doesn't want to do it. He may want to install them himself in that case.
This afternoon we took all the dogs for a slow ATV ride/run around the field. Amigo hadn't done this before, unless he did it in his previous life. He had a ball. Betty rode on the seat behind me. Amigo is a big Rottweiler and she has always been concerned that he and Sparky would fight. I never thought they would, and they have been good as gold, so Amigo is getting more and more privileges for being off his leash or long line. He has ignored nearby antelope and the horses. Afterwards we sat in lawn chairs for a while, until it got cool. Tomorrow we may take an easy sightseeing drive and will be looking for yellow aspens.
Joe began to clean out the corral today and will use the manure to put out on the field for fertilizer. So I got a couple of pictures of him working on that chore. I made really easy baked breaded pork chops for dinner. We all had some of Aubrey's blackberry wine a little bit ago, excellent, and are ready to call it a night.
