Sunday June 21 2009

Tillie the Airedale had herself a very enjoyable day, running and running.

Betty and Nancy with the mountain man sculpture at the Chamber of Commerce. After this we went up to the Museum of the Mountain Man for the rest of the afternoon.

Pinedale has several nice murals on the sides of some of the buildings. This is one of them painted by David Klaren.

We drove downtown, since my internet was still out, to sit in front of the library with my laptop and connect to the internet on their wireless. Was surprised to see three other cars also sitting there doing the same thing! We are on the right. It worked just fine to download a couple hundred more emails and send off a report Betty had written to her vet about how Caitlin is doing. Technology is great. We stopped for ice cream at Rock Rabbit, and it was very goooood.



Another busy day, although I'm having trouble remembering exactly what all we did. Betty and Nancy have wanted to try some window shopping, but not much is open on Sunday. The Chamber of Commerce was open and picked up some maps and brochures and asked about some of the roads, whether they are muddy because of all the rains. They may be rough or full of potholes, but we aren't likely to slide off into the ditch so it looks like we can take a couple of nice rides and not have any problem getting there. Maybe we can do that on Wednesday and Thursday. I made up a list of possibilities but we haven't gone far afield yet.

First thing in the morning we began to notice a small dog running around and around the field in back of the house. She was out there all day, and finally when she started chasing antelope we decided when she came up to the front door that we'd get her into the back yard and try to find who she belonged to. Rich our home owner assn. president was very helpful and in a few hours the owner came to get the dog. She was an Airedale puppy and very cute and smart. Her name was Tillie. Her house isn't far from ours, but she and her buddy a golden lab had gotten out of their kennel and her dad didn't notice.

Tonight we roasted a large chicken with sweet potatoes for dinner. Then there was enough left over for some nice sandwiches later.
