Mountain Man Horse
Mountain ManBack again. O.K. here goes. Have missed five days blogging, mostly because we've been having way too much fun. I will try to catch up today. Need to just have a quiet day anyway. I'll do the text for each day since Monday first, then gradually work on the photos and stick them in where they go. My memory after the fact is always a problem. So come on back later if you have missed seeing the last week.
Today is clear, about 64 degrees sunny with a little breeze and a hazy overcast. Still a chance of thunderstorms predicted. The hay has grown a lot in the last week and looking like it will be a beautiful crop.
Joe has vacuumed while I sat here. He is still pumping water out of the basement and the hole in the shop where the pressure tanks and well are. He has a hose with sprinkler connected to the pump and waters the yard with it. Like it needs more watering lately. Too bad we don't have that much water to use on the yard in a dry year. He sets his alarm in the night and gets up then too, to pump in the shop. I've read the mail and fixed some leftovers for lunch. Later I'll sort out receipts and pay the bills. Dogs are happy just to lay in the house out of the mosquitoes.
Betty called about noonish when she got home to Mesquite to say she had arrived there, and had all her pets, Cody the dog, Goldie the basement cat and Caitlin all at home. There were lots of qual and bunnies in her yard, probably taking advantage of the dog being gone. Betty calledagain in the evening to say Nancy was in Sacramento and had to sit in the depot until 1 a.m. when her train leaves for Eugene OR. Then she will sit on the train until tomorrow afternoon and Bud will pick her up. They won't get home until 8 p.m. She will not be able to even lay down until then.
