Ruby Mountains



About today's picture - I've had so many similar photos of fall and snow lately that I decided to put one I like from our trip to Northern Nevada last spring that I never used. It is of some fields and cattle on the west slope of the Ruby Mountains. Sure pretty there.

Another really nice day. We haven't had much to do today - or if there is we're not doing it. Debbie did the little bit of ironing there was. Thank you very much for doing that dear Debbie. Joe went out and checked the big front gate, and got yesterday's mail. Bonnie and Craig are coming over tomorrow afternoon to put the second new gate up. I'm anxious to see it.

We have one more real estate paper to scan and send to James with our signature. We tried that yesterday to send the counter offer and the scanner wouldn't quite cooperate - it took a lot of time - then past the deadline it finally decided to go. So hope it's got the kinks out today. We're making lists of what we need to buy, and what will be taken to the new house from here.

Debbie also got the boxes out to the barn so we can begin to pack up the paintings from the Art Show in the Barn display. Some will go to be hung in the new house and also some for the Mixed Media Art Show in November. And I organized some of my painting supplies. Then I painted a little bit today. Some things to do artwork with will go to the new house, but I'll try to keep that to a minimum. There's always the art supply catalogs if I need something. Debbie and I are watching the new "3:10 to Yuma". She's going to make fried chicken for dinner. She made oatmeal cookies yesterday that are really good.

Curtis and Tayler called today from Reno. He had gone up to see her on his motorcycle and they were sitting there somewhere having sushi. She says she's doing good in her classes and having fun with her friends.

This spell after chemo has been pretty miserable. I mostly slept for the last two days, and am finally coming out of it this afternoon. I get to thinking I would like to stop having the chemo. I don't know what that would do. I've mentioned it already, but the pain I get in my neck and shoulder is hardly stopped with the pain pills - they have usually taken care of pain pretty well but not this. I think it will never go away, but then it gradually does. Tomorrow should be better.

Sheral and their family are here at their ranch after a long visit in Texas. They are closing their place up for the winter, and may come over tomorrow before they go home to Layton.

That's about it for today.
