Yesterday Bonnie came over and polished the woodwork in the house, especially cleaning and oiling all the cabinets and the bookcases in the studio. You can sure see the difference and they are sparkling now. THANK YOU BONNIE, I'M VERY GRATEFUL FOR ALL YOU DO AND FOR YOUR FRIENDSHIP. I got the studio carpet sprinkled with pet fresh and thoroughly vacuumed in there and the same in the living room. The carpet in the studio is an ivory color berber with flecks so its light colored. Wth the dogs in here so much it gets pretty dirty. I was surprised how clean the soiled areas came with slowly and thoroughly vacuuming. I did it about four times. It looks pretty good. So I don't need to consider using the steam cleaner right now. Guess I usually vacuum too fast. Betty always said I go at everything like I was killing snakes. Maybe its good to slow down.
It was pretty nice all day with some sun, but mostly cloudy. Bonnie took a few plants for her yard, and while we were out it was very dark - navy blue - to the west. But it just sat there the same for some hours. By dinnertime it was raining again, pretty hard at times, and rained all night. This morning it's partly sunny again. Joe walked out to irrigate a little. The Richies took a little bunch of their cattle out to the desert this morning. They had their yellow slickers on, but as they left they had lucked out and were having sunshine. The Salt Lake station says this rainy weather is just going to keep on the same way up into next week.
Sandra called. She has her grandkids here for most of the summer.
Curtis will be here tonight. He called and said he's taking a motorcycle trip up to Glacier Park and back, or whatever strikes him interesting at the time he will turn off and do. He called a little bit ago and said he was in Rock Springs, so will be here soon. The weather sure isn't very nice for traveling around here anyway. Off and on, you can't see a thing. But he said he has a little time right now - 5 days - and if he waits, between his work and the new house he and Debbie are building, he won't get any vacation all summer. Last I heard the house should be finished in September. It should be very beautiful.
