Wednesday July 1

















Another month gone by. Hard to believe how quickly June raced into the past.

Today's pictures are of the smoke from that fire I described yesterday, taken from Kay's second story deck. The photos seem kind of hazy, so maybe there was some smoke in the air. The others are of the Green River and Faler Creek on the 7D Ranch, the hayfields and pastures, ranch buildings and the Green River Valley. George is the foreman at the 7D.

Today is quite cloudy, pleasantly cool and this afternoon there have been lots of lightning flashes with distant thunder. It started raining nicely about 3 p.m. The sound of rain on the roof is so relaxing. It sure looked like it would rain last night, there was such a black front that went over, but it never did.

I'm not doing much today, but slowly feeling better. Joe is still doing his water pumping job getting up in the night a couple of times, and out there early in the morning. He got his new pump day before yesterday. Can't believe it's all lightweight plastic. Joe says it's a piece of shit. I thought the UPS man dropped it in his truck, I heard such a clamor of falling things with cursing etc, and I outright asked him if he dropped it and he said no.

Debbie called this afternoon, so was glad to talk to her. They will be in their new house in about two more months. The work is going along really well and its ready to be painted inside. Stucco then paint outside will be next. Will make hot German potato salad for dinner tonight. Joe asked for it a few days ago but we didn't have enough bacon then.
