Frustrations, Friends and Family—-Sunday, July 13, 2014

Posted on by

Frustrations first–because I need to complain, since it has been irritating, and because once I tell you I’m not saying it again.  (I hope)

Our internet has been down!!!  I’m way, way, way behind on answering all your great comments, visiting your blogs and my emails since my request to know what type of bird I have visiting our sugar water feeders.  I’ve called Skybeam and they just keep telling me it’s the tower.  Okay…I wait.

Right at this moment I’m able to get on…I’m typing fast, just in case I lose connection. 🙂

Elaine-Kenny

We had a wonderful visit from Elaine and Bob Kenny….very long-time blog readers on Friday.  They were heading over from the Front Range–Eastern Slope—of Colorado and stopped by.

Linkin was hanging out at the house when they came so she stayed for dinner with all of us.  At some point in the table conversation it came up that Linky loves archery.  Bob’s face just beamed at her; why he does too.  In fact he was a State Champion in Archery and set to go to the Olympics when the dire need to ‘go to work’ set in and he never got to go.

As soon as we were through eating, even before I did the dishes…dishes can always wait…Linkin and I jumped into the pick-up and drove down to her house and got her two bows and quiver of arrows.

The rest of the evening was a fun filled archery experience.  Something Linkin would not have gotten if Mr. Bob and Elaine had not come to visit!

Got-it Gradually, the light started to fade.

The-Kenny's Elaine and Bob got into their really cool, go-fast car, waved good-bye and headed off to Montrose, Colorado.

What a neat experience for Linkin, Terry and I!

Elaine wrote today saying it rained all the way back and was cool in the forest they call home.

Elaine's-Rainbow-3Here is a rainbow she sent me two weeks ago when she was out for a walk.  Giant Pines and a gift of hope and love in the sky.

Don’t forget if you would have a great photo of a rainbow (or anything else) I would love to publish here on my blog.  I will always, always, always give you credit!

I hope my internet stays and I can get back into my routine of visiting each of you!

Your friend

  2. I’m sorry to hear about your frustrating experiences with the internet going out. I hope the problem is soon fixed. I really like your pictures of Linkin showing off her archery skills. I’m glad you and your friends had such a great time together.

  3. Ugh! I always have internet issues. Especially trying to post photos. That’s probably why I don’t blog more frequently. We have one provider here. You would think with the wide open spaces we would have faster service. Not so. I’ve tried to get other devices, but they don’t offer them here! Hope you get yours up and running soon.

  8. Happy weekend! I know how annoying it is when the internet is out….we are so used to having everything right there and when I don’t have it, I realize how much I use it (whether that is good or bad…)

  11. Hoping the server problems go away fast. How did we ever live without our blog friends? Thanks again for being showing us so much hospitality when we stopped by. How super to have an archer show up to spend time with Linkin.
