Raining, Snowing and Stuck in Traffic

Since it was raining on Sunday

We decided this was a good time to go visit Terry’s Mom and Sister and Brother-in-law

And maybe visit a John Deere dealer or two and go to a couple of farm sales

We have to travel over the Rocky Mountains to get to the eastern side of Colorado.

As we go the traffic picks up and up and up….UGH!

Signs warn us all along that the traffic into Denver is immense and to expect delays.

Boy,  were they ever right!  See the cars W.A.Y. back there.  We kept along at 8 miles an hour until after the tunnel.

We made it.  We got to have a nice evening with family and the next day took in some dealerships

And a retirement farm sale.

We got home late that night.  I am really glad to be back home.  I am NOT a city girl grandma.

If the weather holds we will begin tractor work Saturday!

Our Part of the Country

This past week has been busy.  A farming neighbor, two farms away had a farm sale;

They are moving to Las Vegas, Nevada.

The last of the hay was baled and stacked

We went to an antique tractor auction

We took Evan and his son (our oldest grandchild) on a train ride

In between all of this the house and yard work continued, irrigation and cultivating went on, and the SUN came out plus the wind went away.

Ahhh, life is good!

Farm Sales

One thing about farm sales it is a great place to socialize, even if you don’t buy.  Of course if you do buy then it is a great place to find something cool.

The sad thing about farm sales, it also means someone is leaving, being bought out, died, or a subdivision pushed them out.
