What a long trip for Terry and a coming home for Evan.  They rolled in about dark Tuesday night, making it one day sooner than originally planned.  They had at first thought about going through Texas, into New Mexico, but instead cut through the panhandle of Oklahoma right into to Colorado.

Boy was I ever glad to see them!

Irrigating worked out fine, I only had two horrible problems, the head gate broke, (just before the guys got home) and a pipe split, but I was able to work around both of them.  The head gate had to be fixed by the ditch company, but wire held everything together until Terry could talk to the Ditch Rider. 

Now I am just back to being the back-up farmhand.  This is good, real good.

And the granddaughters get to help by riding up to Grammy’s for a visit.

It won’t be long now until Bladen is out of school so we will have two helpers when we irrigate.

Big sigh of relief!
