SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO—-When Life Gives You Lemons—-Thursday, August 2, 2018

The smoke from all the fires…fires in Utah, two on the Uncompahgre Plateau (which you can’t see right now because of the smoke), the one at Crawford, over at Rifle, three at Meeker, one in Parachute…

Terry said…”Let’s go for a ride!”

Who could turn THAT down? Not me!

Off we went…traveling here and there, then home again.

Later that evening…much later.  The smoke thinned somewhat and I saw MARS!
Running in to get my camera I was delighted to actually have a photo of that stunning red planet!

Payment for a Hair Cut—-Wednesday, April 6, 2016

Our oldest daughter is a hair dresser by trade, having trained in New York City at the Vidal Sassoon Training Academy/School whatever it is called, plus worked in Cherry Creek and in San Francisco where she taught others her skills.  Today she and Jason live in our other house (YAY) and she works in Grand Junction, Colorado.

GTOThe really nice part of having her close is we get to have our hair ‘done’ right here on the farm.  When Terry went to pay her she said: “Just give me a ride in one of the cars.”

GTO-1So off they went.

A win-win for all of us!

The Moon last night was outstanding!

Witching-Moon

We were in town for a little drive…the day had been hot and we were a little tired so we loaded up the dogs and headed to town.

Pink-Moon

Our little town is creating a by-pass for traffic that wishes to not drive down Main street or wait for the many trains that travel through several times a day.  Every day the construction changes so we thought we would ‘go see’ what it looks like.

Lake-3

We looked at the by-pass, drove around town and looked at the houses up for sale, some very pretty yards and then headed on home — the long way–going by Confluence Lake and Park.

Lake-2

The moon was outstanding and the sunset over the lake stunning.

Lake-5

Today we are expecting company around noon, so I much get myself busy.

I am still very behind on answering comments and visiting your blogs…gradually I am getting caught-up.  Please know that I really do appreciate your stopping by and leaving comments.  I also enjoy very much seeing what is going on in your lives.  Do not give up on me for I am gradually getting a routine back into my life.

Your Friend,

Linda
