2017: Woke to watch the sky change colors as the sun rose, and after breakfast we went out for a walk about the property. Craig had a conference call so Karen showed us around. Went up to the cliffs for a view across the property - amazing! We've been in parks that were comparable, but they weren't private! After lunch we joined Craig and Danny as they went about the property and planned future earth-moving projects to redirect the flow of water. It was a great chance for Ashley and I to see more of the place. After Danny dropped us back off, the four of us went up to the upper cabin. It had an amazing view! Craig found a shed elk antler as we walked about. Burgers for supper and then early bed for everyone.
2018: Woke early to start the crockpot for lunch. Spent the morning cooking andcleaning - baked a half-loaf of soda bread and made salsa and salad to gowith beans and rice for lunch. Amanda, Charlie, and the kids joined us fora meal and round of Rummikub before they had to leave. Great to catch upwith them! Cleaned up and then out for a walk to the river trail. I sat andsketched the river while Ashley continued on for a bit. Then stopped atAnimas Brewing for a drink and chatting (roughly planning an anniversarytrip) and then headed home for the evening.
2019: In to work. Got caught up on some paperwork and chores and such. Videointerview for the mural along with Hayley and Lexis. Picked up Ashley, wegrabbed some groceries and headed home. Chili from the crockpot smelleddelish and tasted pretty good. Enjoyed it out on the porch. I worked onpaperwork a bit more and then we headed to bed and read for a bit.
2020: Up a touch early and took care of Lily while Ashley got some work done.Lily was restless throughout the day - I don't think she felt great. I gother to take a nap on my chest, so I watched a landscape tutorial whilelaying there. We all went for a walk around the lake while Ashley wastaking a break. I took trash and ashes off and ran into Lauren at themailboxes so we chatted for a few minutes. Managed to squeeze in some workand raked for a few minutes while supper was heating up. Tired day foreveryone!
2021: Nice morning with everyone. Headed to the airport with Norma and Jim, thenon to the store for the rest of the work day. Marquee sign, caught up withKristen and Robin, took care of some chores. Got the information for therestaurant that's for sale (doesn't make enough money to justify the neededtime). Headed home and Jackie had supper mostly ready while Ashley wasworking on Lily's bath. We ate porkchops for supper (delish!) then sataround chatting for the rest of the evening.
2022: One more morning with Norma and Jim. They went to Tumbling Tots while Istayed home and did some chores. Swapped out mirrors on the motorcycle.After Lily's short nap we headed to the airport once again. They checked inand we grabbed coffees and chatted in the airport cafe for a bit. Then theyheaded through security and we headed on home.
