2017: Picked up the RV from D Bar K and headed to the Conley ranch. It startedraining just a bit before we arrived and it was too muddy to try the roadso we parked just inside the gate. We stayed inside and cleaned and gotsome reading and stuff done. Quit raining for a bit so we walked up to thehouse to meet Craig and Karen. Enjoyed just hanging out and visiting forthe evening.
2018: Slept in, read over coffee and then headed up to Molas to check out thefall colors. Stopped and hiked behind Purgatory Flats and loved walkingamong the aspens - had the trail to ourselves when we took the less-usedside branch. Then picked up a hitch-hiker on our way up to the pass - hemountain biked from Molas Pass down the mountain and was heading backtoward his truck. really interesting fella, talked about a 6 month trip toJapan and around Asia, Greece, and more. He thoroughly recommended Japanand Greece for future visits. Then we hiked down the Colorado Trail fromMolas trail parking area. Beautiful and not crowded at all! We heard thetrain, stopped and enjoyed the views, and I watercolored for a bit. Thenback into town for pizza from The Container and on home. Ashley's puttingtogether white chili for the next few days while she's gone, using upbananas in bread, and generally getting ready for her trip to Denver. I'mwrapping up the weekend and prepping for the big week. So excited!
2019: Work day. Surprise brunch with Jeramiah at Oscar's, lunch with Ashley atBuckley Park, and then a walk around a couple of blocks. Home at the end ofday and feeling less than great so soup for supper. Read for just a bitbefore early bed. Woke about 10 and up until almost 1 - reading and lookingup old jeeps online.
2020: Mom spent quite a bit of the day sleeping or in bed, catching up from herdrive. Lily had a pretty good day - her tooth hasn't emerged but isdefinitely close to the surface! I swapped out the CPU on the laptop - itbooted back up just fine, let's see how much of a difference it actuallymakes. We had spaghetti for supper. I pulled out my paints and made a bitmore progress on Tobey and Hassel's portrait.
2021: Slept in the murphy bed again. I got up early and read for a bit before thehouse started to stir. Ashley headed to the farm after breakfast while Lilyand I went to the library. We grabbed a book then headed to the playground.After lunch at one of the picnic tables we headed home for her nap. I spentmost of the afternoon putting the automatic chicken door opener togetherand installing it. There appears to be a loose wire that disconnects when Iseal it up in the box so I'll have to tighten everything tomorrow, but itclosed up tonight! Also cut a floor for inside the coop for the coldweather. We all went for a walk to the playground for a bit of fun there inthe afternoon. Chatted and read for just a bit before heading to bed.
