Morning folks

My bator is chirping, got 64 viable eggs in lock down. two external pips.

I have quail hatching. But not that many.

So sorry Deb, it never matters how prepared we are it still hurts

You may know that it is for the best, but, yes, it still is a loss. Positive memories remain if we are lucky.

Talked my hubby into going for a small hike the other day. This canyon isn't far from us. It's called Mapleton Canyon. We used to live in that town of Mapleton. I would take our motorhome up there for about a month and a half to stay. Easy to drive back down into town. I would have grandkids come and stay a few days at a time. Our dogs were with us. Hubby stayed home during the week while he worked, came up after, and stayed on weekends. It's so pretty up there. I should have gotten photos of the surroundings. Just these of us and our Cooper. First time we've gone up without a Golden Retriever. What did we see hiking back down into the camping area? A golden Retriever. Aww...! His name was Gary..he he, love it. He had the big block head like my first Golden. He wanted to play with our little Cooper. lol...the lady says, that's interesting, we've passed other dogs on the trail and he didn't want to play. Our Cooper is a frisky one. If these two hadn't been on a leash, they would have been off. Anyway, couldn't get a photo in our regular doggy photo spot...so much water! It was good to see. We went further up and sat on this log that's been there forever. Couldn't get to the big rock because of there being more water, and we weren't dressed for getting a bit wet. Again, that was good to see more water. The most we've seen in years! No drought this year! Hubby loves this little dog. . Here's us.. sitting..by..the water with our Cooper. Need to make it up there one more time this year. View attachment 1876567 View attachment 1876569

Catching up...

Good Morning to all - my last greeting as Lady Diane! No time to write a book, but just a note to say everything has gone off without a single glitch. Oh, and a few photos...

I've been on the phone all morning making arrangements for my son's visit next month. So looking forward to it! While he's here, we're going to head up to NE Wyoming to see Devil's Tower. Got our room reservations made and a new lifetime National Park pass ordered. This year (in a very long time) I'll be with him on his birthday!

Bad news, good news, bad news! I like the weight still moving in the right direction. Can't really like the other two! I hope the engine repair isn't too expensive.

Mom just called Grandma passed in her sleep at 9:45 pm Pacific time.

OK, that isn't one I was ready for given you haven't been reporting any serious ailments!
You did so much for her so she could stay at home for quite a long time.

Talked my hubby into going for a small hike the other day.

Lovely day!
