Bill and Jeannie

Our friends Bill and Jeannie from Richmond, Kentucky were here the third week in September, and we had a great time with them. We hiked in the Lizard Head Wilderness (at left) and got snowed on.















Here's another shot just before it started to snow and rain. We were on the Navajo Lake Trail.











We also went on a horseback ride south of Mancos at the Robbers Roost Ranch. It was a lot of fun, and makes me wish we had horses. If only we had someone to take care of them...















Bill and Erica played some music. I banged on the bass until they told me to stop. Erica has been getting some tunes ready to try and teach me, so we will see if they'll take. Kinda like trying to teach a dog to drive a car.









Last Thursday, this tree decided to split. It has been raining so much since then that I haven't been able to get it cut up and pulled out. We have had over two inches of rain the last four days, so I can't complain about that.

Anybody need some firewood?

Wow, looks like you guys had fun, although someone snapped a picture of horse-butt =( But I do like the picture of Erica by the tree; she looks kinda proud, like she personally ripped the branch off. No? Then it's just me, but I hope that it won't be too big a job getting it out of there (unless that's already happened- I did comment very late...)

Oh Mark, you would have to notice the horse butt. I just happened to be at the end of the line, thus my view was of the proverbial south end of the north bound horse.

Well regardless of why you chose to fill 30% of the picture with equine tush, I too am jealous that I'm not there. We'll have to take the dog out hiking or something when we visit for Christmas!

Gosh, Celia, thanks for viewing my blog! I'm flattered. And your comment is "really good written" too. I guess that is a result of using some of those products you advertize. Party on!

Just when man first discovered that feather covered hooks could be very effective bet basketball fishing equipment is shrouded in the mists of time. Archaeologists believe that the fishing hook was discovered sometime around 30,000 years ago in southern Europe. sportsbook The hooks, which were eventually provided with barbs, were first manufactured of bone and probably also of different wooden materials. This mosaic shows fisherman of the Ancient world using flexible bending soft rods not the stiff stick rods you would imagine. Look at the march madness design of his landing net. This mosaic was amongst others discovered in1933 at the Leptic Magna site in Tripoli and dates back to the 1st or 2nd century AD. It is the first ever record of a landing net.
