Prom Night

Just seems like the other day my little guy was a baby. Now…he  is 6’4” and I have to look up to him.

Have a great time little buddy Mom and Dad love you so much. This will be a great memory forever…

Snow again last night

 Once again we had a little snow last night.  The River behind us is almost out of its banks. We still have below freezing nights and that has saved us from an even more rapid melt. 

No doubt the excessive snow fall has helped the Valley meet its water requirements. We should have a great growing season…

My little boy passed his driving test

 

Yes he made it

Friday was the day Kris went for his driving test. I think I was more nervous than he was. All went well and now he is a Colorado driver! 

Now I don’t have to ride along everywhere he wants to go. He will be paying for his insurance so that means a J O B. We will see how that works out…

A baby sitting day

Mom had to work so Maw and Poppa have Dakota today  

Before you know it they are grown…

Today we are in Creede Colorado

The museum 

Sports store

The classic downtown view

I dodged jury duty and thought I might sneak in a nap but everyone gained up on me and talked me into going shopping in Creede!

Not my favorite pastime but I was out numbered. So I agreed to go but I stayed close to the truck because it started to snow! They do have some great sporting good stores but I have just about all they sell. 

I did take some pictures for future artwork. I long to return to my studio and paint but that will come

Today is jury duty

 

 

Me going to jury duty

Me being released from jury duty

Don’t get me wrong I know it is my duty as a citizen to sit on a jury. But come on the fish are biting and the sun is out…what more could a guy want. There should only be jury trials in the winter when there is nothing else to do!

Well I am going to do something good today to make up for me being happy about not doing the jury thing. I will take a good nap and take Sherri out to eat. That should do it…

Time to get ready for the summer

 

Well it is time to get everything ready for the warmer temps. We have to take our underpinning off by the 20 of this month. We spent yesterday changing out the anodes on the water heaters. I see that we will have to do this more often. Ours were really in need of changing. 

The wind is really blowing today so we will have to wait for a calmer day to pull the underpinning down. Just a note…posting on my phone changed underpinning to underpants! Now that would have really confused my readers! 

We are heading to Monte today to get our storage building ready for some of our winter things. We change out season to season so we are not overloaded with STUFF. 

I really look forward to the warm months ahead. I will get my fishing license renewed while in town. I am turning over a new leaf this year…I will be doing me some fishing every chance I get…

Newest grandson came to visit

M needed a shower so she let us keep the baby. I think great Maw liked it. I know she will be sharing Van with us…

Resorting to my iphone

 

I have started to post using my iPhone. Seems like my computer is not doing right. 

These are a couple of my latest artworks. I am working on local landscape in my area. The smaller art has done well with RVers because they have less wall space than sticks and brick folks. 

We have been having good weather of late which gives me the opportunity to go on site to sketch and paint. The Aspens are on the road to Summitville. I will be returning to that location soon to do more pictures. I have many requests for aspens from this area. 

We have some of our family up from Texas. My granddaughter Emmy and my newest grandson Van are here for a couple of weeks. I know we will have many great adventures to share with you…
