Blast from the past
Had a long phone conversation with an old friend from Mustang Software yesterday. We hadn't talked for years and years. It was fun catching up on things and seeing the changes in our respective lives. I'll have to devote some time and energy into renewing those...
New Baby Pics

Irrigation ditch work
Spent a few days building an irrigation diversion box and began the installation yesterday. Had to break out the side of the concrete V-ditch to make a connection to the new diversion box. I'll post some 'after' pics in a few days, but this is one taken during...
Blast from the past (redux)
Taken sometime in fall of 1968 is my best guess. Joanne (first wife) and I met at UM College Park. The Zonker raced at Capitol Raceway and posted high...
mmmm, asparagus
All along the irrigation ditch that runs adjacent to our property we have the best volunteer asparagus. On any given day we can just take a walk and pick as much as we need for a great snack or dinner compliment. It is so...
2nd New Foal This Year
I just realized that I didn't post a pic of the new colt born Sunday May 3. The photo below was taken when he was 7 days old. His momma was a maiden mare and both baby and momma were challenged by the whole nursing thing. Baby didn't know where the teat was or...
Green Mist

Stringing fence
Today I added some cross fencing to the horse pasture. It's easy. Just push in t-posts with the Bobcat , cover with the HorseGuard plastic sleeves, pop in the tape guides and string the electric...
Sandi is the Pied Piper
Sandi and the geese get along great. They sit in her lap and peck lightly at her rings and bracelet as she pets them. After a bit they quiet down and just relax and poop on her...
Animated Drum Crushing
This is brutal. What you are seeing is a 55 gallon drum being devoured by a crusher. Imagine falling into that! Just a random animated .gif image I ran...
Sunset over the Cimarrons
Sandi and I went to Montrose to help Jeff and Leta paint their house and do some grading with the Bobcat. It was a fun day that culminated with dutch-oven ribs server outside under a beautiful sunset. The image below was taken looking almost straight up as the sun...
Hooked up again
I had my final surgery on Thursday to reverse my ileostomy and I'm being released from the hospital in a few hours. Woo-hoo! All systems seem to be working fine and I'm digesting scrambled eggs & pancakes as I write this. I still have a month or so of healing...
