Morning gang Mary we mostly play city builder/civilization games. Usually we play one player and Ron runs it but I keep track of resources and people. But we also like es ape room and logic type too. He bought it when we was ill. It did wonders for his concentration and can kill a ton of time. SStill have A low grade…

Afternoon all We were up and out of the house early. Ron had a new keyboard for this new tablet delivered yesterday and had to pick up at post office in the town 25 minutes away. Then groceries. WWatched A bike race, prepped some food and cleaned up a bunch of random papers. It's much cooler here today....probably mid 70's…

Morning gang Still have a liw grade fever but substantially lower. Need a few groceries and my bike is done at the shop so might take a drive. I doubt I'm up for much else. I also need to really focus on the watering of the garden. It slipped a little week. Ron just can't see the change from green to brown ( color blind)…

Morning gang Still running a fever but feel a million % better. Hopefully I can kick this soon. Getting a little antsy and not leaving the house for days. Have a great day all.

Morning all I've been running a super high fever for the last 36 hours. Finally broke early this morning. I've taken a shower, had a coffee and a bowl of cherrios…I feel almost human again. My oura ring said +5.2 and +3.6. I'm guessing that's pretty accurate. We have many things on the calendar today but the wise move is…

Hi all. ThThe Better part of 2 days getting rins number ported from Google to mint. 2 factor is beeimg doggy with our Google accounts so one of us should have real service. I think he finally works. I'm guessing 12 hours on the phone or chat

Morning BBB Hooray for new babies, new houses, improving health, retirement and great hikes Got our printer up and running. Had to flush the ink tubes after sitting in the car unused for 5 months. Time to start gathering all the documents needed for our mexican residency appointment. Still need to do a few things to set up…

Morning gang Slept super poorly last night, so I think we'll skip our planned hike. I think today can just be exploring their property. We haven't walked down to the creek yet. Glad the new house is a go.

Morning BBB It's a beautiful morning at the pigeon ranch. Less smog than usual so we can see most of the valley. Yesterday we saw a black bear (on the way home from town), a bobcat and a doe and tiny fawn on the property. Ron saw a skunk this morning. My dad's birthday was yesterday. 72. Might Go to the organic farm today.…

Morning gang Congratulations on Gary's retirement. Headed to town for bloodwork today. Ron uses Inside tracker and they sent him a coupon so I can get mine done too. Here are most of the pigeons.

Morning Gang We have a sugar ant problem...I thought I had it under control but they were back in full force last night. Sigh. Need to head to town for a few groceries and sugar for the hummingbirds. Maybe a walk around the downtown too.

Morning BBB I got to sleep in a bit today. Then need to clean the house, the pigeon coup and do laundry. I think we can make it one more day without going to the grocery store. Fantastic hike !

We've been up at 4:30 for the last 3 days to help with the balloon Launch. I'm beat. We might go back tomorrow and get a ride. Making an early lunch then going to nap while watching the bike race.

Hi all We were up super early to make it tonthe Balloon launch it 5:30. Friend George volunteered to help so then got a free ride. Probably both guys will go back tomorrow morning. Stayed for the neighborhood parade. It was shirt and cute. Plan to head to town later for firework show. I can't believe they allow here. As a…

Morning gang Might Head to the borax visitor center this morning. Both visiting friends are working and both have several calls. New phone is great, but huge. I so far only imported Google and added a few bare necessity apps. I'm going to try not to bloat it up with junk. It's blazing fast. Case and screen protector…

Morning gang Hiked A bit yesterday and it's been a hot minute so my hips are screaming today. Need to get put and do something today. I have a new phone arriving this afternoon. Galaxy s25 ultra global edition. Can't wait to check out the camera. Friends are working away at the dining table, he plans to go fishing this…

Morning gang Ron was up early and took care of the morning pigeon chores. I should go check for eggs. Our friends are both working away at the dining room table and both have several calls so we will likely vacate the house after my coffee. They are on central time so began working several hours ago. I agree the house is…

Morning gang Here is a pigeon picture to start your day. Our friends are both working at the dining table today so I assume we will head out soon to give the m some privacy. Maybe go to the airfield and watch the glider planes. FFingers Crossed the new house contract goes thru. Just found out some countries are now…

Morning BBB I once referenced Crissy from threes company to my super young "juniors" department team. Blank looks all around. I agree Mary. Super loss. Bird Sitting is going great. We open the pigeon coup in the am, feed them and switch out water. At night we close up the coup and make sure they still have water. It takes…

Morning BBB It's the last cool day in california. I think we plan to go to the Loop overlook today. It's where the train loops around on itself to get over the mountain pass. Maybe the train museum too.

Morning BBB It's lovely in california. AC hasn't even run for 3 days. But will get hot later this week. We went to the 3 closest wineries yesterday. Enjoyable time but didn't buy a bottle of anything. Our friends are working from home today but on central time so finished early afternoon. Not sure of plans.

Morning Gang Our friends arrived yesterday. They are here 2 weeks but might take the weekend to drive to the coast.

Morning gang It's cool here today. Ron's in the hot tub. Off to the Mojave air port for the open house soon then our friends arrive this afternoon for the week. It's so nice of our hosts to allow us to have company. Big excitement yesterday was the 2-3 dozen condors flying overhead all afternoon

IIt's Chilly here in the mountains. Windows are open and I have on flannel (following the green acres theme) Might go jump in the hot tub after I get the deck flowers watered.

Hi all We had no power this morning either. Not sure why. Homeowners got on the road earlier than expected since the trailer didn't have shore power they decided to just get going. We are in charge of 3 dozen or so pigeons, 2 wild ravens, and a mess of hummingbirds. Plus keeping the mice out of the cars and shop. We have…

Morning BBB Our last night in a hotel for 2 months. I'm ready to slow down…changing hotels daily and eating in restaurants gets old. But we saw some beautiful country and we really like our subaru. One more adventure to the ancient bristlecone pine forest this morning then 3 hours to meet our petsit hosts.

Hi all We took the scenic route to Provo Utah. The roads were busy, close to metro, lovely summer day, Sunday and holiday. Should probably just taken the direct route through SLC. We had a lovely road trip but except for the 3 nights at my dad's we have stayed in a different place every night for the last 18 days. I'm…

Morning BBB Sending well wishes to Joanne (and you too...being the caretaker is hard) Montana is beautiful. I didn't take many photos as the are never as food as real life. Missoula is a town I could live in, if only for milder winters. Toured the mining museum in Butte this week. Heading to Idaho today. Going to stop at…

Morning BBB Mary a retail job would severely curtail weekend trips to the lake. Ron Realized yesterday that his tablet hasn't been receiving security updates since last fall. Yikes. So that is back in the budget. Both phones will also be replaced this year. That was already planned.

Morning gang Our Drive though the bighorn national park was lovely. Stopped at a brewery in Ten Sleep. Didn't make it back to Sheridan before the shops closed so we will do that this morning. There is an open house at a artist ranch we plan to visit today too. Then to Billings MT. We need to do a little shopping and I…
