In 2006 we sold our home and art gallery in Evanston, WY. and moved to Star Valley. I came up here kicking and screaming – I did not want to leave Evanston. (Now I’d be kicking and screaming if Bob tried to move me from here!) We rented a house up the street while he built this one, almost by himself.

This is why 9/12 pitch and 100# snow load is required here. We’re happy to say goodbye to winter! Our driveway is now almost clear and most of the yard has a foot or less of snow left. We haven’t had it nearly as bad as some parts of the country, though. We moved in here April 21, 2007, and it snowed the day before, so we really can’t count on winter being over – I have seen it snow in Wyoming the middle of June! Seriously.
Local meteorologists say that we received 200 inches of snow this winter, 160 is usual, however, history shows that we received around 300″ in 2007/2008.
The deer have been hungry the past few months and have feasted on my bushes frequently, especially the Blue Willows. I hope they survive, but if they don’t that’s 
okay. We’re not allowed to feed them, so if my bushes are collateral damage that’s fine.

There really is a road somewhere in there. We weren’t getting much snow and then all of a sudden we got about four feet. It’s starting to melt now, but it sure is pretty in the middle of the night.

It was -25 when we went to breakfast with friends this morning. Up to -18 when we got home!

We have a couple of families of tree swallows that have taken up residency in bird houses in our back yard. They are such fun to watch. I think there is only one baby yet to leave the nests. He appears to be afraid if height. 🙂 Last year I saw one that would come out a little ways, look down at the ground and go back inside. Then he would repeat the action. I figured he was thinking it sure was a long ways down to the ground. I had to leave and by the time I got back he had apparently gathered his courage because he was gone. Of course, his parents and siblings were hanging out on a nearby branch chiding him for all they were worth. That was probably embarrassing. Looks like this one is going to follow suite.

We recently took a road trip to Cody, Wyoming to celebrate our 57th wedding anniversary. Heading down HWY 189/191 east from Hoback Junction toward Pinedale we came across this delightful little cafe in Bondurant. It is so cute, tastefully decorated inside, and thoughtfully arranged. The food is good and the staff is friendly. If you are traveling that way you won’t regret stopping in.

We tangled with a deer recently so my car has been in the shop while the fall colors were at their best. I did find a few at a golf course. Wyoming transitions fast (except for winter…), and this year it seemed like a switch was flipped: one day it was still summer – the
next day it was – not! 😦
