Do you think you would want to work until you are 102? I recently interviewed a gentleman that is doing just that. He is still healthy, agile, and sharp as a tack! Mr. Baker works every day, at least in the summer, since he is a surveyor and much of our land here is covered with 4-5 feet (or more) of snow through the winter months. Check out my article on pages 56-57 in Wyoming Lifestyle Magazine. http://www.wyolifestyle.com/Current%20Issue.html He is truly an inspiration.

While our children were growing up we often went backpacking in the Wind River Mountains near Riverton, Wyoming. It was something we all enjoyed doing. Bob continued the tradition with our grandson.

I recall a trip they took in 1997. Shelby was 15. It was during our vegetarian phase which I hadn’t completely bought into and Shelby certainly hadn’t. When they left I fixed myself a pot of ham and beans – something I felt was much tastier with meat than without.

They hiked back about eight miles Continue reading →

My husband, son, and grandson recently went on a camping trip to Dinosaur National Park near Vernal, Utah. I thought Josie’s story was interesting. Somewhere they read that she had been married and divorced five times! I guess she decided she’d had enough of that and established a home of her own. She lived to be 90!015

025We recently took a road trip through Yellowstone National Park, by Yellowstone Lake, and on through to Cody. It’s such a beautiful place! The raven let me know it was her territory, not mine. The elk was along side the highway. As always, photographers were everywhere creating traffic issues (me included). 🙂 That’s one reason it’s 45 mph going through the park. It’s worth the extra time.

My husband snapped this photo this morning to show how tall the hollyhocks have gotten. I am 5'10"- the hollyhocks are over 6'. I didn't know there were any that grew that tall! They are waning now (and I haven't been keeping up with the deadheading) but we're still enjoying them.
My husband also told me that he thought I looked pretty cute – for an old lady… Honesty – 100%. Tact 0%.

018We’re hanging on tight to every minute we have with the little hummers. We’ve probably gotten up to 35-40 now and they really come out to play toward dusk. They like to perch on the hollyhocks or a thorny little tree in the back yard. I don’t know what they like that mean one, but they do. They’ll probably Continue reading →
