We went road trippin’ last Sundaythrough Jackson Hole, DuBois, Ft. Washakie, Lander, South Pass and back home. Whew! It was a beautiful,
almost perfect day.

Saying Goodbye to Summer
19 Saturday Oct 2013
Tags
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! 😦

Dialing the Remote
14 Monday Oct 2013
Ah, the joys of growing older. I used to joke that we knew we’d arrived when we were offered senior discounts at restaurants without asking. We just laughed about it – now it’s not so funny.
Weird conversations due to our hearing don’t seem nearly as comical as they used to. The volume bar on our television is a mile long on the low side now and almost nothing on the loud. Having to find the phone via the locater is commonplace; trying to find what Continue reading
When Do You Plan to Retire? At the Age of 62? 82? How About 102?
09 Wednesday Oct 2013

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.

Ready or Not – Winter’s Coming

We went for a drive today but the colors weren’t quite as far along as we thought they would be. That’s okay. It gives us an excuse to go again next Sunday. It is so beautiful here,
and when you add the fall colors to the green and throw in a little snow it can be spectacular!

Rainy Days and Mondays, and Tuesday’s, and …

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
Josie Bassett Morris
30 Monday Sep 2013
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!

I’ve been sick for nearly a week with the stuff. Just had the stomach flu a month ago, so I’m ready to be done with it all. Maybe tomorrow…

Come Back Cataract
08 Sunday Sep 2013
Tags
I recently had cataract surgery. I kinda got the idea that I needed to do that when I kept tripping over the dogs. They objected to that rather strenuously. I mentioned to a friend of mine that I had a cataract and he replied, “Cadillac? I thought you had a Jeep.” Ah, the joys of growing old!
This surgery was Continue reading
