WFA Training and my Last Day Off




It's been raining pretty steady up here since I arrived. I'm psyched that my new tent is holding up and that we'll have a green summer, but dang if I'm not getting a little tired of the rain. There was a picture in the paper showing two cities--one grey and rainy, the other sunny and clear--and asked which one was Seattle and which was Denver. The sunny city was Seattle, the grey one Denver.












The rain has made WFA training interesting, although more scenarios would have been nice. Saturday brought some bott-scooting to the local bluegrass band "Missed the Boat". I use "bluegrass" pretty lightly, but they were good and we danced well into the night.

















Sunday is my last day off until July. I slept in (until 8:30, woo-hoo!) and treated myslef to a big old pancake, eggs, hashbrown, biscuits and gravy, and coffe breakfast. There was a sign at the cafe offering a reward for a lost horse. The picture showed the horse saddled-up, which makes me wonder how the person lost his horse. Hopefully all is well and right with the world and Buddy will saunter on home. Afterwards I headed up into the hills just outside of town. They ain't joking when they say "Mud Season". I'm thinking of some hot springs to end the day with and then tomorrow will bring the season and hard-work.

  1. I'm glad to hear you had a lovely day off, diner breakfast is extremely important when one is camping or long stretches.
    your photos are all so lovely, I'm glad you found a way to share them.
    enjoy the mountains for me!
