Arthritic cats

This cold weather combined with our poor finances has our house a wee bit on the cold side lately. Both of my 20 year old cats have arthritis so they have been wandering around the house squawking quite a bit, even after I go to bed and before I get up in the morning. I know they are old and the cold doesn't feel good, but man, I'm tired! Then I thought about the hot water bottle. It last several hours and once they go to sleep they stay asleep even when the water cools. Of course, I'm also keeping a space heater in the bathroom on very low heat.
Don't they look comfy?! I wish I could relax that well!

Tumbleweed path

We had high winds yesterday. The tumbleweeds blew in.



When I fed this morning I couldn't figure out why the horses wouldn't come from the other end of the lane. They just kept circling in their leg of the maze. I thought Cinbar had finally lost it and couldn't find his way through. So I decided to walk down there. I actually had to move tumbleweeds out of the way and lead the horses through. I tried to get pictures of my path.

Devil's Canyon, UT



The rock formations and canyons along I70 in southeastern UT are just beautiful! We could have stopped every few miles to take pictures!

Teen angst




It's not all teenage angst!

Bountiful Harvest


We got 4 pints of corn and 19 quarts of green beans from the garden. We will enjoy them all year long (well, at least the green beans!).


Lovin' that concrete mixer! Now we have drains at the bottom of the rain gutter downspouts! Yay!
