Flying!!!

Jim met us at the airport to warm up the plane this morning. By nine thirty, we were in the air. Perhaps I should mention it was zero this morning...and -15 at Jim's. So the plane was cold. The air was cold and crisp flying, and the scenery was wonderful. Our mission was to fly over feedgrounds we hadn't been to...but over in the Wyoming Range, the air got rough. So we flew nearby..headed to Fandek's feedgrund, and over the ones in our part of the country. In spite of what the sno-tels say...we are NOT having an average winter for snowfall. Maybe average if you just average the last couple of years. I/we have spent a lot of time lately in the Retirement Center. Ruth's arrival prompted much more time there. I had been seeing a lot of Pat...but I spend long periods of time with Ruth. Keith Anderson moved in the other day...so that's another necessary visit.

Bridge at Erma's yesterday was fun...for me...I won high! Charm..you won second! So the interest is building on your money as we speak! Erma is keeping it for you!

For anyone not recognizing where this photo was taken, it's New Fork Lake looking up the canyon! My country!

Bob knew nothing of his nomination for this award. He was blown away. Earlier in the day Lynn presented one of her paintings to Marilyn (Mrs. Doc) Jensen who was voted Cattlewoman of the year. Lynn was so pleased. She later came out...we did a mini photo shoot, went through the motel that has all of my photos and later we all went to the banquet. She spent the night. Del was sooo glad to see her...it's cute!
A catchup on the last week, Bob's been plowing...finished that until it snows again, and has been spelling Jim flying the air quality guys. He loves that. Betty is much better...and is in Las Vegas with Brent on vacation. Have fun guys! I've been hanging low...cross country skiing, doing a little painting, doing some silver, and playing bridge.
