Well it seems that little progress has been made on the Ranch. We have decided on the name Hidden Owl Ranch, in honor of the owls that are in the area. We spent some time and money on patching the roof and rebuilding the part over the front door, with some improvement but it still leaks. Windows are in the kitchen, one in Michael's room and one in the Master bathroom. The boys installed a lot of drywall in the kitchen and living room ceiling. We are still running the house off of the temporary generator, so no water pump, hot water or washing machine. (Note to those I'm working with Monday night, can I come home with someone and do laundry on Tuesday AM?). Hopefully we will have the temp kitchen installed before Christmas. The burnt out mobile home on thelot diagonal to ours has been removed, not sure why or by whom but it sure does improve the neighborhood and the view from communication rock. Lots of rain lately but no quick sand yet. Our horse Snip aka Stinky is home from being boarded during the move, Treasure had to be euthanized on Thanksgiving, so he is very lonely, wet horse these days. My wish for Christmas is for another horse, a puppy and some barn cats. (Shelley)
I'm off for 3 weeks from teaching, but there's no money for projects. Hopefully, we have enough material on the ranch to accomplish some tasks, though. We must, must, must get the permanent generator going or Shelley's gonna kill somebody. I love the girl, I don't want to see her jailed. Sorry for not blogging more; we've had some internet access problems... still. (Steve)
