Visitors on Horseback

Kristi and daughter Camey were riding "the 78.3" today. It was a beautiful day to do it. The gully whomper we had last night made for a mist rising in early morning hours and it got warmish this afternoon. Kristi said the river was very high. This was no small storm-the ground is still damp.

I tricked the dogs about noon and left them to nap after they came back from the swamp wet and filthy. I had lots to do in town and they would have been too hot. I worked my list: Vet, Walgreen's pharmacy, Traihead for lunch (needed veggies), Wally World, K-Mart, Casino, It looks like the whole town is going to take the long weekend for the 4th of July. Business is either very good or very bad. There won't be much doing in Riverton but I will be in Casper anyway. I know I make getting ready to go harder than it is-but I don't seem to be able to help myself. By the time I am ready to go I feel like staying home. Bought a big plastic container for the music equipment. Then I had to lift it into the van. It is a pipe dream to think of taking it to Florida. Maybe I will get a similar setup down there. We'll see how this dance goes. If it goes 7th grade on me, this may be the shortest DJ career in history. But fun awaits. I am not responsible for other people's happiness. Mine is a big enough job.

Delores and I had been playing telephone tag and finally connected for a good long chat. It is good to have somebody the same age to compare notes with. We do laugh. It would appear becoming a curmudgeon is a developmental task.
