Another Great Day






















The above pictures were taken while we were at our friends' Debbie and Mike's. Those are irrigation canals. They run through most of the farm ground around here. Farmers rotate which days they can open their gates to irrigate the fields. Today is your neighbor and tomorrow is your day. Nothing like the irrigation back in Missouri where the water is plentiful. Those are the mountains that surround us. I also took those from Mike and Debbie's just a few miles from where we stay here. We had a potluck at their home today. Our friends from the local church of Christ were all invited and several of us were there. It was a great fellowship.
After Teri and I got home we took the bed out of our bedroom and insulated all under and around it. We are hoping that helps us stay a bit warmer here during these cold nights. We are hoping that most of the freezing mornings are behind us. However, I ordered our own lp heater today so we can return our friend's. Hoping to save on lp fuel by using the little heater until bed time. We pretty much insulated everything except the ceiling and upper walls. We will do them in time to come. Got to get back to work on the kitchen first though. I can already feel the cool air when Teri opens the door. I suspect we are in for another cool one. Our 12 volt blanket was being turned on to warm the bed and we turned it off when we went to bed. Well, the last two nights it has stayed on all night long. Sure glad we bought it.
We hope everyone enjoys the photos of the mountains. They are much more pretty in person. Wish I had a panoramic camera so we could really show you how they surround us.
Have a good weekend. Thanks for coming by. Teri wants to go south one day next week and explore the mountain chain there. Can't think of the name but we will get lots of good pictures when we go. Dan
