We have had 'dogs' in our lives for the last 17 or 18 years. Our big dog, Bailey, the Weimaraner, left us last July. Our one last dog, Chaco, the Dachshund is almost 17. He still goes outside, but with supervision. He waddles at best and is blind and deaf. The chain link panels had a purpose, but NOW they don't, they detracted from the beauty we see to the west out our back door. We no longer needed this fence around our back deck, so yesterday, we began removing it AND the snow drifts that are left there from the last snowstorm. We have a LOT of wind, up against the Sangre de Cristo mountains. This job is easier, as we have the equipment to do it (tractor, ATV plow and our plow on the Wagoneer), but still have to 'hand dig' the bottoms of the fencing out of the ice. It is supposed to be another nice day, we will get it done. I can handle these nicer days, even though the nights are still freezing cold.
Come on, Spring!
Yesterday - I dipped my brush back into the paint on the palette for this painting to fix the dark gray at the bottom of the cloud..it may still need a little more work.
