Who has a Great Sense of Humor?

I am on summer break and loving it. Getting up later, being with Bob and Izzy, and taking pictures. I was just looking at pictures I had taken of Pilgrim, and boy did that bring out the tears. I just miss that little sweet tart so much. I even miss his funny screeching/talking he did. I just miss him so much. It still hurts. I am so glad we have Izzy. She makes it a bit easier. We have just been lovin her like crazy the past two weeks.

Today we are suppose to have a bunch of baby chicks hatching. I am very excited to see them all cuddled up to their momma's. I just can't wait. If all goes well, there should be about 15-20 new chicks by tomorrow. :) Then we ordered more chicks to come in the mail. One breed we are getting is Cuckoo Marans. They lay a dark chocolate colored egg with speckles. It is fun to watch them grow and scratch the ground. I am so excited to see the new babies. Have I said that already?

This past weekend we went up to the ranch to see Bob's dad and step mom for Father's Day. Art is a hoot. He loves when I enter photo contests and really encourages me. Well 'his' latest "idea" was for me to take a picture of him up on the mountain sittin on an open outhouse reading a magazine. Soooooo we drove up to the area across from the ranch, and I took these pictures. We laughed and laughed. Remember it was all his idea. I will send the pictures to Fence Post Magazine tomorrow. He wants to see them in print and so do I. I love Art, and his sense of humor. He turns 70, June 23. He acts 40. I hope they get in the magazine.

I went to where I work today and visited the summer school kids. I got hugs and kisses from the kids, and got a few egg orders from teachers. The whole town was re-routed because there was an old lumber yard on fire. I guess it was an old building. I don't know any details... What a mess the traffic was. I met Bob in town and we got Japanese Food from MOMO's and went home. It was good stuff.

I have to get packing for my trip out east to humid/wet land. Brock told me he got new Transformer underwear and I should come see them. Oh boy. I am excited to just get there and see my family. With gas prices so high, I plan on not going a lot of places. I just want to enjoy my Brockstar.

Love and hugs, Gail...p.s. My friend Josh is out of IRAQ and home in NV. Yay, home safe and sound after serving our country. Welcome Home Josh!!!!!!!
