Last Friday was my husband's birthday, so we had a few people coming over for tacos out on the deck. I was trying to get everything propped on time (doing the usual headless chicken routine) after work, when a "strange" truck pulled into the drive. As I was trying to puzzle out who would be here 1-1/2 hours early and why does that look like Mom & Bill's truck/dog, one of the girls yelled "Gramma Gale and Grampa Bill are here." Apparently Ron has known about the visit for the last month and kept it a secret from the rest of the family.
We had 19 here for Ron's birthday dinner, and I think everyone had a good time.
On Saturday we all went out to our friend's bison farm for a visit. In addition to the bison herd, they have a couple of pet pot-bellied pigs and two water buffalo calves (who are also pets).
On Monday morning we built a fence around the front yard. I am hoping the deer will choose "easier pickins" than our yard now.
After the morning's work, we made the circuit of three different waterfall/swimming hole sites near here.
Mom and Bill went home this morning, then Eliie and I went for a walk at
Paradise meadows for a couple of hours.
It was really beautiful and there were a bunch of
ripe wild blueberries for me to snack on

Hey Maggie.....nice to see some of your pictures! Looks like you're keeping busy and having lots of fun! Keep us posted about Adam!
What an awesome surprise that must have been to see your mom and dad pull up! Sounds like Ron had a wonderful birthday celebration. The waterfalls are beautiful! I love how where you and Ron live, nature surrounds you. I can't get over how the bird is eating out of your daughter's hand! You wouldn't see that here that's for sure.
