Up early this morning to see Rusty off on a two day adventure checking trails with John... Rusty has never spent much time on a horse so this will test his balance and hanging on skills!!!
I spent most of yesterday with the "write group" as we drove the north highway to Flora, enjoying the scenery and wildlife along the way...we spent the day sharing stories and lunch at Cathy Putnams' secluded home nestled among the trees..
In the early 80's her husband Dan bought this property and started a tree farm...During the winter months Dan lives and teaches, coming home for long weekends, at the Idaho school for the Blind in Lewiston, Idaho...Cathy spends the winter in this cold, snowy country with her cats and chickens for company...Last winter while shooing an aggressive rooster off of the porch, she fell and broke her shoulder...She has just had a partial shoulder replacement and will spend most of the summer recuperating...It was a lovely day spent in a beautiful setting with friends.
I arrived home and joined Herb in the sunshine on our deck!..a first for this season...We read and enjoyed the warmth until late in the evening...We had a late dinner of roast pork, gravy, mashed potatoes and salad when Rusty got home about 7pm..Words not coming easy today, maybe more later...OWAV:)
