As Our Glaciers Recede

I did a bit of ranch patrolling yesterday, soaking up a little vitamin D from sunshine, and discovered a souvenir from the record-snowfall winter we had. Snow and gravity seem to have had their way with several sections of the pasture's board fence. I guess we'll be going to the lumberyard before turning any horses out for the season.

Naturally, the fence-busting drift didn't land on the section of fence that needs repair and painting anyway. Nope--it had to take out a part of the section that was fixed and facelifted just last fall.

Winter is a lot of things, but "fair" isn't one of them!

Juli, your name sounds VERY familiar to me. Do you know Lela Dillworth? Did you use to live in Lodi, CA? Do you know Julie Taylor?

Isn't that the way it always goes? Murphy's Law, I guess!

Hi, Janine,
Sorry, "no" to all your questions.

Maybe you've read some of my magazine articles, which I've been writing for longer than I care to admit!
