More fun with the grandkids

Since we had Charley and Cody last Thursday and Friday, we picked up Cameron and Chase on Saturday and had them with us until Monday. We had a nice time showing them around the KOA, but on Sunday we went back to Fort McAllister. I wanted to go to Forsyth Park with them, but it was CRAZY time in Savannah because of St. Patrick's Day. We didn't tour the fort but let them play on the playground which also had an exercise area. They had a good time, then we had an early dinner, played Baby Yoda Operation, and then watched The Mandalorian. It was a nice day.

Before we took the boys back, we had to take a picture with them. Time is so precious, and I am glad we have been able to make memories.

I wish I had as much energy as the boys, I try to keep up with them. I dropped them off on Monday and then got the tour of where they live. They have chickens, pigs, donkeys and goat.

On the farm.

Tara and her family have been having a hard time with coyotes. So, some of the animals have been casualties. Fun fact: The coyotes in Georgia have 30 percent DNA of wolf in them. They are sneaky and very smart. They have been named coywolves and while they are still shy around humans, they aren't to be trusted.

They sort of look pretty, but are very aggressive.

Being a grandparent is truly amazing. I was excited that I could attend their Fun Run Fundraiser while being here. This was at the elementary school, so I was able to see Cody, Cameron and Chase. Tara and I took lunch to Charley, he is in 8th grade. We couldn’t see him, but the food smelled amazing in the car, so I am sure he enjoyed it.

Every lap Chase made sure we were still there watching him.

So, on our way to the school we had to go on a dirt road. It is a shorter route. One that I never want to go on again. It had been raining the past two days and this road made me nervous. I could feel the truck sliding a little bit. I am so thankful for four-wheel drive. I turned it on, only drove about 20 miles per hour and boy oh boy did the truck get dirty. Hubby and I went to the car wash, and it was no easy feat for hubby to wash all that dirt off. And if I am being honest, it was a little pricy as well. Twenty dollars later and the mud was basically off.


"He answered, "The Man who is called Jesus made clay, and anointed my eyes,
 and said to me, 'Go to Siloam and wash'; so I went away and washed and I received sight."" John 9:11 (NASB) 

Saturday, we picked up the boys and went to a movie. We had a great time. Later, today, we will go site seeing with some friends that we met in Las Cruses last October. I will share more about that next time.

Hubby, Charley, Cody, Chase and Cameron.

Buffalograss Who Knew?

What a week it has been, hot is the word for it. Actually, the tee-ball game last Thursday was moved from 6:30pm to 7:30pm and I was so glad about that. It cooled down to 96 degrees and that made it so much better. The weather also gives us beautiful skies.  These dark and mysterious clouds did not produce rain for us. I just love the way they look. Another picture of the moon. Monday was laundry day and that felt good to knock it out in one day. Funny, my washer/dryer takes 2 and a half hours for one little load, going into the house, I can knock laundry in a lot less time than that. Don't get me wrong, I love my washer/dryer. It was over three years ago we got this, so love being able to  wash in the RV verses a laundry mat. "Keeping it real" Tuesday was a gut-wrenching day, I woke up to find out one of my best friend's daughter has passed away. She found out she had cancer in 2020 and battled through that and even got to ring the bell, not only to find out later th

A Labor of Love

Working on the ranch is truly a blessing. I enjoy mowing and now that we have a new weed sprayer, I enjoy riding around on the Polaris spraying the paths to the feeders and deer stands. This was just water, needed to do that first to make sure all the sprayers worked. Tuesday, we went to Kirsten's house so hubby could see her deck and new chicken coop. She lives at a higher elevation than we do. I was able to take this picture of the sunsetting. So beautiful. Isn't God so creative! We have Mesquite trees around here, fun fact: they are not native to this area. They are a nuisance, and they have thorns. What they have that is good is pods and the deer like to eat them. I am trying to get the grass to grow more, I have a few mesquites that will be take out. I don't like the "messy" look, so trying to get this area looking better, of course with hubby's help. Can you see the pods? So, we have blink cameras and a game camera out and about the house, RV and by the

The Past Two Weeks

I'm back, so sorry about missing a post last week, this week I made sure to get one ready for you. This is officially my 181-blog post and I appreciate you joining in for the journey. We have been busy here in Iraan. We go into town almost every day just to dump trash, we also have driven to Fort Stockton, Ozona and Big Lake. Let me first put up some pictures from January 14th through the 20th. It was full of family, and it was frozen. Here is the family for our January Christmas. In the back are Stef, Robert, Connie and hubby.  In the front are my dad and Baine. Can you see Baine? Little icicles hanging off the cover. There is an icicle on the truck tire. Frozen winter wonderland. It was chilly out there, that is for sure, but we enjoyed being together and celebrating with each other. What a difference a week makes. It has thawed out and we are reaching nearly 70 degrees. As I am writing this it is currently 64 and should hit 67. Some days it seems as though I have to wear two dif
