Ringin' in the New Year

I know...I've started the new year as a really bad blogger.  I think I'm beginning to take after my daughters.

Let me share how I started the New Year.

Irv was working on New Year's Eve so Mary and Mr. Beans invited me over for dinner.  What a special treat.

We started with a little bubbly...

A nice light Moscato d' Asti for the old people and some Welch's Sparkling for the young man.

A little cheers to the new year!
 
 
This was followed by some enchiladas which were delicious!
 
Bella even got out from underneath the covers for a little while.
 
 
There's nothing better than spending time with my daughters and my very favorite grandson.  Thanks for a nice evening Mary, Mr. Beans, and Bella!
 
 
Happy New Year Everyone!
 
(BTW Mr. Beans...it's time to retire that shirt for the year.  Go Broncos!)

It looks like a fine time was had by all.

Go Broncos! They are fun to watch except when they don't have the ball.

I'm taking it game by game with Dallas. They get to play Green Bay at Lambeau field.

Skywatch Friday: A little close for comfort

Image
We had a fire out here on the eastern plains of Colorado last week.  I kept getting reports on the fire's location on my cell phone while I was at work.  Then a warning popped up that let me know it was time to hit the road and go home to prepare to evacuate the critters. When we initially got home it was still a decent distance away. Within 30 minutes it had come up over the ridge and flames were visible. The winds were gusting 45 to 50 mph.  It was a fast moving fire that burned 5,000 acres in only four hours.  Then the most amazing thing happened--the winds died down and the firefighters got in under control by 8:15 that night.  Thank you, Lord! Have you ever had to stand in your house and wonder what you should take out with you?  There were only two things I could think of...1) my critters and 2) my passport so I could still go to Europe next month.  Irv and I agreed that we need to get things organized so we can just grab a box...

Skywatch Friday: Upper and Lower Falls

Image
Yesterday I got to visit the recently completed Uncle Tom's Overlook along the Yellowstone River in Yellowstone National Park. This is the first really good look I've ever had at the Upper Falls of the Yellowstone River. These falls are almost as good as the Lower Falls. After leaving the Upper Falls you go downstream for a mile or so to.... ...Artist's Point which has the very best view of the Lower Falls (in my opinion).  In this location the view is perfect, so perfect that it look like a painting. This is just one of the features of this Park that make it my heart and soul.   Linking with Skywatch Friday

Skywatch Friday: Wild Horses!

Image
 The Salt River wild horses have been eluding us since we arrived in Arizona several weeks ago so today we went in search of them again. This time we started at the Coon Bluff Recreation Area.  First we went one way down the river, but soon had to turn back because we didn't bring any rock climbing gear. Then we turned around and went the other direction. The water in the river was crystal clear, but no sign of fish or horses. There are times when I really miss my dad especially when I want to know what kind of tree I'm looking at.  This one has something that resembles Spanish moss hanging down.  What is it? This riparian area that surrounds the river has all kinds of wildlife.  Today we saw theses white egrets. This gray heron was also hanging out in the distance. We met a guy carrying all kinds of photographic equipment and he said we needed to go about a quarter of a mile further down the river to find a spot where the horses cross every afternoon around 5:0...
