Overnight at the mountain

By -
I spent last evening/night at the mountain.  Last fall, a big dead pine tree had fallen over the deck but was caught in the tree in front of our trailer.  Two weekends ago I pulled it down with the jeep but it was laying on the winterized deck and there was another dead pine tree ready to fall.  Last night I cut down the other tree, cut them up into managable lengths, stacked them by the side of the road, and was able to mostly put the deck back together again.   It got dark before I was able to finish cleaning up and putting out the picnic tables though.  I can do that on the next trip up.   It's really pretty up there...everything is green yet the weeds haven't grown up tall and ugly yet. A single wild turkey wandered through while I was there (I could tell he was single because he wasn't wearing a ring.)

(I'll bet there are some 70 year olds who don't know as much as she does at age 2). Lydia has been enjoying a few firsts lately. We gave her rice cereal last night for the first time which she was apparently more than ready for (see video), we've put her in a doorway jumper which she likes although she hasn't figured out the jumping part yet. Oh, and for those of you who have been to NM lately, you'll appriciate this: Steve and I plan on applying to a government program that is somewhat like the military in that they pay for your schooling; but instead of steve being in a branch of the military, he will owe the government years of his life serving in one of th...
