Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!

[abcowboy]

Wow, that's a nice bull elk Ginger! From the looks of the sidehill and terrain they had their work cut out for them getting it out. Nothing better than grilled elk steaks!

Yep, I'm guessing you'll be napping today for sure Rava by the looks of the time you were up. I don't like waking up early and just laying in bed letting my mind overthink things either, so I'd probably gotten up as well.

I'll bet you were the proud grandma watching your granddaughter sing in the choir dill.

I'm probably cross posting with Jude right now lol.

I texted Adam to see if he would send me some pics of the drywalling and then I'll post them as soon as I get them.

[Jude58]

Wow Rava, that's a switch! I actually slept in today until six and you were up for a few hours already. Hope that you can get a nap in sometime today.

Ginger, congrats to your grandson on taking his first moose, What a beauty!

Dill, when Mr. J's daughter was in high school she played the viola in the orchestra. We went to many of the concerts, but I especially enjoyed the ones at Christmas.

Mr. J and I haven't been on vacation together in years because of the animals. I won't put them in a kennel as it would really stress them out and the cost of boarding has gone way up.

Waves to cowboy and Mul!

24 more please...

[Jude58]

Yup cowboy, cross post!

[Ginger999]

ABC, I'm pretty sure his dad and uncle were just as excited about that elk as he was. That is until they had to get it out! They called another friend and by the time he got there they had it dressed and ready. The four of them got it out. Crazy!

Rava, was something on your mind? Airports perhaps?

Hi Dill, Jude, Mul.

I'll take another day of freedom!

[dill]

Ginger, that was some prize! I bet your grandson is walking on air after that. Impressive!

It sounds like I'm not the only one that has a hard time putting pets in a boarding kennel! We used to have a neighbor that could come over and see to the animals, but that neighbor died some time back. And we have had arrangements with people over the years to come and stay at the house and see to the pets, but none of those folks are around here now. We could ask our son but I think he has enough on his plate at the moment. We'll see. Maybe this winter we'll arrange a short trip.

24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.

[Jude58]

Good morning everyone!

It's a cool and rainy outside but that's ok, my little house is dry and warm. Just another thing to be grateful for. Not much happening around here which is probably a good thing!

Here's to another 24 hours of peace...

[dill]

Jude, nothing like a quiet day with no commitments to put a smile on your face! I have the same thing here today. Mr. D has started a project to fix the barn doors. The fellow that we had come out and give us an estimate said he would do it and would get back to us with an estimate, but he never did. I think he may get around to it one day, but we don't want to wait and see. We would like to be able to close our barn. So, he is going to the hardware store to get supplies for the project, and I am going to ride along and pick up a few things at the grocery which is in the same shopping center. Nice easy day.

We had a hard frost overnight. Mr. D covered up his tomatoes and peppers, so we shall see.

Rava, it's so sad that dogs can't talk. The last time I took Lily to the vet she was obviously very frightened that I might leave her there (like the like the time when she had to have that tooth pulled). She was SO happy that we left the Vet's office together!

Cowboy, has the weather improved enough to get going on the waterer?

Ginger, do you think you will eat some of the Elk? Have you ever? I have had deer meat and bison, but never Elk.

24 more for all of us here please and thank you.

5:23am in Alberta, another 24 for me please, and thanks...

Enjoy your day inside Jude, any crafting or reading you'll be doing?

Funny you mentioned it dill, I am headed out this morning to get the waterer set in place and connected. We first have to get the new power pole installed, then do the rest. Hopefully Mr D can get the barn doors repaired and his tomatoes and peppers survived the frost.

Waves to Rava and Ginger...

Adam said he did take a bunch of pictures and he'll send some over to me today. I'll get them uploaded and ready to post tomorrow.

[Rava]

Good morning Cafe. Hope everyone has a Good Friday. Slept in this morning. So I guess I am back to normal. 24 more please and thank you.

[Ginger999]

Hi all!

Dill, I've eaten all the game available around these parts, back in the day. I eat zero meat now so won't be trying it. Elk is the best tasting, as I recall. Well, in my opinion. It sounds like we all consider our pets too much like family to put them in a kennel. I hope the barn door project is a success. I'm sure it will be!

ABC, here's to a successful tank heater install! I'm sure you'll make quick work of it.

Jude, enjoy your quiet day. I started a new diamond art project. I hoping to do it as we travel south.

Rava, do you have one last gathering with your family before you head out? If so, enjoy!

I'll take another day!
