When our work in Colorado is done, we are required to head north and west to Oregon. We were there in August to get the dents taken out of the outside cabinet doors. They told us we could not get the dents taken out; we had to replace the doors. There was nothing they could do until they got the new doors. The doors were ordered in August, constructed in September, and shipped to Oregon in October. Here is where Judy stepped in. Judy does not want to go north and west in December. It’s cold here. It’s colder north. She’s ready to go south. She made some calls. She located a qualified, recommended, repair facility in Mesa, Arizona. The shop in Oregon has transferred the estimates and insurance claim information. The replacement cabinet doors have been forwarded to Arizona. When our work in Colorado is done, we’re heading south and west. December in the desert.
Life on the road
This is what life on the road looks like.
Taylor
Taylor got air! She has been riding every week, working her way up to jumping, getting the technique and balance worked out. You have to get permission from the instructors to jump. Months of preparation, and she was deemed ready. She got air. Well, the horse underneath her got air and she got to go with it. She got a horse off the ground. She said it felt great and can hardly wait to do it again. We don’t have any pictures of her and her horse in the air yet. We’ll see if we can get a shot next Tuesday.
Birds
The elusive (for us) juniper titmouse. Got a great view of him on the hogback trail at Lathrop; a nice long look and listen.
Life on the road
It’s important to learn how to lose oneself in the moment.
Lucky for us, we have Annie’s guidance.
