I looked out the window and this is what I saw---I got t-peed. I thought it was funny!
They appearently went up the street t-peeing at random. It is kinda funny. I remember many years ago being part of the t-peeing crew and loving every minute of it. So, I chuckled a little as I cleaned up the remenants. I thought you'd might laugh a little too. Happy Saturday, everybody!
I WON! Last night my school had a fundraiser, a spagetti feed and raffle of baskets, so I went. It was important that I go because I am a teacher at the school and they like it when we go to these events. We they had lots of baskets with different themes, as you can see from the picture the theme of this basket was game night. It was very exciting, because there were lots of really cool baskets themes. I bought some twenty dollars worth of tickets and got twenty four tickets. They had a wii, and an American Girl doll so I put the majority of my tickets in to those two baskets. I also put in for about eight other baskets, and this was one of them. It had Backgammon, Dominoes, Chutes and Ladders, Candyland, Memory, and some candy and pop corn. All very exciting! The really funny thing is that the crowd was really a small turn out and I thought my chances of getting the doll or the wii were very high but sadly no doll or wii, the doll when to another teacher at the school and the wii went to a young boy!
This donkey is Hershey, and he likes to play with toys especially balls. Here he is trying to impress Daisy with his new toy that Isabelle gave me to give him. Daisy of course could care less because she was busy eating the fresh green grasses out in the pasture.
Still trying to get her attention!
He decided to come over and show me his new toy.
"I know in my heart that man is good, that what is right will always eventually triumph and there is purpose and worth to each and every life!"
Here is President Reagan in Sacramento the day before he was reelected on November 6, 1984, at a rally on the west steps of the State Capitol! The school's wouldn't allow the student or even better the school bands to leave school and play for the president. Lovely little petty dictators at the schools. We showed them, we skipped school and went to see the President! That was one of my first lessons about how teachers and schools administrators have enfluence over there students.
This is a close up of the same event. Had to wait in line outside for a couple of hours to be funneled into the event, but it was worth it. The media had the country thinking that Reagan didn't have a chance, it in the end it was a blowout in Reagan's favor. Nobody can even remember who ran against him!
This is President Reagan toasting Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.
Here is President Reagan ride with the Queen of England!
I wish America was in good hands like were once were under President Reagan, you knew without question that he wanted the best for you and this great country and would defend it at all costs.
Here is the Microwave that tried to break my leg after I slipped and fell on the pile of decomposing fig leaves. I was only trying to avoid the steps because I couldn't see where I was going with this big heavy 30 year old microwave.
Here is my truck loaded up with all the e-waste from the ranch--3 tvs, 1 microwave, 1 printer, and 1 computer. After I got back home I added another heavy old microwave, monitor, and little tiny printer to the load. Yep, all this taken in to the free e-waste recycle day put on by the tv station. Thanks Channel 3, Love you, but PLEASE bring back DAVE AND LOIS!
I think I will go home and crash for a while! I have one question for the world to answer at this point in the game, why are all the old microwaves heavier that 27 inch tv? Was the weight to justify the ridiculous prices people paid for these things when they first came out. If you buy a microwave now there are a fraction of the size and the weight.
I set out to be the photographer and of course had to take a picture of myself.
As you can see the donkeys are all perplexed as to what is going on with the new resident on the property. They aren't ready to be friends just yet, but of course don't want to miss out on all the goings on around the place. Just a side note, I can't tell you how hard it is to get all the girl donkeys to face the same direction at the same time. It just takes a common interest in another animal.
I wanted to take a few pictures of her running around the place in full gallop. Here are a couple of shots of her doing just that. I think there is nothing more beautiful than a running horse, unless of course it is a running donkey.
I really love this next shot with the well in the back ground.
So next time you come up to the ranch don't forget to ask about Daisy! Make her feel welcome! Did I mention that she was a rescue animal, I don't know the full story but she was abused by somebody. I can't understand why anyone would abuse such a wonderful animal.
