Just a day but a milestone too Feb 20, 2010


Today is my youngest daughter's 21st Birthday, it is strange to not be with her. I miss her terribly and am so very very proud of her as a human being, I am proud of all 3 of my children, all productive members of society with beautiful hearts.

But life in Ten Sleep continues and the snow has piled up at the North Fork where we work taking care of the buildings and grounds at the most incredible Ranch, here on to be known as just the ranch. Bill plows with the tractor and I shovel - for hours - there are decks around 2 of the buildings, 3 bridges, and paver lined walk ways that must all be done by hand, the physical push is mentally exhilarating for me, I didn't want to stop but we will go back again tomorrow and finish.

On the way back home to our little rental in Ten Sleep, we saw this group of antelope, they are very plentiful out here so I seldom photograph them, but today, they begged to be included in my collection so here they are.

I will finish my story from earlier another day, today wanted to share this photo and express my gratitude for wonderful children, a life lived in a place of incredible beauty and my husband who tolerates me and loves me beyond explanation.

Love has new definition for me in this stage in my life, Bill has taught me new depths of love and devotion, I did not know I could feel this way but am thrilled I do.
