ENTRY # SEVENTEEN HUNDRED & EIGHTY FIVE.

Good Morning.
.
Mary and I did make the visit to Laura's Llama farm on Saturday. As you can see I made a few new friends up there.

.

This Llama was so friendly( I am sorry I forget his name.) they love raw carrots and Laura let me feed them. I have a picture of it that I will show you later.
.
This Llama above is one of the Llamas that will make your hike a pleasure. All you have to do is walk along and enjoy the beautiful views. I am going to slip in a link right here that will let you find out more--

(when this page comes up you will see a list on the left side, The first one is Home, click on that and you will see Laura and Lucy picture.)
.
Lara and Lucy will be glad to talk to you, and they will treat you nice. If they don't you just let Dad know.
.
I haven't begun to tell you enough about our pleasant visit with Laura and all those llamas. We had a wonderful time. Laura and David had a cook-out, and we sure did enjoy our time with them and others there. They had a wonderful meal-hamburgers and chicken cooked on the outdoor grill; potato salad, pasta salad, fresh green beans, home grown tomatoes, watermelon, many other delicious dishes and many desserts -including cookies, cakes, and brownies. Most of all we enjoyed being with our friends and we appreciate Laura and David for inviting us.

I need to explain the link above, it is a link that I use for interesting things that come in that may be to long for my regular blog, and I may want to show them that day. You may find some interesting things here. This link will always be in the side panel.DAD.
.

The tomatoes are beginning to ripen and it makes me think that all the work that we have done this spring and Sumner was worthwhile. Smile. DAD.

We have not been to Sara's Dog Training in a few days, so we must go there today. Sara we enjoy watching you train your Shelties, and we admire you very much. I wish that I lived close enough come to see you at work. DAD.
.
This would be a good time to check the two tomato growing seasons, 2008 and 2009. Let me know which one you think is the best. Here below are the two links to view them. Be sure and use the slide show. DAD.

Here below is my thought for this Monday morning.
.
"Time is so precious-do not waste it."
.
I feel like that I waste so much of my time thinking about old Dad, and not thinking of others.

.

We did have a little much needed rain last night, and maybe a little more this morning. here is what AOL says about our hopes for today. The tempeature is 69 at 4 a.m.

.
Showers and a possible thunderstorm during the morning will give way to partly cloudy skies this afternoon. High 86F. Winds NNE at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 60%.

.

This is enough for today. I hope to see you again in the early morning, and I will have a good hot cup of tea or coffee waiting on you. I won't promise a smile right now, but I will do the best I can. I hope that your day will be a good one, and that we all can be content and happy with the place that God has given us. And just be thankful for another day of life that we have been given.
