Another day, another nickle #15: When it's Spring Time in the Rockies(actually the Wolf Mountains)

Tom,

It is good to hear from you and that you are getting all settled in and ready for the summer push. Sounds like you are doing well and having a good time.

Sounds like your having a blast Tom! Good to hear from you, take care!

I thought about calling you and seeing how things were going.

Rita’s family got stuck up in Billings a couple of times and could not get back to Sheridan. It always seems to hit the hardest starting about 60 miles east of Billings.

Look forward to tales from the ranch.

Thos: great to hear from you. Glad that parts of the job are falling into place. Or is it falling all over the place.

Come back Ya All. Ya Hear.

Thomas, I just went back and read all your blog articles, was very delightful. I hope you understand what a treasure you are creating for your family, both immediate and extended. My wonderful wife does a lot of geneology work and once in a while she will come across a journal, or some interesting letters, it seems they always are most interesting when they include such personal entries as you have included in yours. I especially liked the one about the dance. Seems as we grow older we see things with different eyes.

You and your lady have that wonderful ability to “do what you must do” to “go on”. We are blessed to know you if only in a small way, and I don’t mean a small blessing.

Keep on blogging—I think you’ve got it. I like Todd’s title ”Tales From the Ranch”

Our neighbor just moved his cattle on to our pasture and the baby calves are being baby calves. Almost enough to make me want to quit eating meat.

One door closed and a great big window has opened. I couldn’t be more pleased for you, Tom.

Dennis, maybe just give up veal?

Hi Thomas

Good to here from you. Glad you and the wife made it there safely. Went on the internet and saw the ranch (Very Impressive!). It sounds like you have made the right move.

God Bless

Glad to see you are still hanging around here Thos.. Despite the bummer of the lack of accessibility to your tools, you seem very happy there.

We are looking forward to read more of those—aptly named by Todd—Tales From The Ranch.

Take care and enjoy life, ater all is way too short to spend it lamenting like some do.

Best wish from us.

I’d love to see any and all of the projects/barn/general area you post. Don’t hesitate!

Good to hear all is well Tom. I bet you can’t wait till summer has arrived.

Tom, Glad to hear from you and I too will look forward to those tales and any projects you post. Sounds like you are settling in and should be ready to go by the time those tourists get there.
