Rose got on a kick of buying my quilts for the grandsons. Then she blesses me with a picture of them with their quilt. |
Here is Erik with his Native Horse quilt. |
KCF church campout weekend. Tyler & Sharee came in for a visit! | Drake was super helpful with the corn hole bags! |
This is why I'd like a bigger bed in the camper, these two use it all up! | Sunset songs around where the campfire would be if there weren't restrictions in place. |
Frannie, she's sweet but still a pup so she had too much energy for Buddy. Here he sits in my lap to escape her. |
She had a wonderful time in the dust and with all the people. |
Sunset over beautiful Lake Koocanusa. |
|
Eric keeps Drake laughing by making funny faces. They are buds. | |
Montana Shakespeare in the Park with our friend Michael. | There's always a big turn out for this annual event. |
We got spots right beside the Eashes so Eric could pester Drake. | The steers being moved from the ranch back to our land. |
Stryker dog! He is such a happy guy. Jeb & Amy were
gone so we did a welfare check on the dogs. |
Carson & Buddy are actually friends, despite how it looks in this side-eye picture. |
We attended a lovely fundraising event at the Timbers for Nazina
NGO. It's for a local girl who now lives in Uganda and runs a school there. They have a huge family and they are very talented musically, it was great. |
Our friend Laura took this photo of us at the event. |
Rose hosted a family dinner at the ranch when Cody Casazza was in town for a visit. | Of course I got pictures of everyone but Cody, well, this gets the back of his head. |
|
On a field trip to see our friend Jane's new studio. Opens in 2025! |
Buddy helping me photograph a baby quilt I made for my Mom's best
friend. Dana was getting her first grandbaby so I tried to make it a special quilt. |
Lincoln County Fair time! The food court is always the gathering place for this big social event. |
Saturday night at the fair started with checking on my quilt entries.
This one on the table beside me won a blue ribbon! |
This one got 3rd place against stiff competition. |
The main attraction - The Bull Thing! It's the biggest event in Eureka, a PBR televised event. | I believe they said the crowd was over 5,000 people. I think that's
more than the population of Lincoln County! We get a LOT of visitors from Canada and the Flathead Valley for this. |
Lily wants to cuddle SO much, but the other pets do not like her
closeness. At all.
She only likes to cuddle with Eric and I when we sleep. |
A lovely evening spent at Larry's house. Dinner followed by watching the
sunset over a fire on his all-season porch. |
Speaking of Larry's house, there it is with some August snow in the mountains above. |
|
Our trail camera didn't get any bears since April, but I like this picture of an owl. We love our owls. |
|
Mostly we got about 849 pictures of this guy. | |
On a whim, I sent Tripp's quilt to the Cherokee Nation Holiday Quilt
Show. Desirae & Mom went to look at it. |
It won a ribbon for "furthest traveled". Now it's at it's
new home with the wonderful Dana. |
