Green is an usual color at the ranch, at least on the ground. But this year we have green grass in all directions. The cows are happy. Five calves were born this season on our ranch. One little guy was just born yesterday. We don't yet know how many bull calves have been born but usually we send the bull calves to auction. Steve came by this evening just to say hello and said that someone wants to buy some of the heifer calves, so we must think about that. But the trees are green and full and the whole place looks lovely.
We always forget how much we like the Top House until we return and walk around inside patting ourselves on the back. The house is so livable while also gracious and elegant. What makes the place special are the views. With balconies on both front and back and on both stories, we can see for miles in all directions. The sight is glorious.
Today we had no trouble getting here. I drove to Harper and after stopping at the post office, where our box was stuffed, and then the little grocery store for milk and gas, Ken drove the rest of the way to the ranch. So we did well. I was not sure that we would be able to commence our old pattern of coming for a short time then going to the lake, but I think we will be fine. I hope so because we go to the lake for the weekend with the Texas Family. And Marilyn and Tuppin are coming on Saturday. But for now, we will enjoy the ranch.
