Fencing Status

Hello All,

 Just a quick up-date on where the fence issue is.

 I did not hear to the contrary, so why don't we plan on T-Posts 18 feet apart, Smooth Wire, 4 wires horizontal, w the bottom wire 18 inches above the ground to facilitate elk calves ingress and egress w/o harm. OK?

 Second: Jim Younger is putting together a proposal through his company to see if he can be competitive...Yea! That will be forthcoming I do believe. Then I will simply put out the known costs involved, the $$ we have with which to work, and go from there. I do not think we have enough for the full project, so maybe we should buy the materiel, then work on it in pieces. The alternatives include increasing a temporary dues increase vs "special assessment" and I think I join the most of you, uh, no.

  I haven't been able to get up there for some time, it seems. I've had a rather unusual work schedule this summer, and, as most of you know, my land-lady unceremoniouslyl kicked me out in the street so I've had to move. Luckily I found a relative safe place so stability has increased somewhat. I do hear that for those who are lucky enough to enjoy that beautiful country the weather has improved and there is that "chill" in the air finally that implies a beautiful fall.

 See you later, and I don't think there is any other news. If there is, don't forget, anyone can publish a post (including a photo if you want), by writing to : rcdickson.autie@blogger.com.

Happy Labor Day!

A little horse trip into the back country.

John Wayne Ranch tour

A few of us visited the 26-Bar Ranch, once owned and frequented by The Duke here in Springerville. I'm holding the rifle he used in Rooster Cogburn, and the saddle its the one used in The Shootist. Many other very interesting artifacts and stories there as well. You're is free, very well worth the visit!

Up-Dates

Greetings from the Ranch; Been up here a few days now! #1. I do believe I am still allowed to come to the wedding after all! Yay! Getting closer and closer!! #2. I thought I would share a breakfast recipe. If you are ever in a bind for some good breakfast, try this: One left over pizza slice, poach an egg in a pan of water about 1" deep (put some either white vinegar, apple cider, or coca cola in to help the egg white stay together), and put in a moderately fresh egg. Microwave the pizza slice, put the egg on top, and add Mexican style chile beans. Yum!! The beans are optional.. #3. Weather has been nice up here, cooling off nicely. I have had nice afternoon rain showers. The nights are cool, but only up to about a 1/2-dog night. Still, Campfire time in the mountains! It is so green up here and I've been busy mowing, weeding, spraying, and trying to accomplish some rodent/pest control.. #4. Having trouble with rodents up here. I still have about 4 squirrels making a total mess of the barn (putting horse manure, alfalfa, nuts, bolts, various electical connectors) even in the ATV. Found a rope end down stairs, only stayed connected to the upstairs railing since it was tied. I figure the racoons would have untied it but squirrels can't figure that out yet. And then there's the mice. I've tried traps of various ilk and even resorted to mouse poison. It seems the squirrels are eating the mouse stuff, which is not enough to hurt anything, and the mice are getting into the traps and eating the squirrel food. Great. My next step is just to get some TNT and blow the barn up and start over.. #5. The plan is for me to fly home tomorrow am, get ready to move again somewhere, drive to Phoenix to go the Neil Diamond concert, then come back up for the Labor Day. #6. Everyone is busy busy; a wonderful wedding coming up, travel plans, work, life in general. Wishing everyone a safe Labor Day and we'll all meet up in San Diego!! Love to all, UR/Dad

Lunch w dad ... Yum
