End of another great day. I got the best text today from Esther my oldest who has been holding down the fort while I am away. She is walking dogs, watering the garden, cooking for her husband, dad and brother, doing laundry and getting all the errands done that I usually do. Quote “Your life must be weird. I feel like I live at the bank and Whole Foods.”
So with that I am over and out. More tomorrow – our last day.
Sounds like you are having a blast with new techniques!!! Or is this a refresher course? Have fun!
Hi Suzanne I am learning new techniques. It has been a great learning experience and Mark is a wonderful teacher. Steve arrives today and we will go to Canyon de Chelley for a couple of days for some r&r! Hope you are well.
