Gig in Hot Springs went well. Met some old friends and made some new ones. We missed a few familiar faces from the past, but that is as it always is.
Wind is really roraring out ther today. Gust over 50 mph. Sure glad we don’t have snow!
I stopped in Custer and picked up Gabe, our 4 year old grandson. He is the oldest grandson and belongs to Tate and Kass. Tate is our middle son and is a carpenter in the Black Hills. He served in the Army and spent a year over playing in the sandbox when out country first went in to Iraq. Tate and Kass also have Lige who is almost 3.
I thought Chance and Hope were going to come down this weekend to Hot Springs, but things changed for them. Chance is our youngest son and just lives a few miles from us. He is the father of Gus and Sam.
Tyler, our oldest son and is a priest, is off to Boston for training this week, I believe.
There Dick, know have you got everyone figured out?

Hey Mr. Dennis, Glad ya had a Gud-un. Lemme know when yall get a frost up yore way please. That will mean I got a couple of days to get ready.
I shure hope this Ol suthurn boy don’t rile yall folks up none!! I would chalk it up to jealously..
Thanks James, will try and remember to post the first frost. Could come any day now.
I think that did it, but hell, nobody ever claimed I was the sharpest knife in the drawer. That 50 mph stuff in the winter is miserable. Glad you’re not there just yet
I know all about wind! We are in the mountains some, and it seems like the wind always blows! But I would hate to be in the flat lands when it is snowing and blowing! Here at least the trees will break the snow enough that you can see where the next dip in the road is:)
Yea! I suffer from wind, too – and we’re at sea-level!!!! lol.
