And time has certainly been flying by lately. And nothing much to show for it.
My living room has now received another coat of paint. The rest remains vacant. Remember the saying about the shoemakers child having no shoes - well the construction workers Mom has no floor. Everything is still piled up waiting.
We all thought that with the poor economy the middle son's work would slow down. They do remodels generally and not new construction. Seems like folks are fixing up still. Since they can't/don't want to sell their homes with values the way they are they are remodeling. Thus I wait.
I am having company in July, hopefully I will have a living room by then.
A large group of my online friends has joined Facebook. I finally gave in and joined up. I really wasn't ready for that learning curve but have at least gotten a couple of old photos posted to the group of old friends.
My brother and I continue visiting Old Faithful via the webcam. We have even seen wolves now besides the bison that seem to graze near the geyser on a semi-regular basis. One of the most interesting things is watching the people. They arrive early, some scrape the snow off the benches and sit, others just stand, waiting for Old Faithful to do its thing. We have watched them wait for over twenty minutes sometimes. Then after the first gush most of them leave. Those folks miss some of the best displays. Must be hurrying to the next spot so they can tell everyone back home all they saw. Some folks are really fun, the ones that find the cam and turn to wave at the folks back home. The skiers seem to use OF as a rest stop. And enjoy the view apparently.
I am starting to learn the names of the other geysers visible via that cam but OF remains a favorite. At least until Redoubt gets around to actually doing more than just blowing off steam.
Look close and you can see the wolf.
