At left is a water iris which is blooming in our pond of green pea soup. However ugly it is, the plants and the fish seem to flourish. The fourth of July here was a beautiful and we took ourselves downtown, along with friends, to view the parade and the shoot-out which is always staged at noon on the 4th on the main street of this little western town. It is really a melodrama of sorts with saloon "floosies" smacking the local men during the parade with lipstick kisses and flirting with all. Then there is gunfire and always a villain and a hero who saves the day. Fireworks follow in the evening and we are fortunate to have an anonymous person who is very generous to the residents of this little western town by donating these. We took a trip in the afternoon to the mountains to see how much snow was still there and discovered that we would have no trouble getting to the area where we normally camp. Now to the etc. part of this blog. For those of you who haven't heard directly from us or indirectly from others, we have our home listed for sale. We have been looking at real estate in Cheyenne and depending on our market, we may be moving.One evening not so long ago, I couldn't resist snapping the sunset. We have such pretty ones here in the west. Happy trails!!
