Just a little news

No pics today....just a little news to keep all updated.  I do have some snaps but need to download them.  We are having some hot weather and I still have no moss growing on my back yet.  I keep hearing that it will rain, but not so far.  We will be closing on our home this week.  Walk through is scheduled for Wednesday.  It was exactly one month ago Friday that we closed in Cheyenne and just 3 weeks Saturday since we have been here at Erica and Jeffery's.  We still have to find out when our household contents can be delivered so we may be here for a while yet, but at least we can tell people that we will have an address.  I will not post this on the blog, but will get it in a few days to whoever wants it and to share with friends as you see fit. We are slowly finding our way around and went to the Thurston County Fair on Friday.  One thing that we noticed was how different it was from our local fairs, especially the one in Carbon County.  Farm animals and FFA members were very much a big part of the fair...pigs, rabbits, sheep, (lots of goats), chickens and ducks seemed to dominate the animals..not so much cattle as in Wyo ranching country.  Also, flower arranging was huge and very little needlework with the exception of quilts. I was so pleased to see so many quilts and spoke with some great gals from 2 different quilt guilds.  One guild meets at night, another in the mornings and there was a modern quilt guild which I did not take the opportunity to speak with.  They actually were doing a lot of wool applique demonstrations.  Our home is very close to the fair grounds it turns out, so that will be nice in the future.  Not much to relate just yet, but will take more pictures on Friday.  We know we will need a washer and dryer, microwave, sofa and hope to ditch at least one snow shovel.  So....until we know more.....
