and looking…..open and inside ,   this photograph.    It's Memorial Day weekend,  the weekend  that is set aside to Remember those who have gone before.   how interesting….this pic,  in this unfinished card drawing…..Marjorie Burke Price.   My oh so so Be~loved friend.   I would have sent this card to her….telling her the News,  asking her to Tell me her Understanding of IT….How i MISS HER,  still…so so many years,  but she is still so much who she was then,  in my Heart,  when we would go off for two days on a weekend  to a campground maybe a half hour away.  Take what we needed.   Build a Fire.   Burn things,  set things Free….sit.   Stare off in silence.   I loved her.   I Love her.

    Kids in trees!
    The photo of Marjorie is a reminder of my childhood when we used to go camping in the Jimenez Mountains and Bandelier.
    That must have been a wonderful experience.

    Five photographs, each with its own important story.
    With the temperatures in the hundreds, how are you staying cool?
    Are you able to run a fan off the batteries?
    It’s so sudden. How do the animals cope?

    no…no fan. we tried one last year but it sucked
    energy.
    It’s a Forest. Trees Trees Trees that give SHADe and cool the air outside.
    IN this little tin house, HOT. So i go OutSide….
    haven’t yet gotten that together yet but this will only last this week maybe and i can find a routine that works.
    The Goats don’t mind. It changes their browsing patterns some but no a lot. They still will lay in direct sun part of the time. Further in to many parts of this Hill, it remains cool. ish. Tay is Hot. Sleeps under house mid day.
    nights are always good.
    Must be similar for you just north of this Hill

    But, we have AC. Never needed it until we moved here from the Bay Area. I’m glad you have lots of shade.
