All settled in

They partially finished my fence and I've got it all fixed up - all the flamingos are out and waiting for Beth and Sparkle to arrive. The chairs are out and the wine is chilling. The people here are really nice and except for my back killing me (that's what I get for sitting around all winter) the work so far, is pretty easy cause we're still in the slow season. They have a big fenced area to turn the dogs loose with some agility pieces, which my dogs ARE NOT interested in. There are so many good smells in the play area that I can't get the dogs to play ball. I throw the ball and I go get the ball. What's wrong with this picture.

Your dogs have trained you well! Every time I see people picking up dog poop I think we are nothing but dogs servants.

The privacy is great. Looks like you are ready for some serious fun. I see the ice maker is still outside. Guess you'll make good use of that.

Great sunset Karen. Looks like you are ready for the troupes. I know you will all have a great time. I Googled Silver City to see exactly where you are and checked out the climate. Sound as though you picked a temperate spot with low humidity. You did good! Y'all have fun.

Glad to see you and the pups??? are settled in and getting ready for the crazy GTG I know will be coming. You know, it seems to take our bodies longer to adjust than it used to. Hmmmm, couldn't be age could it. Well, after traveling around the US and sitting in a sunny resort in FL this winter, I can say that you are in better shape than many of the women I've run into. Have fun and don't let Sparkle and Beth talk you into anything too crazy :lol: :lol: :roll: carold

Karen is the one that's taking us into the wolves den. She can get into trouble without our help. Hey Karen, we bought a bottle of Mimosa (Champagne and OJ) for our visit with you. I think the Flamingo glasses will approve.

looks cozy, love the fence, makes it really private. Had to ask a friend at work
today how long it takes to get to Silver City from where I am, (shes from there)
and its about 5 and a half hours by doing the legal speed limit. Your not so far :P

Karen, looks like you are getting all settled in, I love the privacy fence. That sunset is gorgeous.!!!! Sunsets out west, always seem so much prettier. Won't be long Sparkle and Beth will be there, you all have fun, but keep us all posted on the details, or most of them :)

Take care, hope the muscles all quit aching soon.

Karen, what a great setup! I am so out of touch, I have no clue where you are! Where is that pretty place??

Wish I could be there with you and Sparkle and Beth, and whomever!
