WYOMING KITTENS SURE ARE CUTE

Angela sent this photo of one of the babies and I just thought it was the cutest picture I've ever seen.

They're at that age where they discover something new almost every minute of their day and their eyes get as big as can be so they can take it all in.

Angela says, little by little, dogs and cats are "getting acquainted.

"Roo enjoyed some time with the kittens.  I think the kittens enjoyed it too.  We've been working with him and this was the first time off leash."

RICK AND ANGELA ARE WAITING FOR THE BABIES!

Look at these beautiful babies!  I wish I was there to hold them.

Angela says:
"The kittens are about four and a half weeks old in this picture.  The Mom's name is Chloe.

We won't be getting the kittens until July 4th and we can't wait to see and pet them ourselves."

Chloe is retiring from the "baby business" and moving to a wonderful new home.  The babies will have a  home with Rick and Angela where they'll have some beautiful dogs to play with!  I'll be anxious to hear how that turns out!

WONDER IF RICK AND ANGELA HAVE A FIREPLACE?

This will be a good weekend for them to throw a few logs on the fire.  Wyoming is set for some really strong blasts of Arctic air.  Along with some snow, some parts of the state will see 20 below zero temperatures by Monday morning.  Around Worland it will drop to about 4 below tomorrow night.  Rapid City will drop to 9 above by Monday morning.

I hope they aren't planning on any overnight camping in a tent!

Roger sent this picture.

This is from their South Dakota phesant hunt.  He knows what I think of the Great Plains.  To most people this is just a whole lot of nothing.  To me it's a whole lot of heaven!

And, this is a great picture of

Rick and Angela

Rita, Roger, Carl and Kathy are heading for South Dakota today.  They'll meet up with Rick and Angela in the Winner area for some hunting.

Winner is just too close to the Rosebud Reservation for Kathy to pass up dropping a few nickles into the slot machines.  They have a nice casino and hotel there.  Donnie and I stayed there one night.  Too bad they won't be there a bit later in the month.  Clint Black will be appearing at the casino on November 20.

RICK AND ANGELA HAD A SUCCESSFUL HUNTING TRIP

Roger said,

"They're back home. Food for the winter".

TO EACH HIS OWN

I mentioned that Rick and Angela might be cold, this morning, with Worland under a freeze warning. Roger informed me that they're camping in the mountains all week, sleeping on the ground with only a tent between them and nature (which includes the bears).

Rita and I are in agreement that our idea of "camping out" is a nice warm room at a Holiday Inn, preferably, close to the bar.

WORLAND, WYOMING WAS UNDER A FREEZE WARNING THIS MORNING

I'll bet Rick and Angela have their jackets on.

WARM WORLAND

I see Rick and Angela still have summer weather in Worland.  76 today.  81 tomorrow.

DEADWOOD: 135 YEARS AGO TODAY

Wild Bill Hickock was playing poker at the #10 Saloon in Deadwood, on August 2, 1876, when Jack McCall walked through the front door and shot him in the back of the head.  After that there wasn't much excitement in town until I blew in 83 years later.

I also noticed, on the calendar, that Peter O'Toole and Angela have the same birthday.  He's 79 today.  That surprised me.  I thought he was older than that.

Rick and Angela should be celebrating today!

WYOMING IS 121 YEARS OLD!
Wyoming was admitted to the union as the 44th state on this date in 1890!
