Jack Rabbits, Prairier Dogs and Coyotes...OH MY!

Saturday morning Connie, Lucky, Mitch and I head up to the north east part of the state to the Pawnee National Grass Lands with the intention to hunting us down some critters. We got a nice early start and got up there within a few hours. That's when the fun began.....

We cracked open a few beers and started scoping out the terrain for some p-dog towns. We split into two groups and made our way through the park. It took us a few hours but we finally came across some critters. Out came the guns and Connies new baby and we circled the town. We got but one shot off and the lil critters hid and stayed hidden. Apparently these Pawnee prairie dogs are WAY smarter then the ones in Wyoming and here locally on the outskirts of Boulder. The p-dogs don't go into hiding here....you could shoot one after another and they still scurry in and out of their homes.

Sundown was approaching so we saddled to find a place to camp for the night. We found a little spot right next to a dried up river with some shelter from the wind. Set up camp and built a fire. What a night....it got COLD!! It is February after all.

We got up on Sunday morning to a beautiful day. Made some breakfast and sited in Connies new gun. Hunted down a few more p-dogs and called it a day.

It was soooooo nice to get out of town and disconnect from the world a little.

BOOM BOOM, BANG BANG

Meaning To....

I've been meaning to post pictures of the finished wall at the office for a while now but it seems like every time I remember I'm either not near a computer or something else gets in the way. Well ...here it is, we decided not to do different patio layouts on top, those are going in a different spot but we did put some large slabs on top so we could display our furniture. Now, on to the next 1,000 different projects I have in mind for around here... only that's going to have to wait till tomorrow, the lil one is not feeling well so my mama went and picked her up from school and I'm heading to the doc with her in a few hours to get her checked out. Don't think it's anything major just chest congestion , runny nose but no fever. Nothing a little rest and TLC wont fix! I love the fact that everything is finally starting to turn green. Green makes every thing look better! :)

break #1....

Six weeks.....that's how long she has to have this thing on. It didn't happen playing pond hockey, it didn't happen skiing, it happen tripping down the sidewalk. I mean....REALLY!?!?! Much Love!

vegas....

 This week has been INSANE! We are in the process of getting ready for one of our largest shows in Vegas that the boys leave for on Saturday. It's one of two shows that we do where we get to put our best foot forward and amaze all the buyers for all the boutiques that we sell to. So we have to get it right. With all the new samples that we have been getting from Peru, having to choose a new line has been tough, too many amazing choices to choose from!  Scary, but this is an alpaca sweater that we produced in the 80's and I just happend upon it while digging around in the warehouse the other day. Trust me we've had a HUGE evolution in our sweaters since then! Still fun to see!  Our new line of cottons. We've got two racks that we are sifting through to find the top 30!  On another note, check out Stella and my dad at the top of Hood with some of the CU kids. She sounds like she's having a blast! Missing her a bunch but we get to see her on Saturday. ...
