Just received an e mail from Sydney, boy is she having adventures in just getting their stuff. Here is a quote from her email- Two weeks late  and what a day that was!   Friday at 9 -  Driver calls to say he will be here at 10 a.m.  He calls back at 10 a.m. to say that his semi cannot make it through the “round abouts” in the housing development!  We meet him and drive him to a rental company to rent a small truck.  The driver and two men make multiple trips back and forth the mile to our house.  It takes 7 hours!   It was wrapped and loaded in 4 hours in Napa.  At 4:30 while unloading the last load we get one of those Colorado thundershowers.  For 15 minutes it poured like mad - the men put the beds together.   Sam and I both worked like crazy while they unloaded.  Pointing out what went downstairs etc. and Sam unloaded his books in his "Wine and Book" Room.   It was a very long day.   Just think that included clothing.

Hello from Colorado

Echo and Coffee were great travelers
 When we arrived they enjoyed looking for chipmunks and bunnies down on the patio!


We often see deer and and bunnies.  The chipmunks love siting on the patio in the morning to munch on whatever they eat.  They are SO CUTE!  Two nights ago we saw a black bear 70 ft from the front door.  I had just come back from a walk at 8:45!

Thinking about  you all.  Have a great "rest of the summer".   Sydney
