I was up until almost midnight watching the Buffs beat Wyoming. It was a good game and our QB played like we thought he’d play when we picked him up in the off season. Good win. Now let’s hope the Bronco’s beat the Chargers today. Last year, if the Buffalo’s won, the Bronco’s won. If they lost, so did the Bronco’s. Hoping that trend continues this year.
Tens of thousands are lining up in Phoenix right now for Charlie Kirk’s memorial service. It starts at noon. Thousands also showed up at CSU in Ft Collins yesterday here in Colorado. This is a good sign for the Country. The left is still full of hate though, so the war is nowhere near over. It’ll take years for the Country to come together, if we ever do. I’m not so sure as many on the left are brainwashed by years of radical teachers and left-wing groups. Hope I’m wrong.
We had a nice lunch yesterday with Ben and Eleni who drove down to Eagle to meet us. Ben’s lifetime friend, a rancher who was 68, passed away the other day and the service is Wednesday. He lived on a 6000-acre ranch his whole life and died, of all things, from a bee sting! This guy was as tough as any one you ever knew and apparently didn’t know he was allergic to bees. The Flight For Life helicopter made it to him but by the time they flew him to the hospital, he was gone! Unbelievable. Another one that makes you stop and think about life, so sad.
Lori is leaving around 9 or so for Katy’s service down in Greenwood Village in Denver at noon. She’s adamant that I don’t need to go. She made popovers yesterday and is making some more this morning as the eggs weren’t at room temperature yesterday which made them denser that they should be. Still, they were good. Mom used to make them when we were kids.
Tom’s house is on the market! I told him I’m sure it’ll sell fast as it’s a great house, all fixed up and in a great neighborhood. Guess he had like 16 people through over the weekend.
Big week coming up being the last full week of September and then we’re off to Italy. A couple of our aspen trees out back are already turning orange. The sunsets are nice and the colors are changing fast. Next weekend will be the best time to catch the change before the trees drop their leaves. It’s my favorite time of year. Looks like we’ll be hunting down near Gunnison the first of November. Could be snow by then, we’ll see.
Here’s a picture from the other night. The line on the right is water dripping down from the downspout on the roof from a rainstorm, ha. Not a scratch on your computer screen!
God Bless.
