What’s the Deal?

Does it seem to you that it gets colder than it used to? I don’t think it does but it sure seems to bother me more and more as I get older.  I have to keep telling myself that it is "Winter". I guess I used to just go on to work and forget about it. January is the Winter here in the Desert.  It doesn’t last long and it’s a small price to pay for all the enjoyment we get out of staying out here in the desert.  Plus, we NEVER have to shovel snow. That was always the worst thing about the 40+ years I spent in Nebraska, scooping all the snow!

About the only thing I have accomplished lately is the installation of this cover for the back of the truck. I spoke with a dealer in Rapid City that installs several different brands of these and he told me the best one to get. I purchased one and had it shipped direct to me here at North Ranch. He told me it was easy to put on and he was right. It was fun to install and I am very pleased with it.

It's a real nice vinyl and with a flip of the latch in the rear, you can roll it up and Velcro it up in the front. So I can just roll it up when I have the Harley or anything else big loaded. Now we have a place we can haul something that is well protected and out of the weather.

There's not much going on around here so not a lot to write about. We've both been a little "under the weather" but we're on the mend.  Hope your first few days of 2011 have  been good ones.

It is a GREAT WEEK!!!!

Thanks for stopping by.
