Remote Area.  Described by Google as “a remote and isolated community that is either a long distance from highly populated settlements or lacking in transportation links that are typical in more populated areas.”  Described by me as Arlington, Colorado.

    Lots of people from our area took advantage of the opportunities they had to enjoy the county fairs in Prowers, Cheyenne, or Greeley Counties this past week.  Our grandson Kyle and I went to Tribune Saturday evening for the Ice Cream Social and parade.  Well, it rained on our parade - sheets of rain for about an hour.  They received around 2".  We had .6 in Towner and it was certainly welcome.

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”  Philippians 4:6.
   Welcome to Kourtney Richards who has moved back to Eads from Idaho where she worked as a nurse in a large hospital.  Her two sons and daughter are looking forward to starting school in Eads.   They enjoy times with their grandmothers, Karen Krueger and great grandmother, Hazel Krueger. 

Calves.  Described by Google as “baby cows”.  They could also be baby elephants, baby seals or baby whales.  I call them Bread and Butter.  The calves we have on this little corner of the “wide open spaces” provide us the opportunity to pay the bills.  And buy new shoes...and Starbucks.  Dustin takes great pains in caring for them.  Each one of them.  Every day. Them and their mothers.
