Don't know what happened to the comment box. Said I wasn't registered with them. Until I get it straightened out you can leave comments in the our photo link.

I've been working a lot lately, 7 days a week. I was supposed to have the rest of the week off but another job is ready so back to work I go.

We had a pretty good spring snow storm with cold weather, but today is sunny and warm. Hopefully the snow is done and the sun is here to stay. Looking forward to summer.

So when I left for work this morning it was snowing. Coming home I had the air conditioner on.

The fire was at 8,000 + acres this morning. Haven't heard yet if the storm helped any.

Jeannie is still planning to come to California for mothers day. If you want to see her, you better make your reservation now. She will be in Calimasa, Morano valley and Big Bear so far.

We have a 3500 acre fire burning south west of Ft.Collins.

A pine tree fell across the back of my truck today. Didn't do much damage, just broke one of the side boards, and broke the air fitting off my compressor.

Supposed to have some weather coming in, and that's about it.....

It was another beautiful day in the Rockies. What little snow we got is gone.

I'M pretty busy right now so I don;t know how often I'll be posting. It only takes a minuet to stop by and see what's new.

Ya know how they blow down buildings? Well the people who are doing the I-25 expansion set charges to drop two over passes. Only one came down. Colorado...what a concept ;^)

It's been snowing for the last two days. We have about 3", and the temp is in the high 20's. I don't imagine it will stick around long, just enough to keep the ground good and muddy.

Jeannie and me laid around all day and didn't do a damn thing. Our snow storm came in, but it's not really snowing just cloudy and cool. So now were going out to dinner.

Don't forget to check the photo links when you stop by. I add new ones every few days. The latest is of Lake Granby taken from about 20 miles north west, and a couple thousand feet above. One of our forest road trips. We take as many as we can and have seen a lot of Colorado. We still haven't made it to Aspen, but it's on the trip list. We went to Vail last year, one of Colorado's famous resorts. Sounds like it should be one of those quaint little alpine ski villages. It's a mountain side crammed with over priced condos and an interstate running threw the middle of it. It probably was a nice place once.
Colorado has a few ski areas right on the interstate, Copper Mountain and A Basin are all that come to mind, but it makes them easy to access. No 11,000 Ft pass to cross like Winter Park and Mary Jane.

Wondering who's having sex in the barn?? On second thought.........

Yes Tim I did and thanks again, I guess I forgot to call you. I need another part so I was going to call you but I keep forgetting. It sucks getting old!!

Big Bear is burning...Bummer. I hope they get it out. We have had 3 fires so far and fire season is still 6 months away. Of course with the beetle kill being so bad, fire season is a year round thing now.

Got an email from our friends Lil and Larry who live in New Mexico. Lil says it's been hot there. Guess it's been hot all over the west. We got rain today, quit a bit. This is the first time it's rained before the end of May since we've lived here. That's good news for you water suckers down yonder. They say we may get some snow this weekend. We'll see.

I managed to upload another photo to the our photos link. Check it out, you can also leave comments.

I read in one of my construction publications the median price for a home in southern California has reached $351.000. The annual appreciation is about 20.1%. A lot of people have predicted the market would top out a couple years ago. Guess they were wrong. The median price in Denver is $100.000 to $150.000 less, but most of the mountain community's is about the same as California, over valued.

The suns out and it's already pushing 50.

Yesterday was sunny and hot, at least for this time of year. We were in the upper 60's. Today it's cloudy and they are calling for thunder showers in the mountains. Denver had a record high yesterday and is expecting another one today. All this hot weather is great but isn't doing any thing for the water situation. Our snow pack is below normal and that means less water for the front range city's and the down river states that depend on Colorado river water. We have plenty our selves, so da hell wit ya's!!

I added a couple nice rainbow pics to the Yahoo photo link. They were taken last summer on Rabbit ears pass just above Steamboat springs...check em out.

It's another awesome day in the Rockies. A few clouds floating around. Everyone I have run into is in a great mood cause of the weather...yea sun!!

What an absolutely beautiful day we had today. It was in the upper 60's with just a few stray puffy blue clouds. We have no air pollution round her, just clear and beautiful. Of course nothing has started to bloom yet, that won't happen for another month or so, but it was so nice who cares.

So we did our taxes, owe the feds 6 bucks and have a little coming back from the state. That's pretty much the way we try to do it every year. Would rather have to pay a little than give the feds some interest free cash.

hopefully the great days will keep on coming for us and you to.......:^)

That's great Glo, you just started and already your looking to expand your business into other states. That's just wonderful.

Getting our taxes done today...Oh goody, get to give George a little more money to squander.

It's spring time in the Rockies, and for the first time since we've lived here, it's not snowing. What we do have on the ground is going away pretty fast. Shadow mountain lake is showing signs of thawing. IM sure we'll get a storm or two before the end of May. Guess it's time to store the sled, and set up the old bbq.

Everybody have a great weekend ;^)

...YOUR FIRED!!...

Hi Misty, Hi Daniel...There are jobs here, it just depends on what you want to do. The logging business seems to be picking up, the area is over run with bark beetles and it's killing trees left and right. Whole stands are dead. It's sad because it's so ugly, but it's natures way of renewing unhealthy forests that have been mismanaged for so many years. Lets hear it for the forest service.
We are getting a new City market, they should be breaking ground this month. It should be open this fall.
Construction has been fairly steady and it looks like it will be a good building season. There has been steady growth and lost of stuff in the works, weather it be true or not only time will tell.
IM sure you wouldn't have any trouble finding work.

It's like summer has come early to the Rockies, but it's still to early to tell.

Happy St. Patty's day to all!!
Jeannie told me about the valium thing Glo...LOL, and yes would love a fresh icy cold lemonade, ya got somethin to put in it??

I just love getting emails asking me to verify my credit card numbers or bank account information. What;s amazing is the number of people who fall for it. I just got one from paypal wanting me to varify my credit card information for my paypal account. I don't have a paypal account.

It's overcast...wait, the sun is peeking threw...no there it goes...hate days like this...need some sun!!!
