Still in Vegas–I think
I wrote yesterday morning, here in my room, then took a welcome break and made a run over to the Las Vegas Convention Center, to take in one of several Cowboy Christmas type shows. Given my usual shopping M.O. at this event, I behaved myself pretty well--one...
Today’s Report from Vegas
I'm still a little hoarse from all that cheering last night at the rodeo, but now that I've had my coffee, and a room-service breakfast is on its way, I'm rarin' to go.No goin' anywhere, though, until I finish the chapter I promised my editor.Once the pages are...
Found in Las Vegas
Tonight, I'm back in touch with my Inner Cowgirl. :)Thanks to my good buddy, Steve Miller, of Montana Silversmiths, I was able to attend the rodeo. It was exciting, as rodeos generally are. Brooks and Dunn sang the opening song, "Cowboy Town", and the arena...
Lost in Las Vegas
Well, I'm sitting on the plane flying down here on the 4th, and I get to thinking, why am I making two trips? That's crazy.So, when I get to the hotel, those folks are kind enough to change my reservations. I'm good right through to the 12th.I went and did Les...
No Moss
There's sure no moss growing under this cowgirl's boot-soles.I'm off to Las Vegas in the morning, as I've mentioned, and I'll be on Les Kincaid's show, for the CRN Radio Network. I did some checking, and if you're so inclined, you can catch the show live on CRNI.net,...
Modern Yarbros
It would seem from your response that you're up for some Rowdy-Wyatt-Gideon descendents. I might even throw in some descended from Ethan and Levi, the handsome but deadly identical twins who didn't get books of their own because they were truly bad men. We'll see....
Randy and me
Seems like I'm a little less crazy every day--thank heaven. The words of one of my favorite Randy Travis songs keep running through my head--Trying' to explain while I'm insane's the hardest thing I've ever tried to do....Randy kept me company all weekend, blaring out...
Snow!
We got a skiff of snow yesterday, as a little Thanksgiving present. :)I roasted a turkey yesterday, but never got around to doing the trimmings. Oh, well. It was just the kind of quiet day I wanted.And I think I've turned a corner with the heebie-jeebies I was telling...
Thanksgiving Notes
It's a quiet Thanksgiving here on the Triple L, and that, believe me, is a good thing. I could use some quiet, and so could the ranch crew. 2008 has been wonderful, but superhectic, with all the building and the renovating, the writing and traveling. Not that I'm...
Ramblings
This year's Thanksgiving celebration will be a quiet one, here on the Triple L. I'm roasting a small turkey, but there won't be a big sit-down gathering--everybody, including me, is just too tuckered out for that. There has been so much activity on this place over the...
On the Upswing
I attended a mixed-media workshop at Spokane Art Supply this weekend, and it was really good for me. Great fun, and a good distraction from ongoing withdrawal symptoms. (Don't worry, I'm NOT going to smoke, if only because I don't want to have to go through the...
Good Morning!
At least, it's still morning here in Spokane--I realize a lot of you are about ready to sit down to lunch. :)It's a sunny day, and after several weeks of almost continual rain, I'm glad and grateful. I plan to take a brisk walk around my pasture after I finish here,...
