Freedom No More

The other night, my Aunt Judy told us that Awesome has been running around everywhere and that she was surprised he hadn't been hit yet. That meant it was time to get him on the shock collar. Back in May we had dug an underground fence to keep Bob in. I love it! I can go to work and not be worried about Bob running around the neighborhood or have him tied up all day. When Bob was first shocked by the collar he did a back flip and then ran and hid. It took us forever to coax him out. We put Awesome on the collar last night at the same shock level as Bob. The first time he was shocked he didn't do anything! So we put him at a higher shock intensity. He yelped and kept on walking. Bob is a wimp. Awesome is just plain awesome.

My Personal Prince Charming

So here's my story. It has all the fixings of being a fairy tale: there's a damsel in distress, prince charming comes and rescues her, and then they live happily ever after. James and I were camping in Spencer on Memorial weekend. It was snowing and raining on us plus 3/4 of our camp got sick and went home early. There were still snow up in the hills where we were riding at, but it wasn't too bad. One afternoon Jana, Ryan, Leslie, Jana and Ryan's kids, and I decided to go for a ride. They were all on fourwheelers with me on my dirt bike. We got to a certain place on the trail where you could keep going up or get off at the road and go down. We decided to get off at the road and go down. We started hitting snow patches on our way down. At first they were small and then they started to get bigger and deeper. Finally we hit a patch that there was no way any of us could get through without going over the cliff or get stuck. All of sudden a bike appeared out of nowhere. My Prince Charming came and saved the day. He took the four wheelers and bikes over the snow and off we went. And then yes we lived Happily Ever After.
