Update!!

So, Odin was finally able to finish spraying the crop and the chem fallow. I thought I'd share a photo of the ruts where he DIDN'T get stuck. Yes. You read that correctly. He didn't get stuck here!!! The poor spray pickup worked really hard. So, did Odin. He walked many miles back and forth between the pickup and the tractor to pull himself out. I think his "record" for number of times getting stuck per day was something like 7 or 8 times.

Odin surprised me last Sunday and took me to brunch at the Fort Peck Hotel and then for a drive out to "Bone Trail" on Fort Peck! It was a wonderful relaxing day. Calli went too, of course! She really enjoyed swimming in the lake. She hasn't quite got the dog paddle down yet. Believe it or not. She paddles feverishly with her front legs and lets her hind legs float behind her. It is really funny to watch.

 Some of the views!

 We even saw 3 bull elk

 Man, for being such an unfriendly plant, cactus have uniquely beautiful flowers.


 My garden is growing fast! I even picked a bowlful of peas tonight.
