April at Hart Ranch

We should have known better.  We've been back three weeks and I can't count how many times it has snowed.  Our pipes have frozen up a couple of times, and we're having a blizzard today.  ARRGH MAKE IT STOP!!!!  You won't see me complain about 90 degree weather this summer.

Here are some pictures of what's been going on since we arrived on March 25th.

This was the snow over night 3/25 into 3/26

The snow melted and the deer came through on the 28th
It snowed again on March 31st

This was the HIGH on March 31st.  We froze up on that day!

We made rack of lamb for Easter. Luckily we were able to get thawed out - great dinner!

This was the blizzard warning on the phone on April 12th.

This is how it looks on April 13th.  We hit the high of 30 at 7:00 a.m.  We're supposed to get 8 inches and 60mph winds!

Two days after the blizzard we have a South Dakota ottoman!

Hart Ranch

We made it home to Hart Ranch on Sunday the 25th.  This is the first time ever that we haven't had to hunker down in Wyoming to wait out wind or snow!  We had some wind along the way, some helping/some hurting; a little bit of snow, and rain.  When we stopped in Fillmore, Utah, they hadn't turned the water in the park on yet, so we "roughed" it that night. 

We unloaded the bikes in the arrival parking lot, got backed in and set up before the snow Sunday night.  It's too muddy in the storage yard to put the Spyder in the garage, so it's out front with the cover on.  The golf cart started right up (surprisingly!).

We start work next week - we're ready to get back at it!    This week we put in a new back splash behind the stove - we finally got all the holes covered from when we took the convection oven out.  It looks great!

That's it for now!

This is the view from the Fillmore campground


This is the view from our window at Hart Ranch- about 3"!

The deer came through on Wednesday evening!

This is the new back splash.  LOVE IT!
