Mornin'! (learned how to say that from Norene)

Well, I stayed just long enough to watch the High School Varsity win their first District playoff game last night. John was on base twice and struck out twice. He was really upset with himself last night. Poor kid!

It's gonna get REALLY busy around here so I'm taking off this morning. The Bartkowski's have another District game on Friday afternoon, possibly 2 on Saturday. Tim has a little league team pictures and a double header on Saturday. Next weekend, if the Varsity team wins on Friday, they will go to State Championships on Saturday in Wenatchee, WA. Prom is Saturday night. AND Tim and Rich have a little league tournament (4 games - 2 Saturday & 2 Sunday) in Hermiston, OR. These people must be CRAZY!!!

Anyway, I'm gonna go now while I can. I'm afraid if I wait any longer, Norene won't have time to help me get my stuff together and get me to the P.O.

So, Paula................... I'm on my way!

Got my stuff packed up last night. I've got a few new things I'm bringing with me, along with what I received at Karen's. Oh this is so fun! I am having the time of my life with all this traveling............ and I've only just begun.

See ya soon!

Love and Hugs,

Busy in Washington!

Good afternoon everybody!!

Whew! Have I been a busy puppy since I got here!!! I arrived on the 18th of April and I've been on the go ever since!! I met a new friend the first day I got here. his name is Elmo. He's kinda short and VERY Red, but OH SO CUTE and I really love his laugh. He's also VERY tickleish! Well, we set to work immediately when I got here. Cows had to be fed, lawn had to be mowed, baseball practices and games. Something almost every night. Just wait 'till you see me baseballing! LOL! I've included some pictures of me workin' on the farm. Man does the wind ever blow here! I almost got blowed right off the 4-wheeler one day! Notice my ear flipped up over my new hat. Oh, and also notice my new duds. Norene fashioned them out of some of her old jeans. She didn't want me to get my pretty pink outfit dirty in the barn. I got to know Duke, the family pooch, pretty well. He likes to think of his self as a "cow dog". I beg to differ. We chatted quite a bit in doggy talk while workin' in the barn. I also got "checked out" by Ace, the herd sire. He's really a sweet guy, just lonely. That's all gonna change after this weekend I'm told. He moving out to the pasture to be with his ladies. Last Tuesday, April 24th, was Take Your Son or Daughter To Work Day. Well, since Norene's boys were in school, she took me!! That was fun! I was gonna blog from there, but I never got a chance to get on the computer. She's pretty busy there too. Well, tonight is a big baseball game for Tim and Rich. Tim plays pitcher and catcher. He's pretty good. John plays catcher for the High School JV baseball team and DH and Left Fielder for the Varsity team. Boy is he tall!!! So is his girlfriend, Sydney! I don't know if I'm going to tonight's game or not. I may just stay home and have fun with my little red friend. He he he........ I'm thinking of heading out towards the end of this week. I can't remember, at the moment, my next destination. I'm hoping it's just as fun, but not quite so busy. I need a vacation!! LOL! I don't know how they do it. Well, that's it for now. I'll let you know when I leave here. Enjoy the pictures!!!!

Love and Hugs!
