Writing a Book

It has been two years since I started writing the book Life on the Ranch: Life Lessons I Learned from the Ranch.    Today I received the proof of what the cover will look like.  Once we give the approval for the cover and the text, it will go into print. 

This has been a learning experience.

The Book

I have found writing the book Life on the Ranch: Life Lessons I Learned on the Ranch a real adventure.  I had no idea what all is involved in getting a book published, but it is about to happen.  Today I learned that the preflight of the book was accepted or approved.  We are now waiting for a copy of the cover to be shipped overnight air and delivered by UPS for our approval.  When we approve everything, it will then go to print.  What a great experience and wonderful adventure.  I have learned so much during this experience.

Highway 323

Highway 323 is finally paved all the way.  Such a nice smooth road to drive on when we go anywhere.  I sincerely hope that our vehicles will begin to last longer before they start rattling.

Last night a vehicle had a flat tire a couple of miles up the road.  They couldn't get the tire out from underneath the vehicle.  They left it and will return tomorrow to get it.

Hunting season has opened.  It is harder to find a deer than it is to find a needle in a haystack.  We have had three hunters fill their tags.  The last one shot a 3X4

Antelope

Yesterday was opening day for antelope season.  Chip and I went out yesterday afternoon and I filled my first tag.  As you can see, Jake was a big help.
