Death Valley Flowers... Macro Style!

These are little tiny flowers, no bigger than a dime at most!

Happy Birthday Chris!

Hi Chris... a message/blog JUST for you:

Happy Birthday to YOU!

Happy Birthday to YOU!

Happy Birthday, dear Chris.

Happy Birthday to YOU!

Hope you have a fabulous day!

Some pictures from Beatty!

This is a snapshot from a video that I took today of how a truck's load of asphalt is dumped in front of the paving machine. I will try to figure out how to make it a video later. Maybe. Our first day of paving went extremely well! YAY!

This is a shot looking into the valley towards Beatty.

This is one of our trucks hauling rock in THREE trailers at once! Only in Nevada!

Another shot of a truck with three trailers...

Beatty!

We're back in Beatty... and very busy and very happy to be here! No time to upload or find pictures. I tried to get one from a picture but it's taking too long. Hope you're all well! The flowers in Death Valley have not quite bloomed, and the trucks start paving Tuesday... just in time to drive the tourists crazy who will have to drive slowly behind loaded trucks! Ah... timing is everything!

Random Pictures...

This hawk has begun to visit our "turkey" tree every few days. So beautiful!

This is one of the truck door "stickers" I made using the Cricut machine... I used yellowish vinyl on top of sparkling green backing to cover up our sign with S & A for our Lessee. This is a shot from a distance...

and this is what it looks like close up! I LOVE using this machine!

I like this picture of Jeff washing the windshield... hope you do too!

Too busy...

Morning all... life is too busy to blog! I'm at home for now, and moving into a different desk at work. We have added a new office person! YAY! The rain continues to wreak havoc on our jobs, but we're hanging in there. I have a new toy phone... the Verizon Droid! Wow does it make "walking" on the eliptical machine a lot more fun! I am able to go 25 minutes on the eliptical now... and getting "off" afterwards is an event because I'm always so wiped out... but I am excited to be able to get moving! Thank God (literally) for the 12 steps to the apartment in Beatty and the 32 steps to the condo in Cabo! Love to you!
