Day 188




















1-3 Woodworking! My rough and tumble jig for the router. Detail of the mortise and tenons. Completed one door's worth or mortises & tested them out with mock tenons. They are starting to look like carriage doors, I'm so excited!
4. The Buckeroo! with Tyler & Kenneth H. 
5. The arena
6. Cowgirls!
7. This is one of my favorite parts... when the cowgirls ride intricate patterns. Love it.
8. Buckin' Broncs
9. The announcers booth... real high tech... the person on the right has just lowered by string a clipboard of papers to an official down below. 
10. What else? Stuffing my face with a GIANT elephant ear. Tyler didn't realize how big they were... we couldn't finish it!

Day 187
















1. The Ayers leaving for Bend... so sad. But happy for them. Andrew & Daniel went along to help unpack the truck and then spend the weekend hanging out with the cousins that are arriving tonight.
2. At the feed store, waiting for feed.
3. & 4. Hannah and I being all crafty like and creating an ugly gate frame
5. Framed. 6. Enjoying ice cream as reward for our hard work
7. Silas and Jacob enjoying their ice cream on the bench.
8. What else? Woodworking, knocking apples off the trees, noticing how quiet the house was when you're used to 13 people for two weeks and then 7 of them leave. Wow.
