If Anyone Cares

This is my first blog, so there is a bit of a learning curve. I guess it is good to climb part of it before Marshall and I hit the road. I've stored a few posts that seem most appropriate for some time during the trip; however, I've (already) learned that they end up being posted in the blog according to the date when they were originally created.

The work isn't completed, but possibly will be later this year....placing much of it in the collections of Colorado College, and possibly the Pioneer Museum and Pikes Peak Library. Hooked up with my pal Chester Murphy in Trinidad, and then we visited Bishop's Castle, the Great Sand Dunes, Colorado Gator Farm and Bob and Maggie Sauer in Durango. A great deal of joint work occurred in 2019, as Raven had her left ACL surgically repaired in January, and her right ACL in November.  She is now the bionic dog....         Oh, and I got a new hip in October which, in retrospect, was about five years over due....Now, I'm pain free and much m
