We had some dark, dark clouds last evening, and they created some fun photo backgrounds.
We also have some cold weather this morning.
Thankfully, I had the heater on in the greenhouse, where all starts are now living.
Yesterday marked the last of plants to water on a table near the sliding glass door.
Keeping my fingers crossed that the lettuce and cabbage I planted outside will survive.
These two!
Can you imagine having three horses and two farriers.
It happens on occasion here at the Lovestead.
I never know who's going to roll in with Steve Rice when he comes to work on the horses.
Yesterday Kyle Hoodenpyle came along.
So far, since he's been shoeing and trimming my horses, Steve has brought three different assistants, including his wife, who's a farrier herself.
Anyway, four shoes went on horses yesterday, two fronts for Lily and CB and just a trim for Lefty.
Now dogs have some equine-flavored chewies.
Below: Steve Rice and Kyle Hoodenpyle.
Bill is always willing to tell a Rocky Cartwright story or two.
He met and worked with Rocky when he started with the U.S. Forest Service in the Bonners Ferry District 50 years ago.
Knowing his appreciation for Rocky and Forest Service history, I'm posting the item above for him and any other Forest Service alums.
Looks like a neat program is planned.
So, Caitlin Clark, from Iowa, earns the No. 1 draft pick in the WNBA.
She's picked by the Indiana Fever
She will earn $338,056 total over a four-year span.

Oumar Ballo, who's played at Gonzaga and Arizona, enters the transfer portal as a college basketball player.
He is picked by the Indiana Hoosiers.
He asks for $1.2 million in NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) money, which apparently Indiana has agreed to give him.
******
Is it just me, or is there something wrong with this picture?
Would Caitlin have done better to enter the college transfer portal than to go pro?
Just wondering.
Why am I feeling sorry for college coaches?
Actually, seeing the benefits, I'm thinking seriously about entering the transfer portal, especially after reading weekly county commissioner meeting reports and ongoing sagas about other three-ring circuses at all rungs of the American political ladder.
Will Ireland pay me some money for my name, image and likeness?
Just wondering.
😏???????😏
In spite of all the craziness, the Selle Valley remains a beautiful refuge from the insanity.
Happy Wednesday.
