Grandkids

Janelle and her family are here visiting for a few days. How nice it is to have family around. We don't get visitors much. We went to the Oregon Caves and Jerry took them on a rafting trip. The kids were very happy about the rafting trip. Today we are going to Indian Mary Park and then on to Galice for lunch. should be another nice day. They will be leaving tomorrow. It is nice to get away from the store once in a while.
Buy for now,

Fire will be going for a while

The Oak Flat Fire just north west of us is still going. only 15% contained. About 1250 acres burning in rough terrain. It is hard for the Fire Fighters to put it out.
Daughter and family are coming to visit for a few day. I hope the smoke doesn't bother them. They are from Southern Cali so they should be used to the smoke. It will be fun to have them here for a while.

Haven't Posted in a while

We have a forest fire going on in our area. It is about 6 miles nw of us. About 500 acres and it is in tough terrin. No containment yet because it is hard to get to. I is a little to close for comfort but we are watching it. Its called the Oak flat fire in southern oregon.

Nothing much

Everything has been about the same everyday. Sales are up year to date this year so far which will look very nice for the presective buyers of the store when we put it up for sale next year. Next month will be 8 years and would like to retire in the next year or so. We have to sell the store to retire. There have been a few small country stores sold in the area lately, so we hope when we put it up for sale it won't take too long. Finger crossed.

Hot! Hot! Hot!

Man has it been hot here and it should not. 103 is not right. Not much going on just working the store and keeping cool.

the ipad

Well it finaly came by fedex. The IPad Jerry ordered last week. What a wonderful machine. He is in the learning mode. pretty cool thing. He is downloading apps as I watch. More later as he (we) learn how to use it.
Bye for now, Lu

Trip to Coast

Today we had a chance to go over to the coast. We had a Angela come in and work for the day. It was a nice day to get out of the heat. As we got closer to the coast it go cooler. 60° on the coast and 90 here. Stopped at liquor store in California because its cheeper than here. When we came back home we took a route that is closed in the winter. High elevation, lots of curves and cliffs. Nice drive in the summer. Not any traffic at all. We need to take a day off once in a while.
