Good events also took place on that date. One for instance is that today is John's birthday. For this I am extremely thankful. He would not be alive today if it were not for extremely talented physicians and caretakers. And for our decision to put him on life support rather than follow our previous decision of artificial means to stay alive.
We had a visit from a strange to us bird. I sure Judy can identify it. I have looked on websites and thus far cannot find it's name.
The physicians assured John and I that this was a "temporary measure and he probably would be off the ventilator on Monday." Monday turned into a long six weeks, but John is here and doing better than anyone expected.
Happy birthday to my love and best friend. May God bless you in is infinite wisdom with many more.
Today is his day. We are doing whatever he chooses. This means target practice with his gun, fly fishing and trying on the socks I have been knitting for him for almost a year, off and on.
They are still not done because I do not know how to make the toe on a process called the "Magic Loop."
He also wants a campfire tonight since the ban on campfires was lifted just yesterday.
We went to where a ranger suggested we shoot. John gave me my first shooting lesson. First came all the safety instruction, then how to load the gun and how to shoot.
Some of my shots went about three feet above the target. Some were below the circle in the white area, but I got two bulls eyes my second turn.
We are in Bellevue, Idaho in BLM territory. This is the first Bureau of Land Management camping we have done since in Clark's Dry Lake and Blair Valley at Anza Borrego State Park in San Diego County, California. I had forgotten just how enjoyable this kind of camping is. We want to do more of this!

No neighbors close by. Unless you want to call a quarter of a mile close by. That is with the exception of a possible visit of Sandy and Jim Dixon, Scooter and Skittles.
Until next time...God bless you....
