LIQUOR AND ICE CREAM

I smell like hay/alfalfa with a hint of LOC (Liquid Organic Cleaner, which you can eat if you want. I wouldn't suggest it though. It tastes like soap. Big surprise there) mixed in.
That's because I spent my day cleaning cabins and feeding horses.
I can't move and I need to shower before dinner because no one ever goes to dinner dirty. So all staff showers between 5 and 6 everyday. So If I don't hurry they'll be no hot water left. not cool. actually it will be cool temperature just not ok.

As we clean we listen to music. We keep forgetting our cds so we listen to "Denver's New Country Station KYGO!" Now any country song that comes on there is a 95% chance I could sing every word of it. Not exaggerating at all. Country music grows on you though. The one time we weren't listening to country today was in the barn when Biff, one of the wranglers, decided he wanted to listen to Dirty Dancing Havana Nights and no one was going to argue. Lisa: I thought of you and Larry Goes to Michigan when we were listening to it.

It's been snowing on and off the past couple of days here. So there's about three feet of snow with a layer of ice on the bottom everywhere. Our handy dandy maintenance guys have been shoveling and plowing nonstop it seems. So it's not really a pain to get around. It's just super pretty.

I forgot to add my address last post:
Leslie Urban
Lost Valley Ranch
29555 Goose Creak Road
Sedalia, CO 80135

It's funny because Sedalia is about an hour and a half East of us. The nearest town is Deckers and is about 12 miles away, or a half hour. Deckers actually just lost it's town status it's so small. It has all the essentials of a town though: a place to get liquor, coffee, fish bait, and ice cream.
What more could you ask for?

Great oi? far away farms. I love to be away from the towns and crowds, but my farm has never seen any snow though (almost forget how cold it can be).

Jessi technically I'm not allowed to drink anywhere in the US. So of course I can't drink here.

Deckers - isn't that out past Conifer? I grew up in Evergreen, which has gotten very suburban lately. Beautiful country. I miss that starry sky you describe.
