Mud

Mud every where . All I can see is mud . I bet those nurses are happy I quit their contract and now they don't have to try to get here .

Hy 208 nearby has a very pretty canyon you have to drive though to get from here to Gardnerville and Carson City . It now has a land slide that is going to take weeks or months to clear up . All of our doctors and nurses that work here have to travel that route . Most people that live here shop at Wallmart in Gardnerville . All that leaves is Hy 95 to Fallon north or Las Vagas south . Or Alt 95 to Silver Springs . All over night trips to buy anything .

More storms this weekend .

And now I have cabin fever . I want to drag my ass out of here to go somewhere , anywhere ,, To ride out now , To head out into the wild where I want to go would be a “very bad thing” This is the wettest winter in about 30 years . Where I lived two years ago I spent most of my morning's sitting on my porch drinking coffee watching it snow less then a foot or so with just a light coat . Thankful I don't live back east in tornado ally . I hear on the radio they got hit bad . I feel for them and their plight . But I can't cross my yard to get anything . At least I didn't lose every thing to mother nature . All I have to do is sit quietly and wait and all will return to normal . I would like to be out there to see all the creeks and dry wash's running full but I can't even get my 4x4 out my gate . Just to make my weather enforced “shut in” better , One of my old riding buddy's , I thought he had passed away , called me ,,,, Drunk ,,,,,{he's over 80} to inform me he's on his way here . How he's going to get here I have no idea . His kid's put him in a home where if he wander's off they drag him back . Oh how low the mighty have fallen . It would have been kinder to let him “ride to his end” instead of putting him in a home . George {Butch short for butcher } was an enforcer and a Baptist preacher for the club . I have seen Butch clear bars . Emptied road houses . Now they drag him back when he “wanders off” . It makes me wander is that to be my fate?? Is this the fate of us who have lived beyond our time ?
