Lately Brandon and I have been in the habit of reading books in the park on Sunday. It's such a wonderful activity to do together. Sometimes we read different books, sometimes we both read the same book, and sometimes one person reads aloud while the other listens. I'm so grateful to have found a boy who loves reading almost as much as I do. Right now we are working on Ender's Game. Next up is the whole Harry Potter series which HE HAS NEVER READ. I know. I can't believe I have dated a boy for 9 months who has never read Harry Potter. But don't worry, I'm finally taking action.<br />

Katie, Matt, and I decided to fly home for a weekend in October. Dad was planning on going to Samoa and his flight was canceled. Unfortunately that prohibited him from getting there at all.

Yesterday Katie, Matt, and I went up the canyon- again. While Matt was fly fishing Katie and I hiked around and just enjoyed being out in nature. I honestly can not get enough of that place. Coming from the Pacific Northwest I miss trees with all my heart. There are so many up in the canyon it feels a little like being home. The minute we start ascending into the arms of the mountain I feel chains unlocking from around my heart and I feel so free. </div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;"> Beneath the lonesome Chispa Mountains in the vast desert
of Far West Texas, between the cholla and Spanish dagger there rests a small
adobe house. Following the smell of homemade flour tortillas and baked beans,
through the screen door, with a hole the size of fist through the middle, and
down the stone hallway, a dining room full of hungry ranch hands can be found. They
bustle this way and that around the table, each with a mission to get supper
ready. Though there are sundry mouths to feed, the phrase “many hands make
light work” is in full play. Within minutes ten eager faces take a seat in one
of the cow print chairs surrounding the old yellow pine table. Jane, as always,
is the last to enter the room, and take her established seat at the head.</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">She surveys the spectacle before her with pride
beaming in her eyes and with a smile she reaches out to hold the calloused
hands of each person on either side of her. The room falls silent as all
present follow her example. With heads bowed Jane begins and the others
simultaneously join in, “Comemos y bebemos juntos)!” “We eat and drink
together!”</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">“Now dig in”, she says with a
grin.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;">A
long-time native of the Pacific Northwest, one would imagine Jane to be a
complete fish out of water in this Far West Texas territory but after just a
few hours observing her immersed in the errands of the ranch you must rightly
conclude she is anything but. Much of what she learned she attributes to her
Mexican amigo Jose’, an illegal immigrant worker on the neighboring Hamilton
ranch and best friend of Jane.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;">Rising
with the first rays of the sun, Jane hustles out to meet Jose’ as he rides up
like clockwork with his two sons Manuel (17), and Ricardo (15) astride their
mules at his side. Attired with chaps
and a handlebar mustache, skin like leather, and a crucifix around his neck you
know you are looking at the real deal. Every line in his face, hole in his
pants, and scar on his body, testifies of the brutal life of a Mexican cowboy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="line-height: 200%;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"> Jane opens the ranch gate and lets the boys in greeting
them with a warm “hola mis amigos!” Jose’ stops to chat with Jane while the
boys canter into the yard, giving a little show to the sleepy eyed girls
watching from the screen door. Jose’ lets out a harsh Spanish bark at the boys
– a call to order, though never losing the twinkle from his beetle black eyes.
Today is shoeing day and there is much work to be done. Chatting animatedly
they make their way to the barn. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;">With
two symmetrical patches on the rear of her working jeans, Jane bends down to
lift the foot of her horse. With a mild tap-tap on the side of his lower leg,
she asks permission to hold his foot. Biscuit, a seven year old chocolate brown
gelding turns his quizzical gaze from a lone jack rabbit dashing by the water
tank to his master below. With a slight pause he shifts his weight and gently
raises his foot for her to hold. Biscuits shoe has worn thin and the nails are
beginning to bore deep inside his hoof.
Without a word Jose’ reaches over from her side asking permission to
take over. She willingly hands him Biscuits foot and retreats back, wiping her
bandana over her sweat and dust covered face. She crouches down by his side and
watches intently while he begins to work. You can almost see her pull out her
imaginary pen and paper and begin to take detailed notes. With one fell sweep, Jose’
removes the shoe, nails and all, from the foot of poor Biscuit. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;">One
by one the others leave the comfort of their beds and prepare for the day. The
sun is low in the sky and the temperature is still a merciful 89 degrees. Left
over beans and tortillas are on the menu for breakfast again this morning with
a small plate of cactus fruit, nopales and some cantaloupe. Still everyone
seems perfectly delighted with this selection and all eagerly dig in, fueling
for the long hours of work ahead. While Jane, Jose, Manuel, and Tom (Jane's 21
year old son) work on shoeing the rest of the horses, the others divide and
conquer. Some grab sheers and kerosene and head off to go tackle the hackberry
that has coiled itself around the fence. Others grab wheelbarrows and shovels and
begin the arduous task of picking rocks up out of the corrals. The sun rises
higher and higher in the azure sky and once eager and energetic faces begin to
droop. Covered in Jane mandatory safety ranch outfit of blue jeans, long sleeve
flannel shirts, cowboy boots, gloves, cowboy hats, and bandanas around the
neck, they receive maximum protection from the sun and harsh terrain. Even with
all the precaution the heat begins to take its toll. Every half hour or so the
young girls head down to the house to fill up the water and Gatorade canteens.
Not a drop is spilled as each worker gulps down the precious element- here
water is like gold. Water is life. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;">Finally,
when it truly becomes just too much to bare, Jane announces they have just shod
the last horse. Tired but satisfied expressions are exchanged along with a few
feeble high fives as they begin to pack up their gear and head back to the
house. Jane pulls out otter pops and cookies for a quick snack. After finishing
they all strip down and joyously make their way up to the water tank perched
above the ranch house on Choya Rock, Jane leading the way. Without hesitation
she climbs to the top of the ladder and gracefully dives in. The others quickly
follow suit, the dust and sweat circling about them. The feel of the water
revives their spirits and they swim about, jumping and splashing like children.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;">All
throughout the day a goat from Jose’ personal herd has been cooking in the kitchen.
He is preparing Sangria-goat blood soup; a real treat for those with a taste
for authentic Mexican cuisine and a real adventure for those lacking. They
gather together in the yard this night, under the fruit lights hanging from the
mesquite trees. Tom plays his mariachi guitar and Jane, Jose’, and sons all
sing along while the others dance or clap along with the music. After the long
day of work everyone moves slowly. Time does not exist out here, there is no
reference to the clock, or deadlines, or rushing. Jane, with her unfailing
ambiance of peace and simplicity sits at the front of the table, looking out at
the spectacle before her with an almost reverent expression across her face,
she bows her head taking the hands on either side of her- “Comemos y bebemos
juntos!” she leads, “We eat and drink
together!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
