Will it’s taken me a week to do it. Some years back it would
have only taken a day or two. But I got-er done. Will almost; need another bucket of red barn
paint, and some more timbers to put the roof on it, a tarp and some two bys
work for now. Anyway we now have an 8ft by 10ft deck. The old steps are still
there under the deck, they had sunk because back when the built this place they
did not have a compactor like they have today, and they just push in the back
fill, and build the forms for the concrete steps and a 3ft square porch. So after fifty years it sank about three inches
and tilted about twenty degrees, making that first step about a ten inches step down to a downhill slant. Good
place to go for a wild ride, if you don’t watch your step.
Meanwhile; back at the ranch Mouse
Will I will be here he is, howdy Doc! Welcome to spilt milk
ranch, ok where that belly aching rodent at? Out in the bunkhouse. Now, Doc you
shouldn't talk like that about Mouse you know how he gets all riled up. Has he
got them dam nine shooters? No doc I took and put the in the strong box till he
is better. Will let me take a look at him, how long has he been like this?
Will he started to say he could hear a slapping sound on the
first of June, and his eyes got glass and wild looking, and then his right arm
started to jerk, he mumbled something about being bitten and salmon flies. Will
this is the worst case I have seen in a long time.
He going to be alright Doc isn't he. Sure he will be right
as rain just get him up there on the scare creek with his fly rod. He got the
worst case of trout fiver I have seen. Say Doc I have a couple of pullets you
can have, we got some beeves to sale on the first, and I can pay you then. I got
a baby to deliver over at the Johnson, so I will see you later. Bring me back
some trout.
Will boys let’s get saddle up it looks like we are going
fishing.
Thank you for stopping and god bless
