The park is abuzz with home owners now, a pause in the hunting season and summer time means this place is full (relatively speaking) of folks. Saturday night I visited with some friends, and another friend got a flat on the way home, so I took him back to his house, wanting to fix the tire in daylight, and sans whiskey.
Every house between his and mine was fully lit, fully occupied, and full of warm glowing sun produced light. It was an interesting sight to see, and my first of such since arriving, but the ranch is still quiet, mostly devoid of vehicles, unlike when hunting is in full swing.
The ranch is wet, green and dripping with new life.
