My Friend Kobae

Kobae spills the drinking water for critters on the front porch pretty much daily.
He finally went on a hike but the sun came out, it got hot, and he turned around and came back, not like the old days of daily three to seven mile hikes.
A week or so ago Kobae saw a warped reflection of himself in the refrigerator door and has been ramming it daily since. Teresa left him a message to delete his reflection and it appears to be working.
Kobae also has some issues with the third and fourth drawers down in the cabinet and he yanks them with his beak out on to the floor. Sunny who visited when I had a work shortage of people put this towel over them and this appears to be working also.
Then Kobae came out to help me clean the garage after he peed on the kitchen floor twice. What a treat.

First Hayduker

This is Josey. First Hayduker of the fall season. I'm thinking 2nd female hayduker that came through who said her dad named her Josie after Josie Wales.

Love Hiking with Jax

The Road is Sweet

Took Jax to town to get a haircut and some supplies. On the way back ran across this. They aren't done but it's already pretty good.

The Sign

The Base Camp sign has been lying on the ground since a wind storm blew it over last month while I tried to figure out how to get it back in the ground which is mostly all rock. When Dalton was here last month he said "Why don't you just haul that old truck out there and attach it to the truck?" Then he checked out and I'm the only one here. Last week Ginger and Doug checked in and I told Doug about Dalton's idea and he said "I'll help you. I got a big truck to town the old Ford 250 out there and a Can Am Defender with a winch to haul the sign." So.
Over the years I've had an occasional guest say they missed the sign at the turn. Those days are over.
