I seems hard to believe that we have been here for two weeks - time really does fly, especially when you are busy. We had another busy day at the store: 108 customers and $560 in sales. For a small store, they certainly do a lot of business. We had an older woman come in yesterday just after we opened. She donated two beautiful saddles that she said didn't fit her horse any longer (not being a horse person, I'm not sure how that happens). Everyone who came in today stopped to admire the saddles, but only one person seemed very interested and he didn't have enough money to buy them. Dave, Rhonda, and Kim went out to do a pick-up. They came back with a side-by-side fridge, 4 sets of Pella sliding glass doors, a glass shower door, 2 sets of swinging "saloon" doors, and various other items, most of which were heavy. They were all pooped when they came back. We unloaded and priced everything and Rhonda called someone on the wish list who was looking for a fridge so hopefully we can move that out tomorrow. After work Dave and I went out to the wildlife refuge (Louise was going to come too, but she got slammed with patients this afternoon) to look for cranes. We saw mule deer, a variety of ducks and geese. Apparently, we were too early as we saw hundreds of cranes, but none were landing. If you squint at the picture you can see one of the groups that flew overhead. We would have stayed longer as people say that they tend to settle as dusk approaches, but Dave was really tired so we came home and decided we would go again with Louise this weekend. It was in the mid 50's this afternoon, but extremely windy - we ran over some blowing tumbleweeds with the car.
