A Welcome Cowboy

It seems like I'm always complaining about my work hours. I suppose that could be because I'm working more and having less play time. Since I took a week off, I'm now in the middle of playing catch up. My inbox is piled so high it's almost touching the hutch over my desk. I'm slowly chiseling my way through. Guess I'll be going in early again today. Seems one must always pay to play. 

I'm excited to show you this gem I found while driving down a newly explored country road. Why am I excited? Because we don't find many entrance gates around here.

That is a great find, especially to share here! Wow! It is good that you took that route. I hope you get caught up, now. Playing is important, but I feel your pain there. Hug.

That last photo hits the spot! No one ever filled in and did my work for me when I took vacation - there was always a pile of work waiting. I am so glad I am retired!

I like him against the fence! Don't work too hard. Going back to work after time off does seem like punishment, doesn't it?

Ida said...

Seems like a friendly chap! Neat gate entry.

You never know what you will find on a country road. You found a gem, I like it.

Love the guy on the gate

Hootin Anni said...

Oh, I like it! Very much.

And, may I ask, do I see a couple of pumpkins just on the other side of the entry gate?

I stopped emails altogether long ago since I started blogging. Just family now. I always put a bogus email address on my blog since I just don't have time to blog, visit with my commentors and check emails. Way too much time and then I don't have enough hours in the day to goof off. lol

Don't you hate when work gets in the way of fun? Hope you have chiseled your inbox down to a manageable level. Love that word 'chisel' btw. :) Awesome find on the gate!
