We paused for a picture overlooking the vineyards – after galloping around.

The deck is finally getting some badly needed attention. We have removed the old decking and will have to replace the beams and posts tomorrow. The new redwood is standing by.

After my visit in Arbuckle I decided to bypass the highway construction on I 5 and take the back road; past College City and East to highway 45 – south to Knights Landing and on to Woodland. The road was very good and there was hardly any traffic. It was MUCH nicer than the highway.

We picked up a barrel of “Stable Mix” from Lees’ Feed. There were many little chickens, ducks and geese out front – we wanted to take a few home – but refrained.

I had the opportunity to go to Arbuckle today, to visit with Mom and get a report about her Georgia trip and learn about the retreat. After doing a little tech support (computer, cell phone) we had a nice visit. She had me take the top down for our trip to the post office to pick up the mail and it was a perfect day for a top down ride. The ice plant in the front of the house was in full bloom. Mom said she left with the yard looking like winter and got home to a yard full of flowers – Spring had arrived.

The white pelicans were visiting the egrets at the Nature Conservancy (on the way to the ranch).

Our deck is showing signs of age, it didn’t weather very well. I will probably have to replace most of the top 2×6 redwood boards, each 20 feet long.
