Update

We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and great holiday weekend. We "tip our hats" to anyone who dared the crowds on "Black Friday" for those tempting sales. :) We all enjoyed a nice, quiet Thanksgiving here at the ranch with wonderful weather. The kids were even able to go ice skating on the pond. Karen had a great time in Cleveland where she attended a Grand Opening of a new Orvis Store in Cleveland, Ohio. There was a large crowd all weekend long and she met some wonderful people and was able to spread the word about the ranch. The CDGRA convention also went well in Santa Fe. Dean and Karen had a great time visiting with fellow ranchers, learning more about what's to come and was able enjoy the great town of Santa Fe. We also have some new additions to the ranch....yet again. Tyler decided we needed some roosters among our chicken flock. So, we are now the proud owners of two, very exotic roosters. They were quite noisy when they first arrived providing their morning wake-up call, but have settled down now and are behaving themselves. :)
