BevLive: a good dress rehearsal

Good practice day. Nothing like working a flock of hair sheep over familiar ground to build confidence. Had a very nice morning practice at Stormy's. Everyone very good. Hemp managed a big blind outrun with only one mistake. Mirk and Esther were perfect in everything I tried. Very heartening, we must be getting ready to bomb big.

Bringing in the sheep for practice.

A hot summer day on the plains. Good for reading and camper cleaning. Pat cooked another fabulous meal for supper. I thought Amanda was the perfect hostess, but Pat and Stormy are giving her some serious competition for best Canadian hosts. I'm coming to think great hospitality must be a national characteristic. I'll be sorry to leave tomorrow–I sure have been well treated here.
