Heading back east.

Leaving the Teton Valley tomorrow afternoon. Got most of what I had planned to do done. The subcontractors were in and out finishing up their work and interrupted my schedule numerous times. Had one pair of pants and one shirt that I sacrificed to be my work clothes and wore them way too many times. I was just going to throw them out today, but my thriftiness took over and I ended up washing them. I was worried about them, afraid they would just spontaneously combust at any moment from all the chemicals they had absorbed.

Hate to leave the new dog here. I'm going to miss her as she has turned out to be such an affectionate gal. Hope she doesn't pine too much for me after I'm gone. She still requires being on a leash .... the running habit has not been broken yet.

It's a clear, cold night here. I can see every light in the valley and also every star in the sky.
