What a couple of weeks at the Gizoo!  First - Whitney applied for a job in May of 2010.  They called her on June 13th to see if she was still interested and she went for an interview.  So after the interview, background check, etc. she went to work June 15th as a property manager at a rent controlled apartment complex here in Gillette.  The owners as well as the management company (her employer) met and trained her the remainder of that week. I told her I would watch the boys 4 days a week with Wednesdays off.  I mostly go to their apt so that going to "the bus" is still a big deal.  Other than one day it has been very good.  They will stay at their present location until October.  Their 6 month lease is up then.  If it is still going good they will move into the manager's apt.  In the meantime they compensate her in money for the housing.  It is part time.  She seems to like it so far and they are very happy with her even with a couple of glitches that might come back to bite someone in the butt.  Oh well.

Then Kev's new SnapOn truck is not ready so all schedules have been modified.  It was time to landscape, etc.  So Saturday morning it was all hands on deck.  Move the bus 30'; rearrange the gravel, hook onto shed move it south, make a sidewalk around the west side of the house, go to Keyhole to picnic, land somewhere for the fireworks.  Well here is a small scenario of the weekend:    















Notice the clear sky?




























And then the wind, clouds and thunder came.....

  OK let's head south and west to Pine Haven.....


No - we're catching up to the hail - Halt! Halt!.







We came from over there 20 minutes ago.  Spit!  It's gonna rain/hail/blow and the fireworks don't start for 3 hours.  Home we go!

And at Gillette there has been NO weather and they have worked their butts off.  So much so they are out of material.  Awww!  Too bad.  We have Sunday/Monday with nothing to do.  Yeah right!


















 So Uncle Erick will teach the boys about the Bobcat.  Gotta start them small ya'know?
