TY Jim & Sharon

Many thanks to Jim and Sharon for loving and taking care of our girl while we were in Vegas.  They really didn't want us to pick her up.  So blessed to have people that love our girl so much. And yes, we call Bella Little Sharon.   

In n Out

A delayed flight gave us a morning to tool around and have our first ever In-n-Out Burger.  Yep, will do that again.  So ready to go home but it's been a great Vegas week.
 

Pinkbox Doughnuts

I think "go to Pinkbox in Vegas" is something like "when in Rome do as the Romans."  But in this case it was great advice.
 

Dinner, Fountain, Casino

What else would you do after a long day on the floor?

Here and There

Yep, I was back at Peppermill to start the second official day of NFDA.  Meanwhile, Bella was helping Matt and Kelli at their farm.  This girl is living her best life while we convention.
 

NFDA 2023

An epic first day, Celebrating this Beautiful Life.

Big Breakfast, Big Set-Up

OK, this turning out to be a foodie convention. Had the best breakfast of my life at Peppermill. It was nice to connect with some of our former Bass-Mollett team. Now onto to the task of setting up the floor.

Bella on the Skid Steer

Imagine receiving a video of your daughter driving a skid steer for the first time.  I might be rethinking letting her stay with Jim and Sharon.  Bella did amazing! So proud of her.
 

Shin Lim

An unexpected treat, we finished early were able to score tickets to see card master, Shin Lim.  A great evening!

Resort World Las Vegas

Southwest to Las Vegas and Uber to the Resort World Conrad.  Then onto the best Italian dinner we've ever experienced - Piero's.   A great start to the national convention.  The real work starts tomorrow.
 

Sharon and Little Sharon

Meanwhile, Sharon and Isabella were shopping and farming together.  So happy their week is off to a great start as well.

Valley Work

Dennis came to the Ridge, he and Isabella worked Whiskey and Desert up and down the valley. They are having to get used to the steep walk down - the equines don't love it yet.  And of course, Emerald had to kiss on her man.  She and Dennis have something going on.
