Los Perales:
The chicas went to town the past two weeks finishing winter projects. Since spring is already here, they want to hurry before their kids grow out of their new winter wear.
Also, a new skirt and vest are almost complete.
Carina made another bag but only had a picture on her cell phone to show me. This is great news for her to have completed the project on her own.
Carina is also making a pink, spring, gathered skirt for Luisiana.
On the way back from Los Perales, we spotted this cute pony. We've seen him before, but didn't get a picture.
Galeano's were welcomed home by their vast number of pets. This is only a small portion of their numbers. Aren't they colorful!
We also noted this bird nest made of spines. Usually, the birds pick a post top to build their nest in place of a thin electrical wire.
The gauchos are always so friendly as they travel here and there. We're never quite sure their destination so to us it seems that they are everywhere.
The nest made of mud below was done so on a moving gate. We haven't traveled this part of the ranch for awhile...obviously, long enough for a bird nest to be constructed in a vulnerable spot.
Below is a picture of Gregg trying to discourage dozens of cows from monopolizing the road. Now you know why there are so many cow pies in our way.
They are often quite suspicious of us.
More stares...
Still working on clearing the road
Often, we see mother and new born calf huddled together. Occasionally, we see a mother butting her youngin' off the road but usually, the babies follow their mother closely. Mother below is making sure we stay away from her baby.
Ixsi is doing awesome on the piano. Gregg is hopeful that she can start playing hymns for sacrament meeting when we leave next month.
Note the blooming bush in the back ground. (We're not very good at selfies yet.)
