Happy 4th! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
![]() There is an amazing book that we highly recommend, if you haven't read it yet. It is called The Harbinger, by Jonathan Cahn. Do yourself a favor this 4th of July and find it in your favorite bookstore. Walmart even carries it. We pray that God will continue to bless America!

Windy Pass Fire Complex ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
![]() Wolf Creek Pass reopened this past Saturday, with pilot cars escorting the traffic over. Many are worried about the affect the fires might have on tourism in our area. With Wolf Creek Pass opened up I hope folks are so curious to see the destruction that they will be anxious to come. In my mind it would be well worth the price of the gas to "take the tour" over the top, just to see what has happened. Don't forget that if you are wanting to visit Pagosa Springs this summer, we can offer outstanding rates on a condo at the Wyndham Resort. Just call or email with your selected dates, and the number of bedrooms needed.

Farmer's Market ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
![]() If you are in Pagosa Springs, please stop by and see us at the Ponderosa Lumber parking lot, Saturdays, from 9:00 to 1:00. And come hungry - I hear the burgers are great!

Greenhouse and Garden Update ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
![]() The garden is planted, the seeds have germinated, and the weeds are under control. I actually ate my first cherry tomato on Thursday, and of course, it was delicious. I have the water set up in four areas for automatic watering twice a day. It is awesome, and since we are using the irrigation water, I have plenty. We used straw to create walkways between the beds, and to also hold the weeds down. The entire garden is fenced off to predators - hopefully. Next month I hope to show you a picture with lots of large, green plants.

Lamb Shanks My Way ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Daniel R from Terrace Park, Ohio, sent us the following recipe:
Add olive oil to a heavy casserole with a lid and thoroughly brown the shanks on all sides. Remove and reserve shanks. Add onion and garlic and saute until transparent. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir while bringing to a boil. Add the shanks, cover, and put in a 350 degree oven for 2 hours. Serve with the lentils and a little sauce. Serves 4. Sounds yummy and I personally cannot wait to try it. Thanks so much, Daniel.
