Hey Quick!
That's sounds like a pretty interesting job. I should have a pretty easy semester this time, if my neighbors keep their music and television to a reasonable sound level. It's very frustrating to try to study or sleep with someone else's music blaring. Yes I enjoy venison. My dad has always hunted so I grew up eating deer, elk, and the occasional bear. It's good stuff You said your nephew got a book on hickery machines, what are they? It is cold here also but we haven't had any precipitation for a while so that's good. The roads are still a bit icy, but other than that driving conditions are alright. Enjoy your day!
God bless!

hunter

Hello Emily, buckle your seat belts.
Your father would gladly meet my chief, he too is a hunter, but the only wild animals out here are foxes and deers. Last year he shot a wild boar and her filly. But anyway.
You are quite funny, a easy semester, I only got to graduate on our public school, with the lowest mark, a C. Hickery machines are a leveler or a traktor or a combine harvester.
Please excuse the words I use, but I have still much to learn about english.
A few years ago we use to grow potatoes on our little, little farm and the funniest was everyyear when we go through them with our pony. It was everyyear a hard work for the pony, but it was in good, very good shape so that he was not much tired after it.
Today, it is occasionally icy again, at my job it snowed a few hours. nBut as soon as the snow hit's the ground, it was melted away and it became black ice.
Here at home I had an enemy with the music as well, it was my cousin and he liked to listen to his music outside, from the car and god I hated it. But now he moved away and it becomed a bit boring here. Nobody repairs a car or a motorcycle or make some noise, it become like I ever wished, but it is a bit to boring for me.

So, I sign off

Quick

Hey Quick!
Ok I understand about the Hickery machines now. We just call them farming equipment. My dad has a tractor and a backhoe, but technically we're not farmers because we don't have any harvest crops other than the garden. We have some cattle, two horses, and some chickens, but they are just for family use.
Black ice is dangerous! Here in Pullman there are a lot of people from all over the states, different countries, and other places. It is rather frightening because most of them have never driven in snow or other such conditions and they don't know what they are doing.
At home my nearest neighbor is 1/2 a mile away so I am not used to hearing people around me. I was raised to always be courteous of people so it is very difficult for me to understand how some people could be so inconsiderate and play their music so loud.
Oh well, life goes on. Have an awesome day! God bless!

cattles


Hi Emily,
It sounds like our cardrivers when the winter begins, they don't have the wintertires on and then they lows the traffic badly.
You are lucky if you have no neighbours around to take care of or you could be disturbed by them.
What color did your horses have? Our 2 horses are brown and dark brown and the dark is a little scoundrel, cause everytime we go out with the brown he manage to go over the walls of his box, but this week the last time, cause my father have made some higher borders. My nephew always wants a few cattles, but my mom was against it but nevertheless he want still some.

Bye, bye

Quick

Hey Quick!
My horse is a red roan(its a rather brownish color) and my dad's horse is a buckskin (yellow). I have all weather tires on my car and I have front wheel drive so my car does pretty well in the snow and ice. Why does your nephew want cattle? My dad's horse used to run through barbed wire fences, we still don't know why he did it. Do you ride your horses often? I don't get to ride as much as I did when I lived at home, and that makes me sad.
Have an awesome day!
God bless!

hopeful

Hi Emily,
oddly I didn't ride the horses, even if I bought the last one, I couldn't trust them as I took a few lessons to learn it and I have seen so mans sick people that was falled from a horse and my bones not the resistable ones, they easy got split in two, so I don' dared to ride. But with the new horse, maybe if I have time for it. But now I have a busy schedule that makes it impossible. Did it snow alot where you live, means like more than 5 feet? The last years the snow is going always lesser from year to year. But we had terrible floodings in 2003 that many streets was damaged and we had to wait on the traffic lights, which really suck's. I'm really glad that this is over, but I hope that it will not happen again this year.

Bye

Quick
