Re: [RC] [RC] Married couples in endurance - Barbara McCrary
Yes! Only my nap is with my adorable cat, who
likes nothing better than snuggling in the crook of my arm as I am lying in
front of a nice crackling fire in the fireplace.
I find this observation incredible.
Imagine a woman who cannot get dirty, muss her hair, break a fingernail
or must be waited on.
After I get through working cattle, imagine
the mess...and it isn't all just dirt. :-))
I figure I don't care how messy I get, as
long as I can take a bath and get clean afterwards. It's a sad
commentary on our lives today. Such women would never make it from the
Midwest to California on a wagon. A little dirt and discomfort is
good for us...makes us appreciate the conveniences we do have.

I agree! One of the best feelings in life is to go out riding in
the rain and mud..or even digging ditches around your barn in the worst storm
of the year...get totally drenched and cold, filthy and shivery...then come
inside to a hot shower and bowl of stew or soup.....and a nap with my pug is
the icing on the cake!
