These are those hard working men who volunteered their Friday morning at our Youth Ranch-- Marvin (holding Grant), Doug, Kirk, John, Rick, and Gary. The handsome guy on the end is,of course, Cowboy Max. Did you notice the rat-like creature running across the bottom of the picture? I'll show you a close up later. 
Those hard working men were at the Ranch to install this beautiful, shiny roof. This beautiful, shiny roof was graciously donated by Dan Applegarth and Crego Roofing. 
Max met Dan at our last Second Saturday work day. While Dan was slaving away moving huge amounts of lumber, he saw the metal pieces that were going to be used for our horse shelters. He told Max not to use those--he would donate two brand new roofs! I know this is not a Thankful Thursday post, but we're so very thankful!
Do you think Dan sounds really, really nice? What if I told you he also donated three saddles and an assortment of tack!
If you happen to be at Crego's for any roofing needs, please give them a big hug for us!
Thank you hard working men for installing our beautiful, shiny roofs. Oh, and while we're being thankful, thank you Doug Henry for donating a BBQ grill and a picnic table to us. Just another example of amazing generosity! Doug told me that he saw them in his backyard and thought, "I think I'll take those out to the Youth Ranch." Wow! 
Too bad I didn't take any assembled pictures of his gifts.
OK, now back to the rat-like creature. Here she is--the only Chihuahua I have ever liked.
Chiquita
I might go as far to say that I really like her. She is so sweet, she never barks, and she lets any of the kids pet her and pick her up. Who knew Chihuahuas could be so lovely?
See. She doesn't just hang out with her owners, Marvin, Taylor, and Dalton.
She knows a good cowboy when she sees one. Chiquita's welcome back any time.

She's cute. And wow, you sure are lucky to have such great people donating their time and money! And those kids who have the chance to spend time at GGYR will be even more fortunate! Keep up the good work.
I had a dog named Chiquita once. She raised me. Mark says she wasn't a real dog, but I can't spell ch..iwawa!!! She was black and teenie, tiny and when Mark started courting me she did not like it, hence why he didn't like her!!!In fact, if she had been younger he probably wouldn't have married me, but as it was she could only gum him. LOL
