Small ice floes are floating on the river surface but the water is boiling vigorously out from under the ice mass near the pump house. Evidently it's melting from underneath and will make its way peacefully - and - downriver. The whole frozen mass piecefully seems to be sagging where the current flows, and I have every hope that I will not be reduced to bathing out of a bucket anytime soon. I've been staying on high ground recently, until today, ever since that river and I had a confrontation which annoyed me considerably. "Little old bit of mud isn't going to stop me," I had said to myself, as I started on my usual river road walk.

Imagine my surprise when a patch of collapsed under boot and my dumped me into icy water! I wasn't frightened as I was sure the river would spit me right out again, but as half of me sank I pitched forward into the mud of the road. I used those words that cannot be printed in a family newspaper and the river relinquished my foot without protest although it kept attempting to retain my boot. Today, I stood on the last patch of semi-drground low before the spot and just watched Myron Benally and Lorenzo Allen plop along up river to the even lower stretch where they were assisting Bill Sutherland and Gaylon Headley in their attempt to repossess ice-sno- w y two oil wells and Risen- hoover's truck. Later Headley reported, "Bill (Sutherland) hooked onto Luther's truck with his four wheel drive tractor and dragged it backwards onto higher ground.

And Maxie Black was in from his place near Poncho House to buy slab lumber to build a shelter for newborn lambs. "They'll die if we don't fix a place for them," he said. In fact everything is so discouraging here that Sharon Lund, Jim Harvey, and I watched a helicopter hover near the river the other night, wondering who was coming in to report on our plight. We were considerably surprised then Mike Tonge at the San Juan Inn said, "Aw, they just sat down to get a room for the night here. Dynamic Aviation from Vernal doing something for the State Department of Wildlife. They're counting big horn sheep upriver and taking pictures of birds." How fortuwe are wonderfully nate - how blessed here with our small dramas of mud and ice and sheep to be fed.
