Hi Glyn, thanks for another great video. Congratulations on finding new homes for all of the puppies. I'm sure after you get attached it is hard to let them go. Enjoyed hearing the stories from your Dad's Diary. Would not think your Dad would be one to keep a Diary but it is great to look back on and see what was written on a particular day. I hate to age myself, but I was born in 1965 so it is funny that is when he started his Diary. Can't imagine the struggle to drive on the narrow roads leading to Black Valley. It sure has a lot of natural beauty. Can imagine why it was the last area to get Electricity with how remote it is. I'm surprised the last house to get it was in 1978. Does your dad remember the year that they had electricity on the Ranch were he grew up?
