Wow, you know all of this by seeing her once and not liking her at all? They
actually have a beautiful lodge on the ranch where she cooks for family, as
well as a beautiful kitchen with modern appliances, oh...and running water

they still call it "roughing it." I think you're a tad envious actually.
