    Another Great picture! I can see what you mean about it hunkering down.

    Regarding your last posts... over 70 readers sounds like a high number to me. Also "pride comes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall." (you can slap me now... lol) I wonder if your readership is counted if one has it on Google Reader, or the like. I have you on my reader, and don't always click over here.

      Della, I know... I should be grateful... and it wasn't that long ago that I would have been thrilled at 70... how fast we get spoiled!  Thanks for correcting the quote... I knew I should have double checked that!

      Sandy, no one has lived there in 28 years!  We had a hired man who stayed there a while, but there's just a bed and old stove in there.  The building is divided in half and the other half was the old blacksmith shop.  I've talked about renting it... but I'm a lone voice in the prairie!

    Dang. They tell me we are to be a warmer dry winter. Good for the cattle, sad for the rancher. Please, oh please can I come visit you.

    Oh Carol, My artsy, fartsy side would be in overdrive if I lived in WY. That is a beautiful picture. I am so glad to have found your blog. My heart sings when I see you photographs, fossils, dogs, bathroom projects, etc. etc. etc. Thanks for another beautiful post.

    I love that picture. Reminds me of my grandmother's place in Big Horn when I was a child. The antlers, the log cabin, the snow. Love it.

      Better be good at chopping wood!  It's just one room and tiny... the dogs could keep you warm!

      Marilyn, it only has a sod roof... so doesn't really qualify as a soddie... but it appears in the first photos we have of this place... 1909.  It might have been built by the previous owner, I'm not sure.

    What a great little bunkhouse! I'd love to see pics of the inside, too... hint, hint. LOL We're going to build a small dry cabin next year so I'm looking for small space inspiration ideas anywhere.

      Krystal... ish.  It's a tad bit DIRTY on the inside... and it has plumbing stuff stored in there... It's just a square plain room with faded curtains and nothing too cool... now if they'd let me have a go at it... I could turn it around FAST!

        Your description was good enough without a pic. Thanks! Oh, I could so have fun cleaning up the inside myself! LOL
