This was first written and posted December 18, 2009 First of all, here’s the photo of the young golden eagle from yesterday. My camera was left in the car and I was too lazy to walk out in the cold and retrieve it last night. I just hope he remains intimidated by all my…

If Wishes Were Horses… v.2.0
FIRST PUBLISHED: JUNE 25, 2009 Although my wish for the day would have been to attend a stockdog clinic… in Pavillion, Wyoming (2.5 hours away) from Elvin Kopp (his website is here)… instead we took half our cows to our mesa pasture. When I first heard about the clinic, I knew the date would…
#TBT: Repost : A Good Day
I was scrolling through some old posts of mine… this one is from November 30, 2009! I enjoyed it, thought you might as well… The crisp morning crept slowly out of the darkness. Sparkling glitter cast by Jack Frost caught the tepid rays of the early morning sun except for the creekbottom. It would be…
#TBT: Sex in the Country, Revisited
So, it’s been quiet and just “different” without Dally around. As her Guard Dog position warranted, she was Number One Barker to alert me when anyone drove by… even Brandon… six times a day… Lucas and Eden are MUCH quieter without her. You think you see her… running along the fence… sneaking behind the couch…

Wordless Wednesday – “Waiting and Watching”
Covered in mud from a boggy seep, this is Dally’s version of “Go Lay Down”.
Adventure Dog
Every day is a New Adventure. I heard barking. I whistled. Lucas looked at me and followed me to the chicken coop, but the girls were AWOL. I fed and watered the chickens, still hearing barking in the distance. It sounded like they were in the brush patch below Brandon’s house. Who knows? Skunk? Coon? …
Accomplished That
The snowstorm only dropped a soft 6″ on us…and it kept snowing all day! Craig Johnson was nice enough to let us know he arrived home safely across Powder River Pass after the Silent Auction last night. We were nervous! I enjoyed a fire in my old Round Oak stove most of the day… it…
Neverfail
No such luck on the night time lapse on my GoPro… TOO DARK! I’ll have to figure that out… Took time lapses on the mountain today, but I’m still recharging the camera, so I’m not sure if they worked. I CANNOT see the display without my reading glasses, so it’s so frustrating if I want…
FAIL
We were home and finished by 6:30 today. Amazing. And Vernon cooked a frozen pizza. Yay! I fell asleep on the couch for a bit, then woke up to lock up my chickens and feed the dogs. Sidenote from cattle moving: I fail at animal husbandry. I started with two broody hens and about 20…
