One of our local historical “legends” was a man named “Bear George” McClellan. He lived not far from my house which means in his written stories, I can recognize many of the places he talks about. I was recently given copies of his obituary and remembrances of him. I also have copies of some of…
Throwback Thursday – Great Walk, v.2.0
This was first published January 17, 2015. After the normal routine of feeding cattle and chopping ice, the guys went snowmobiling for fun, and I decided on such a NICE sunny day, the dogs and I would head out for another shot at snowshoeing around the fields. It was much easier this time as I…

Winter Finally
It has definitely turned into winter finally. Small storms have been rolling through, dropping an inch or two and blowing the snow around. With the 15th approaching, that’s the deadline for our BLM allotment. We pay to use the grass until then but that’s dependent on weather and whether the grass isn’t covered by snow….

The war then commenced….
Throwback Whoops: Superhero
I was so excited about the grand opening of Ten Sleep School yesterday, I forgot it was Thursday. Here’s my Throwback Thursday post on Friday! This was first posted January 12, 2015. So, I wander from house to studio… Draw a little… Repair a chair… decide I need some great sandpaper to get those corners…
They Did It
I shared photos of the new Ten Sleep School a while back. Well, the Grand Opening was tonight. Students gave us tour information. The students made and served us hors d’oeuvres. The town turned out to see everything. Classrooms are set up and in use. The gym is ready for our first game tomorrow… they…
Wordless Wednesday: Hillside
For a jigsaw puzzle of this snowy hillside, go HERE. Let me know if this is a challenge!
Thanks
My last trip to the physical therapist was today. Whoop, whoop! The guys at Worland Fyzical are amazing. I’ve gone from using a wheelchair to a walker to a cane to nothing. I’ve relearned how to walk without a limp, (who knew your brain keeps telling you to limp even if you don’t have to?)…
Such Fun
Who knew that taking down my outdoor greenery before the snowstorm could be such fun?
Kinda Cool
I had vague plans of teaching the young girls a craft over Christmas holiday. It never worked out. No biggee. But I was prepared. They know how to crochet, but often just create long snakes. I had a plan to teach them how to make a hot pad or placemat. I just finally finished a…
