Posted on July 13, 2025July 13, 2025

I’m trying something new and thought I’d share. In my chicken coop, my nesting boxes are actually five gallon buckets. It’s a battle to keep straw in these buckets. Straw helps keep your eggs clean, plus it cushions them, because sometimes chickens are weird and they will lay standing up! But chickens being chickens, they…

Evening Gather

Posted on July 12, 2025July 12, 2025

An evening gather avoided the high heat of the day… though, by no means, was it cool. The glow of the setting sun made for neat highlights. As they dropped into the field, flies and mosquitoes were everywhere, making for lots of swishing tails and kicks at their bellies. Not everyone was convinced this was…

Throwback Thursday: Dig Deep, v.2.0

Posted on July 10, 2025July 10, 2025

This was first posted July 9, 2015. Today I helped out at Ten Sleep’s summer school!  They were going to one of my favorite places, Medicine Lodge State Park, just north of the town of Hyattville.  Their theme this summer is “Dig Deep”, so I got to talk archaeology!  This is the perfect spot for…

Wild Mountain

Posted on July 8, 2025July 8, 2025

After drawing blood to test for pregnancy, it was time for the heifers to go be on the cool mountain. We take them to a leased pasture by semi. Well, at least partway. We unload them from the semis, and then it’s time to trail them across and down to their new pasture. Vernon and…

Cooked

Posted on July 7, 2025July 7, 2025

After last week’s move of the cows to the Slope Pasture, the next day was to gather the heifers and pregnancy test them with a blood draw. I arrived late,thinking I was going to stack hay for the trailer to haul it out of the field. It looked like they were short handed, so I…

Can’t Complain

Posted on July 6, 2025July 6, 2025

With the holiday and work, I’m falling behind on my posts! After the parade, we strolled through the craft fair. Then we decided to try to eat at Deerhaven Lodge up on the mountain. Anything on the mountain sounds good when you avoid the heat down below! My sister and brother-in-law were keeping us company….

Fourth

Posted on July 4, 2025July 4, 2025

I hope you had a fantastic Fourth! We toured around the mountain with my sister and brother-in-law, seeing new country, some elk, and a grand patch of wild columbine, the largest I’ve ever seen. It’s gorgeous! Happy Independence Day!

Throwback Thursday: Collapse, v.2.0

Posted on July 3, 2025July 3, 2025

This was so fun and exhausting and TEN YEARS AGO! Collapse.  That’s what we finally did about 4 this afternoon… after zinging from the opening reception of the Wyoming Grasslands exhibit into final work on our float and supper with Craig and Judy Johnson at the Red Reflet Ranch yesterday and today’s early start to get those last minute details on…

Carol, Wyoming rancher

Since 2008, I’ve kept this photographic journal of life on our working Wyoming ranch.  I share ranch work, my family, crafts and DIY, my English Shepherds, Bravo and Indy, and a love for this land.  Enjoy this red dirt country!
