Sorry, I missed last night. The internet has been painfully slow and spotty. I even had a hard time texting and that’s the simplest thing to do… I just got fed up fighting it and went to bed!
I expected to be on horseback this morning. The guys gathered the badlands pasture yesterday (while I worked at the library) and did such a good job by gathering EVERY cow, we didn’t need to ride again. That kinda bummed me out, I needed new photos to post! Plus the fact that it was a nice day… and, you know, I like to ride!
I filled my day with housework, painting the local basketball schedule on a local business window, and attending a basketball game.
Nothing great nor wonderful to post about today… but here it is coming up on my 8th, EIGHTH!, blogoversary! Yeah. January 20th of 2008 was my first post! It was a simple disclaimer, so the 21st is the day I really should count. Read that post here.
To celebrate, I declare a contest!
Post your name or a comment in the comment section and you’ll have a chance to win a 2016 Red Dirt In My Soul calendar. From now until my January 21st post, you can enter once a day. Tell your friends!
Let's Socialize...
I think I have been reading and following your blog just about since you began–hard to believe it has been 8 years already.I first found out about your blog from the Daily Coyote blog. I do really enjoy your blog and living your life vicariously also. Thank you, my blog friend!
Carol, I do so love reading about your ranchlife. I think I need one of your calendars!!!
Take care.
This suburban gal loves living the ranching life vicariously!
I am a newer reader, but so enjoy your faithful blogging. Since I travel through Ten Sleep often, I think of you enviously. Congratulations on eight years!
Carol, you are a wonderful voice for the ranching industry! Thanks!
Enjoy reading about your life.
Love your blog!
Well done on your eight years of blogging. Yep, digital stuff is here to test our patience.
Congrats! And by the way…my keyboard is working tonight 🙂
Eight years…that’s a lot of blood, sweat and tears!
Eight years is a lot of years of blogging!
love seeing the red dirt and life with cows and grandkids keep on blogging
