He might take off on a short run, chasing those irritating and noisy prairie dogs. But he’ll always keep an eye on me. When I move my CanAm, he’s there to jump in the back, ready to be by my side for any adventure. He’s patient. Well done, Bravo.

Assistance
We helped Daniel a bit with his huge project. Others chipped in some time as well. Daniel is installing a pivot, with an amazing array of pipe and angle iron and other pieces and 50,000 bolts and nuts. Jaxon had a pretty good grasp of what went where and how… and though we all managed…
Birds
Birds of all kinds have started to reappear…
Throwback Thursday: Ten Things You Don’t Know About: Honey Bees
This was first published March 24, 2015. 1. First of all, and this is the one I want you to know for sure… Although there are 4,000 (!) species of bees in North America, the honey bee is NOT native to North America. Some list the date of 1622 for honey bees’ first arrival in…

Fair Projects
This year’s extra fair projects have arrived. Two lambs each for Jaxon and Lacee. One pig each for Quinlan and Lorelei. It’s going to be “fairly” busy around here…
Calving Video
The first video I’ve made in a long time! 875 was kind enough to let me film her calving, keeping the important bits aimed my way. She’s a good momma!
Busy
Brandon and Quinlan were kept busy tagging the 18 calves that were born yesterday. There were 18 born again today, so tomorrow will be busy too.
Throwback Thursday: Still Cook, v.2.0
This was first published March 18, 2015. Sometimes having all these outbuildings is a blessing… and sometimes a curse. It means you have room to store STUFF, which means you have a tendency to store STUFF. Honestly, I’m not too ashamed (most of the time) to dig out some old toys for my grandkids instead…
