Believe it or not, they’re predicting snow in the western Wyoming mountains and in the high reaches of the Big Horn Mountains tonight. We’d be very happy with Cooler and Just Rain… but Wyoming wants to give us snow! Off to your questions… Pam: Approximately how many acres do you work on your ranch? When…

Zoom
While we all tend to think of the word, Zoom, just a bit differently nowadays, ( hey, I attended a Zoom conference just this afternoon!), I was going to share something using the old definition. I stumbled across this photo again, and marveled at it. It’s easily recognizable as our place due to that gunsight…
Re-Red: May 31 – June 6, 2020
Another week in review! These Re-Red videos are pretty popular, and I hope you’re sharing them with your friends. This week had plenty of riding and moving cattle… and I left some music out of some parts so you could enjoy the bird song and saddle leather.
Hay
While I mow lawn and work in my garden, the guys are busy putting up hay. They started in the fields around my house, which is always very appreciated due to my grass allergies. I’ve often wished I could go somewhere for the month of June and return after the pollen has blown away… which…
Ick
Living in the country seems idyllic. I mean, great views, wide open spaces, fresh air, what’s not to like? Well… For me… I think the thing that grosses me out the most… are those wonderful little things called miller moths. Right now, my house has a pleasantly intense infestation. That means that at night, when…
#TBT: Dogs in Heaven, v.2.0
This was first posted June 18, 2009. I would never presume to understand a dog. I want to. I read books by educated people and scientists and behaviorists and I try to. The closest I’ve been is the other day… for a short period of time, at least. I watched five dogs on the mountain…
Wordless Wednesday: “Red Dirt Home”
For a jigsaw puzzle of this photo, go HERE. **** Any more questions? I’ll answer them in a few days…
Watch Him
It was time to gather the Joe Henry. This grazing allotment is named after the original homesteader that the Greets bought out in 1909. We run with one other rancher in this allotment, and since he runs Hereford cattle instead of Angus, like us, it’s very easy to separate the herds. Bravo got to go…
Moovin’
…and I’m tired. Please post more questions for the upcoming Q & A…
Re-Red: May 24 – 30, 2020
The week in review including the new lease and its homestead and red canyons, Daniel’s birthday party, spectacular wildflowers, outtakes from Lacee’s birthday photos, kit fox, helicopter spraying, and baby chicks! Post any questions you might have for the next Q&A!
Happy Sixth
We hoped it would rain today, but the shower that did finally go over us only dropped .04”. These random rain showers are hit or miss. So far, we still qualify for “miss” status. This evening we celebrated Lacee’s sixth birthday even though it was actually a few days ago. Last week I took her…
So Much
There has been *so much* going on… We did four solid days of riding. I rode on two of the days and babysat the other two. Bravo went the first day and Eden the second. We were all pretty tired… the kids as well, since they either got up early to go to another house,…
