Mystery in the Chicken Coop Conclusion… or is it?

Posted on February 14, 2018February 14, 2018

Gee. It sounds like NO ONE LIKES CLIFFHANGERS! I will tell you the conclusion to the mystery, but, first, this commercial interruption… Although I usually write my blogs at night to post the next morning, sometimes that plays havoc with dates… like when you get Wordless Wednesdays on Thursday… this post will come out on…

Saga of the Video of the Mystery in the Chicken Coop!

Posted on February 13, 2018February 12, 2018

Did you ever play Clue?  The game where you had to choose Miss Scarlett or Colonel Mustard in the Library or the Conservatory (as a kid I never knew what a conservatory was… but it’s a greenhouse attached to a building along one wall… just in case you never knew either!  But I did like…

Mystery

Posted on February 12, 2018

I know who did it. I have it on film. For four hours now, I have been fighting with my GoPro to be able to share it with you. This could be the first time I actually cuss on this blog. I’m frustrated to no end, and if I had more of a temper and…

Frozen

Posted on February 11, 2018

It was a tad cool this morning, -7, so when I trudged out to the chicken coop to set up my GoPro, I also brought along a bottle of bubbles. I seem to always have some on hand these days… I wanted to try to freeze bubbles.  You see these things on the internet, you…

Awry

Posted on February 10, 2018

One of those days where plans go awry… We were headed to Cody for scheduled car repairs, but a winter storm blew in, so we made it as far as Worland!  We made the loop of “fun” places to go… the BLM, the accountant, the bank, and the vet, before turning for home. Sometimes life…

#TBT: A Team

Posted on February 9, 2018February 8, 2018

When I first arrived at the ranch, oh, a Loooooong Time Ago… We used a team to feed cows in the winter.  During the summer, they lived a life of leisure. But one time, someone arranged a Team Pulling Contest down at the Ten Sleep Rodeo Grounds. Johnny took Buck and Booger down to compete….

Mystery In The Coop

Posted on February 7, 2018February 6, 2018

I do believe I have a dilemma.  I’ve been having a mystery in the chicken coop. There’s been an unidentified perpetrator destroying eggs.  The first suspects were the young roosters.  Over time, the circle of life dismissed the roosters from the suspect list.  That left the one young hen, as I didn’t think my tried…

Winter Storm

Posted on February 6, 2018

When you hit the highway and visibility is one and a half delineator posts… When the snowplow must be busy on the mountain because your highway is still unplowed… When your wheels throw up more snow on your rear window than your wiper can handle… When your top speed of 30 mph seems plenty fast……

Spoon Again

Posted on February 5, 2018February 4, 2018

More spoons ready to go. All with a western theme, no surprise. But then, inspiration came… And this guy appeared. With flames on the handle, and his eye on the front, I’ll be sorry to see this guy go.

Fermenting Chicken Feed

Posted on February 4, 2018

I’ve read about it for a while… and just started trying it with my chickens.  Fermenting their chicken feed. Translate that to just soaking their chicken feed, and you’ll take the scariness out of it. They tell you that fermenting your feed will increase the protein, or rather, let them get the full protein out…

Slooooow

Posted on February 3, 2018

It seems to be very slooooow around here of late… The guys are feeding cows in the morning, but with four guys spreading out the chores… It goes fairly fast and easy (barring breakdowns).  I remember it taking until almost lunch sometimes back in the Way Back Times.  Maybe that’s like walking uphill both ways…
