Finally. Rain. Lots of it. An inch and a half as of this writing… which is great moisture for a dry steppe country like Wyoming. Rain days are vacation days for ranchers… go to town on a rainy day, and you’ll see your neighbors. We were going to be prepping for preg testing on Saturday……

Wordless Wednesday – “Mountain Blues”

A Little Wet
We will be weaning tomorrow… and in preparation, we water down the corrals. Dust can be your enemy when calves, already stressed from leaving their mothers, breathe all that dust into their lungs. They can easily get sick… and, possibly, die. This time of year, especially this year… Wyoming *is* Dust. The corrals at home…
The Big Tipi
Another adventure… This time to Lost Cabin, Wyoming for a tour of The Big Tipi, aka J.B. Okie’s mansion. Known as the Sheep King of Central Wyoming, he was an intelligent businessman with big plans.

Chickies
A few pics to make you grin… They’re sure growing!
That Barn Again

#TBT: Sex in the Country, Revisited

As her Guard Dog position warranted, she was Number One Barker to alert me when anyone drove by… even Brandon… six times a day… Lucas and Eden are MUCH quieter without her. You think you see her… running along the fence… sneaking behind the couch…

Dancing Man Cave
A holiday. Like a REAL holiday on an ACTUAL holiday! Wooohooo! Thanks to the arrival of Vernon’s sister and brother-in-law from California, and Victoria, et al, from Kaycee… we took a real day off (ok, so there WAS some irrigating involved) and revisited a site we must have visited about 28 years ago… Yeah, my…
