Time Lapse: Checking Cows
We checked cows and spread salt today… and I made my third time lapse video. It is very jumpy and too fast (even though I slowed it down) but I believe you will get the context of our day. I’ve only one more day to practice before the eclipse! Argh! NOTE: Vimeo failed to convert…
Wyoming Eclipse Weekend
It’s finally here! Wyoming is rolling out the red carpet for thousands of visitors for the solar eclipse on Monday. Every town has “something” going on… We aren’t in the totality, but we’ve seen an increase in traffic! Here, Ten Sleep Brewery has created a Blackout Porter for the occasion, though I didn’t try it,…
#TBT: A Load
This is quite the load of hay… No date.
Wordless Wednesday – “Jackpot”
Did I ever properly introduce you to Jackpot??? Jackpot Puzzle
Filtered
I keep seeing friends sharing photos that have been filtered through the Prisma app. I had to join in. My favorite (newest) photo of Brandon using different filters…
Second Time Lapse
Second time lapse. I was guessing at the direction and angle… since my GoPro doesn’t have a screen and it wouldn’t talk to my iPad, this is what I managed to capture. Although it’s not bad, I certainly would have framed it differently if I’d had an idea of what it was filming… More Sky!…
Fail/Fail
The countdown is continuing for the Total Solar Eclipse… One thing I wanted to do for it was have a time lapse of the landscape. That meant pulling out my sadly neglected GoPro and trying to figure it out AGAIN. It gave me nothing but frustration the first few times I’ve tried it, but it…
Gallivanting
While I was off gallivanting with other Wyoming librarians… my family was still working on the ranch… moving cattle this time! It was another exposure for the little boys to help ride and work. I think they loved it! (and I’m sorry I missed it) (photos shamelessly stolen from Megan and Tess)
Off the Ranch
I’ve spent the past couple of days off the ranch, attending the Wyoming Library Association’s conference in Sheridan. As usual, it was enjoyable in many ways. We stayed at Sheridan College, one of the seven community colleges in Wyoming. It has a very beautiful campus and an adorable “neighborhood” of “villas” for student housing. Each…
#TBT: Old House
A relative posted this the other day, and at first glance, I assumed it was the old house on our place. But things don’t work out… the porch is wrong, did the garden go all the way to the creek?… or am I just looking at this all wrong??? Someone help me figure this out! …
Wordless Wednesday – “Brushed Up”
**** Happy birthday, dear Brandon… I love you and all you have become… and you’re in this photo! 😉
