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.

Slooooow
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…
#TBT: Old School

Meanwhile…
Well, after all that celebrating… Let’s check into what’s been happening on the ranch… Our last snowstorm dropped a nice amount of snow… between 9″-10″… Which was great in one respect. There was enough snow, that when you walked in it, it didn’t compress down enough to hit that layer of ice on the bottom…
#TBT: Stationery
Johnny has loaned me a box of old letters, and I’m just beginning to sift through the crispy paper decoratively topped by the fading ink of fountain pens and three cent stamps.

Dragon’s Breath
Favorite Videos
Let’s carry on with the ten year celebration with a look at videos. I post all of my videos over on vimeo.com instead of youtube. Yes, I know, people always go to youtube, but I like the quality of videos on vimeo. 159 videos of dogs, cattle, bees, scenery, brandings, Longmire Days, solar eclipse, time…
