Just have to share a few pics before it gets too late or I take more and never get a chance to share these… When I ride along with the guys, I will see a chance for a pic and never say anything… just because we would be stopping ALL THE TIME. Now, Vernon is…

#TBT: Way Back Wishes
While last week’s #tbt was a photo of my grandparents… I went back another step to my *great* grandfather shown seated in this photo. His name was Kennedy Underwood and he was a full blood Choctaw. Born around 1860 in Indian Territory, I know nothing much about him but his parents’ names (Pehlichi and Tennessee)…
Wordless Wednesday – “Morning Fog”
Morning Fog Puzzle
Washing Dishes
Time and warmth enough to finally take down my outside Christmas lights… It was horribly warm yesterday… 45˚. Now my house is surrounded by a snowy ice rink, where you take your life in your hands walking on my front sidewalk, out to the chicken coop, or simply climbing into your car. I *HATE* when…
Done
Unfortunately, I spent the day developing a closer relationship with my dentist. That led to me sitting on the couch this evening, vegetating and not being constructive in the least. I dialed in “For The Love of Spock”, a movie about Leonard Nimoy and his Star Trek character, Spock. Made by Adam Nimoy, it was…
Never Once
I was prepared to be cold today. All the ranches were going to do the final gather of the stock out in our allotment… which meant riding horseback and covering some country. But Tess called to volunteer… if I’d watch her kids… and Megan said she’d ride… if I’d watch her kids… so I was…
Afternoon Job
I went along with Vernon this afternoon. They’ve been turning cows into the home pastures the past few days… and noticed this young cow. She’s been feeling a tad bit “off”… humped up, not moving much… so we decided to go haul her in. Which precipitated a series of events… Unload the four wheeler from…
Those Elk
Three days in a row, those elk have been hanging out alongside the highway… I couldn’t help myself… just had to take more pics!
#TBT: Antlers Quartet
Well, I just can’t post old photos of the Greets… I have 50% of the genes around here! This is a great photo of the Antlers Quartet, a singing group in Antlers, Oklahoma composed of my grandfather, Victor Underwood (on the left), Bill Sossamon, my grandmother, Lila Underwood, and Jimmie C. Sossamon. The piano player…
Wordless Wednesday – “Morning Traffic”
Too snowy for a good pic! Snowy Spike
Happy Dance x 2
So, I may have mentioned or alluded to this in the past… but here it is today… IN PRINT! The Big News. I submitted a journal to Working Ranch Magazine… and it is in the January 2017 issue which arrived today! Yes, I was nervous… even though I had let my family read and change…
Repaired
Aha! Repaired it! Oh, *I* didn’t… GoDaddy did. Spent an hour on hold last night and the guy corrected the problem in about 30 seconds when he finally got on the phone with me. One of my plug-ins was weirding out and blocking my site. So he says, “Don’t activate it, just leave it.” What…
