We paused today to celebrate the life of George Edgar Greet, Vernon’s uncle. At almost 103 years young, he was an institution around here. As the preacher said today, “Greets were in this country when they delivered the (red) dirt.” (I added the “red”.) Although we are saddened at his passing, what better life than…

Greeley Hat Works – #Hatisfaction
So, Vernon comes home for lunch yesterday and says, “Let’s go get your hat!” “Now? Like, RIGHT NOW?” “Unless you don’t want to…” Carol knows the weather and roads are nice. Carol knows calving season will start NEXT WEEK. Carol knows VERNON DOESN’T GO ANYWHERE during calving season. Carol is a smart girl. I throw…
Road Trip
Vernon and I are on our way to Greeley to pick up my custom cowboy hat! I didn’t accomplish anything but sitting on my rear in the car… I was amazed that while there’s still snow around Ten Sleep, there was NOTHING on the other side of the mountain! Hopefully, pretty pics of me coming…
Ice Jam
Ice jam should be a blue, delicious, jelly… lightly tasting of cool mint, vanilla, and chocolate. Spread on a cracker with cream cheese, it would be a delight! Unfortunately, that is *NOT* what ice jam means. An ice jam is when ice is broken out of a river due to warming weather or melted runoff…
Doin’ Her Thing
My journaling class was a success… I think my 12 attendees had a good time. That’s about all we can fit into our little room at tables, so it was perfect! It’s continuing to melt RAPIDLY around here. Fifty degrees will do that! Every little depression or draw is now home to a river of…

Questions and Answers – February 2017 Edition
Steph: I was wondering if you use the same veterinarian for both large and small animals. Yes, we do. We’ve used The Good Doctor for many, many years… with occasional visits to others as needed, depending on the situation. Most of the vets around here handle both large and small animals. Irmgard: Carol, since some…
Not For Everyone
Holy chinook, Batman! We’ve had a warm wind blowing and all our snow is now slush… or ice. Bleh. That’s Bleh with a capital H. Poor Brandon’s got a black eye from falling into a metal gate while graining the calves. He was carrying buckets of grain and couldn’t catch himself. He could have probably…

Quiet Evening
Our evenings are pretty quiet around here… a little tv, a little crafting, a little reading, maybe some snoring… but our doorbell rang tonight. A neighbor girl stopped in to tell us she had just seen a mountain lion on the highway a few miles up the road by our other place. She said it…
