A few more pics from Preg Test Day… just for enjoyment! Is Daniel looking at me? If he is… what’s he thinking??? Maybe I don’t want to know! This is the “just get it over with, Doc!” look. I may have had this look on MY face a time or two! This looks like an…

Preg Test Day
PREG TEST DAY. It’s an institution around here… There’s no getting sick or missing this day because something else is going on! It’s like gathering in the badlands, or sale day, or shipping day. It’s the day so many things come together. If a cow isn’t pregnant… she will be sold. So… did the bulls…
Sunset Horse
Everyone else is in bed before 10 pm… here I am… trying to pick up the last of the food and trying to wipe the glaze from my eyes so I can blog. I didn’t really “work” today, all I did was handle the food and rotate through the grandsons, alternately entertaining them and putting…
ReShare
Tomorrow is our big preg testing day… I’ve spent the day cooking, cleaning, and trying to figure out my computer! Apple has done away with iPhoto, and replaced it with just Photo… but my photo library is SOOOOO big, after a long time, it was determined I needed to buy a new external harddrive to…
Stock Drives
Everyone seems to be busy, neighbors near and far are gathering cattle, moving them, weaning, and/or pregnancy testing them! That means multiple big semi cattle trucks driving by and then back again… various herds on the road and highway… and it’s the perfect time to share some tidbits about stock drives. I’m guessing here, but…
Weaning
The sunshine met us early this morning. This jaunt revealed no elk this time around… although I heard one way off in the distance… and at one point their musky odor surrounded me… I continued through my favorite aspen patch… only a few leaves are golden yellow… Although the calves didn’t realize it, this was…
Birthday
A little house painting… a little cleaning… A little birthday cake! Yup, the oldest grandson turned four today. FOUR. Pretty amazing. There’s ranchwork to come tomorrow, but today please indulge me with cute grandkid photos! The birthday boy, Quinlan. Jaxon… trying to put Quinlan’s new ambulance in his pocket so he can ride the trike….
65 Years Difference
Since I went past this Friday, I thought I’d share… Powder River Pass, September 2015… Powder River Pass, 1950. I just get such a kick out of these old photos… still!
Born In A Barn Again
Sorry about the late night and uncooperative computer last night… it was one of those my-eyes-are-slamming-shut-and-what-IS-my-computer’s-problem? nights. The elk are busy bugling in our field tonight… would love to put that on Periscope… I wonder if people would listen without being able to see them… I don’t know what a spot light would do to…
Longmire
Another day of library work… nothing too special there. But today was the premiere of Season Four of my favorite television show on Netflix, and I just had to watch tonight! If you’ve followed me very long, you know I’m a fan of Craig Johnson who writes the Walt Longmire book series. I tried to…
