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…
Paint Project
Fall is definitely in the air… nights are cool enough that my window fan is TOO cool by morning, hence another blanket on the bed. September will be a busy month, cow work is coming up, my annual trip to the Wyoming Library Association meeting in Cheyenne, plus a fun day or two planned as…
Labor Day Weekend
While the Labor Day weekend has been full of company and activities, most pics have been of the grandkids whose photos I can’t post! There’s wading in the creek and sweeping “roads” in the dust on the shop’s concrete floor. There’s riding in the Rhino and fighting with your brother. There’s riding on the Row…
Something in the Air
And, thankfully, tonight it’s NOT smoke…
