More rain. Snow predicted tomorrow. A day spent babysitting… Last chance for questions for my next Q&A… post ’em now!

A Wonderful, Beautiful Thing
It has been raining here… a wonderful, beautiful thing! When you live in such an arid climate, rain is a thing to be celebrated! Of course, there are plenty of people who are whining, plans ruined, more work, and I understand… but to listen to the earth drink in the raindrops, to hear plinks on…
Ben’s Pics
Before I forget… which I have the past few days… it’s time for another Q&A. Just post a question in the comment section and I’ll try to answer them soon. **** Well, more garden is in the ground, straw is hauled for baby chicks (though the coop isn’t really cleaned yet!), lawn mower is repaired…
Mountain Meadow Wool
I arrived home this evening, having to abandon Victoria and the boys to get some work done around here before I have to work Wednesday and Thursday. On my way through Buffalo… I didn’t stop at any antique stores or hardware stores but I did finally accomplish something I’ve been wanting to do for a…
Goin’ Broody
Well, I’m pretty sure Dally is going to have pups… She’s acting so Very Pregnant… But that’s still three weeks away or so… and there’s other babies coming, hopefully, before that! Meet my two broody hens. These are two from my last year’s hatchery bought chicks. I only have six left… Three are Buff Rocks…
Big Grin
On my way over the mountain to Kaycee, I stopped and had the opportunity to photograph a neighbor’s branding. It isn’t often that I get to crash a branding and not have a job! There was plenty of help, including two familiar faces. Daniel and the black horse were working quite well together… Remember, Daniel’s…
Deadline
Nothing like a deadline to kick me into gear! I’ll be heading back to help Victoria some more with baby Matthew, so I had to get stuff done around here. I did manage to do a fair amount, though, as usual… never as much as I thought I could do! My yard is raked again…
Heart Dog
Well, between helping Victoria with new little Matthew over in Kaycee, and working at the library, there’s not been much “ranchlife” to write about. Not that the guys aren’t going crazy doing the normal hectic springtime work, but I just haven’t been a part of it. I’ve put you off the past few days with…
Spring Beauty
I hope you can bear with me for another Wyoming wildflower… It’s crazy busy here… Spring Beauties… known for blooming just as snowdrifts recede from above their heads! Also, their little corms are edible, I’ve baked them in foil in some coals… very much like a baked potato – but tinier! P.S. Happy First Birthday…
Yellow Belle
A full skirt ready to spin and twirl and dance the night away… The yellow “belle” of springtime.
