Holy cow, it’s been HOT lately. The country is dry and red flag warnings are being issued by the National Weather Service. That means FIRE DANGER is EXTREMELY HIGH. They had one fire a couple of days ago, and we’re hoping to dodge the bullet with others that may come our way! Even my bees…

Longmire Days 2014
Here it is! I only attended Sunday afternoon at Longmire Days… the big humongous crowd had thinned out… it was HOT… and I was very content to sit in Crazy Woman Square and finish my zentangle! A visit with Toria, Matt, and the twins broke up the time… but finally, it was 5 pm and…
Longmire Sunset
Doggone it! Spent too much time figuring out the new upgrade to iMovie… and now it will take too long to process, upload, and embed here. So… rats. No Longmire movie tonight. I’m *not* staying up another hour… Instead of posting this for Wordless Wednesday, I guess you get it tonight as a consolation prize!…
Longmire Artwork
A little zentangle doodle from today. This is based on my trip over the Big Horns… the pines, the creek, the geology, the flowers… and then… guess what I did to make it extra special? Yes. Oh, YES. Robert Taylor’s autograph. THE. and I mean *THE* Sheriff of Absaroka County, Wyoming… Walt Longmire. I know….
Next Year’s Rodeo
Back in the day… my kids attended Ten Sleep’s little kids’ rodeo. Held for just local kids, this rodeo was the first and only experience at being *in* a rodeo for most! I used to help a little bit in the arena, one time Really Overheating, as I recall… because next to the 4th of…
Time Will Tell
When we took the majority of the cows up to the mesa the other day, there were a few unbranded calves we needed to take care of. Daniel, too, wanted to brand his little herd. Since Daniel uses freeze branding, I thought I’d show that to you. While they recommend freeze branding in the spring,…
To Bee at Summer School
This morning I hosted Ten Sleep’s summer school on a field trip. Their focus is on… bees! I decided I could help with that! First was a talk on my lawn… where we looked at new and old comb and dead bees and brood comb and drone comb and had a bite of my honey……
Live It
It’s not even 10 and I’m bushed. We moved those cows today, and it was very pretty and slightly cooler up on the mountain! The chance for rain was high, so we all packed our slickers, expecting to get rained on most of the day. Turns out, it only started raining when we finally were…
Updated and Completed
Another hot day… I spent most of it behind my lawnmower. The big riding mower has a dead battery, so me and the little push mower spent quality time together today. And no, I don’t mean, rotary push mower! I have one, but I like more lawn mowed than I ever could accomplish with it!…
So Tall
It’s time to start shuffling cows around. We’re trying to do it slowly. It’s been a great grass year and as long as they’re still happy and staying where they should… we’ve been leaving them alone. We still wait as long as possible before getting clear on top… we let the poisonous larkspur run its…
