One pond I rode by seems to never settle, the clay/bentonite soil is always suspended, and it is a perpetually muddy pool. The barren trees overshadow it, their roots allowing the water to seep upwards in an enduring spring. Hidden among the roots, I spied pink surprises. Fireweed blooms in the moist shade, a rare…

Dying Mules’ Ears
OK. I’m pooped. I may even be beyond pooped. Don’t ask what that is, just take me at my word! We trailed our big bunch to the mountain pasture today. They went good most of the way, except for the STEEP HILL. The cows went up it fairly well, but, unfortunately, a lot of them…

Dust and Curiousity
Looking for that pair that needs to stay behind… Curiousity doesn’t pay.
Sunset Heat
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…
