Of all the colors of Indian Paintbrush that exist… I love this brilliant red the most. Believe me, the photo doesn’t do it justice. For its jigsaw puzzle, go HERE.

It’s time to bring the cattle in from the “Badlands”, aka, our BLM allotment named Willow Creek. Victoria and Waylon and Matthew came to help, and I’m on lunch duty while spending some special time with Reagan. Today was barely in the ‘60*’s, so chili and hot chocolate wouldn’t have been out of the question,…
Summer Reading
The summer reading program is in full swing at the Ten Sleep Library and I do program one day a week. The other two part time librarians do one day each, as well, so we have a three day a week program. The theme is “Adventure Begins at Your Library.” One girl is doing Tall…
Practice

Wordless Wednesday: Storm Is Over
I couldn’t resist turning this photo into a puzzle. I generally don’t reuse photos… but I really like this one! Go HERE.
Spring Chore
Spring chores include putting up our lay down fence on the mountain. These stretches of lay down fence are along the stock drive road. We put them up first since people are taking their livestock up along these stock drives. The fences are put up in a unique way. Remove the nail and shove the…
Impressive Adventure
I was up on the mountain with Vernon and the clouds started rolling in… We were behind a cliff wall and couldn’t see the oncoming storm, but Vernon decided he needed to get his trailer off in good time, so we left our work. I was in the side by side and I gave him…
