I’m going to repeat myself. Because I talked about these years ago… but when J. showed up the other day, and brought me two new ones… I just HAVE to mention them again, they’re just so cool! This is what I’m talking about… First, “Welcome, Friends” Then, “Cowboy Wisdom” She just photographs vintage farm tools,…

Surround Yourself
Yesterday, a woman and her husband stopped in… Someone who had worked on this place back when it belonged to the former owner… Back when our children were little, babies, and being born… Back when I was SO SO SO happy to have people MY AGE finally around the “neighborhood”. Back when we were learning…
The Game
We started this the other day… I’ve grouped them all together for better reading. **** The thick mist lay heavy on the uneven ground, making their lungs work even harder than their long legs were… the wanderers had miles behind them… yet miles left to travel but the beauty of the land around them blessed…
Dee-lish
Here’s my last photo of Tully… And one of the last of Chabot… Can you tell they’re really stressed out about going to their new homes??? Yeah. NOT. Then… let’s go back to yesterday… and that tomato hornworm??? Bleh. This is why I’m not a fan, though I’ll grant you the Hawk Moth is attractive……
Yuk
So Tully was handed off this morning… and I enjoyed myself in Buffalo, Wyoming… and now I’m headed out for some Perseid watching… but I thought I’d share this! Look what disgusting critter has attacked my garden! YUK! (It’s a tomato hornworm…) **** August 11, 2011 Shopping in Wyoming August 11, 2010 Wordless Wednesday –…

Wordless Wednesday – “The Game”
Or maybe not! Remember the game where everyone adds to the story? A sentence or two to set the scene and the tale has twists and turns because everyone had their own stories they’d like to tell? Anyone wanna play? *The thick mist lay heavy on the uneven ground, making their lungs work even harder…
New Country
I went with Vernon this afternoon to prepare for moving our cattle on Thursday. Since the Mesa Pasture burned up in our fire, we had to go looking for extra grass… and we found it! I haven’t been up there until today. We put some salt out to help the cows settle in… they LOVE…
Cute Accessories
I’ve managed a few days work in my studio… Remember that project? I don’t touch it for weeks, then get a few days of productivity! The electricity has been installed. I’ve filled some hard to reach gaps with foam insulation. I’ve torn down the top row of chicken nest boxes. They were tipping forward and …
Poor Elsa
I wander outside this morning… move my chicken tractor and let the chickens out… and begin visiting with Johnny. He’s here, along with almost everyone else, to load out a truck load of heifers. Almost immediately, there’s a puppy problem. Tully, self-appointed Alpha, is in a Big Fight with little Chabot. Even though Chabot is…
