The walk… refreshing in 8″ of snow… Canada Geese were flushed from the creekbank… and a visitor was spotted high in the cottonwood. I angled for a closer shot… and tested my zoom. This, dear Camera Manufacturers, is why I need a great zoom on my little pocket camera! A wing s-t-r-e-t-c-h and chatter and…

Smiles, Love, Joy, Peace
I sincerely hope each and every one of you had a joyous holiday. If family and friends could not be near, I wish you had their presence in your heart. Even with my house full of three newborns, and new members of our family, and our patriarch… I could feel those that weren’t *here*… and…

Winter Wardrobe
…I continue my walk. I head for a woven wire gate… easier than climbing over the tight barbed wire! But there, on the other side, sits a snowshoe hare! He’s taking in the sun, and barely glances at me as I approach. The dogs are off in the weeds somewhere… and I return down the…
Where Was I?
Like I mentioned yesterday… I had a few adventures on my walk. After communing with our new bulls for a bit (and exposing my new camera to its first taste of hay dust!), the dogs and I proceeded down to the water gap. This camera has the cool feature where you can choose one color……
Handsome
I managed to take my walk this afternoon… a glorious day where my sweatshirt and Carhartt were just too heavy and too warm! It was probably in the ’40’s… but, my! how nice! I had MULTIPLE tiny adventures… and managed to get them on “film” with my new toy… well, until the battery went dead!…
New Toy… Again
This is it. The new toy. Canon PowerShot ELPH 510 HS Digital Camera Touch screen. 12x zoom. So far… pretty stinking cool. This is what will bring you cows and calves, cowboys and creekwalks, and for the next few weeks… Christmas scenery! Time will tell if Canon products hold up to Wyoming dust. If anyone…
Tootsies
I’m home. I left Kaycee this afternoon, positive that Victoria can handle those boys! She might need an extra hand or two on occasion… but in the past few days, she’s become an expert on tandem feeding. It is an art. The boys are getting it figured out as well. I’ve learned a great deal…
