There’s something about this landscape that appeals to me…

Sweet Christmas Gifts
I’ve been wanting to try this for over a year and today, finally, I noticed my chance. I can’t even remember how I stumbled across this. Maybe it was researching making syrup from boxelder trees (another thing I’ve always wanted to try). Who knows? But today… the word is MUGOLIO. Mugolio is the term applied…
Historical Photo: Elmer
Since everyone loved the historical reminisces of Vernon’s uncle that I published for a while… I thought maybe you’d enjoy some historical photographs as well. I’ll give a name or location if I have one and I’ll try to choose some interesting ones. Please chime in with things you notice or corrections if I label…

Wordless Wednesday: Wild Canyon

Beauty Shots
Well, unfortunately, Can-Am didn’t see my Instagram video overnight and offer to give us a brand new outfitted Defender to drive… but that’s ok. Vernon said he’d hate to take a pretty machine down there like he did yesterday. I could not believe he kept going through all that… and that we made it to…
Can Am Off Road
Company left this morning and I spent time catching up on my laundry. Vernon was off rolling up an old fence line. After lunch, he returned. He had blown a hose on the machine and had switched his focus to getting the pump replaced down in Otter Creek Canyon. It’s one of my favorite drives,…
Bronze Clay
Vernon’s sister and brother-in-law have been here visiting. We’ve gone to fair, and seen some country, and met up with relatives, and photographed old photographs, but the one thing we’ve always tried to do during her visits, is, we do a craft together. This year Cindy brought the craft. For years she has worked with…
New Accommodations
I was suspicious. My No Name cat, descended from Johnny’s “Kitty”, disappeared. Then, while playing a family card game at my dining table, we spotted Indy out in my yard with a kitten in her mouth! I flew out the door and she had dropped it. She just wants to LOVE THEM. But being licked…
Oh, Beef!
Well, the Beef Show at the Washakie County Fair started at 4:30. Four hours later… with an hour’s drive home… and the 90 degree heat… I was pooped! I came in, downloaded a ton of photos and videos, and passed out in the recliner! I woke up at 11:30 and staggered off to bed! The…
Oh, Sheep Show!
It was Jaxon and Lacee’s turn to shine in the Washakie County Fair Sheep Show. Again, I can’t tell you much about showing sheep… constant eye contact with the judge, always be on the opposite side of the sheep as the judge, lift the sheep’s head up and back to brace the back muscles so…
Oh, the Pig Show!
It was Quinlan and Lorelei’s day at the Washakie County Fair. Now we’ve been to the Beef Show before, but not the Pig Show until today. Rocket and Rose are Hereford pigs, colored like Hereford cattle. Quinlan was on first with the FFA kids. The first timers compete with the experienced hands and what chaos!…
