Yesterday my friends arrived from New Zealand. A. and her husband, V. Now… as some of you may know… time sure flies by… A. and I worked together at a place once known as Girl Scout National Center West. It was the ultimate camp for Girl Scouts back then… much like the Boy Scouts’ Philmont….

What’s going on?
Boy, back in the day… my mother could say… “What’s going on here?” and my heart would stop! Who am I kidding… She STILL makes my heart stop if she asks that and the tone is JUST RIGHT… That’s what this red tail hawk seems to be saying as he perched over my head. This…
Cerberus
From the depths of darkness… emerging from the gates of Hades… I give you… Cerberus… the multi-headed dog who guards the underworld! Forced upward atop an ancient cedar… splitting stone in its struggle to escape from Hades… Cerberus emerges into the light of day in the middle of Wyoming… Completing its journey from hell into…
Wordless Wednesday – Romantic Glow
The sunset creates a romantic glow… ha! in Lucas’ dreams… see yesterday’s post!
Moody Blues
If you’ve ever been around dogs, i.e. bred dogs, you’ll know the “moody blues”. Lucas is that moody dog. The one that lays outside of the girls’ kennel when they are penned. He mopes. I think his lower lip ACTUALLY sticks out in a pout. On occasion he howls. Not a coyote howl… a pitiful……
Web Design and Lottery
I’d love to develop another web site… and I’d like to win 100 million dollars… Whichever will come first is anyone’s guess… I don’t have time for the first and I don’t live in a state with a lottery… Though I’d hire someone who is good at web development. I offered the job to my…
Red Tail Hawk Floating
Yesterday was my 28th wedding anniversary… wow. wheew. For many years we poured Warbex on this day… don’t know why it worked that way… but I’m very glad we don’t do that anymore… Warbex is a pour on insecticide for cattle. It worked great… it just smelled bad. Warbex (or that day) used to give…
Hours Away
We had to move cows today… the 99 pair we trailed here… Somehow my disorganized self couldn’t remember to recharge the batteries in my little OOPE camera… and there was NO WAY I would pack my big camera on a day like today! So… Your imagination will have to work today. This pasture doesn’t belong…
More Delightful
I have, quite honestly, attempted an entry a day, even on those long days where my muscles ache and bones creak as I sit down at my computer. Yesterday I had absolutely no intention of abandoning you, causing even the most minor of irritations in your lives… I chose, relatively late in the morning to…
Wordless Wednesday – Tall Grass/Quarterhorse/Fat Cows/Brisk Wind
Panama grazes during our windy lunch break yesterday… please ignore the houndstongue in his forelock.
Kicked Across
All six of us rode horses today, Victoria meeting us on top, coming from her side of the mountain. We kicked our cows across the road to new pasture. Our cows have been in our leased pasture since our big trail drive weeks ago. Since we put 100 pairs in ANOTHER leased pasture the grass…
Photoshop Creativity
Sometimes I wish I could take a class on Photoshop. Some graphic design class that includes step 1, step 2, step 3… I’m not going to blame my age, but I need my steps written out any more. I need notes. Everywhere. Not just grocery lists. What*I*need*to*do*today lists. What Vernon told me to do today….
