This was first posted September 18, 2012. Yes, there used to be a video but it was dropped in my move from Vimeo to YouTube. The breeze lifted the eerie, beautiful sound to Panama’s ears. He halted, unsure. His nostrils flared, and every muscle was gathered. Should he run? Ears intently forward, his eyes peered…

Wordless Wednesday: Scenic Bravo
For this jigsaw puzzle of Bravo, go HERE.
Outdoor Experience
Well, I had told myself I would do something *outside* today. This was not what I had in mind. Brandon and Megan were going to Worland to buy straw for our calving shed and I would hitch a ride if they would stop at the grocery store’s case lot sale. With four of us working,…
Uh. Nothing.
My day was spent as organizer for my basement… adding more tubs to underneath my newest tall bed… pitching and sorting plastic containers… shuffling newer foodstuffs to the back of shelf to make way for the new if I get to town for the case lot sale… JUST ALL SORTS OF EXCITEMENT. I found out:…
Testing, Testing
My sister makes many food items from her garden produce. She makes mead and wine and salsa and frozen vegetables. She dehydrates. She cans. She makes fruit leather and jelly. I think most of all though, she loves to ferment food. I had to taste fermented salsa last time I visited! Today I joined in…
Special Day
Daniel and Brandon searched and found three wayward heifers. Vernon doctored a couple of sick calves. Victoria and I did household chores, mainly dishes after feeding everyone homemade pizza last night! Then this… Jaxon’s first home football game. As a fifth grader, he looks tiny next to some eighth graders! He loves the game, though,…
Great Thing
We’ve been interested in small shed/cabins for a while, driving here and there on rainy days to check them out. Our neighbors on the mountain are logging a patch of trees and the logging trucks drive through a corner of our pasture. We found out the logger has built a few little cabins over the…
#TBT: Definitely A Blessing, v.2.0
This was first posted September 7, 2012. It’s so fun to see how far the studio has come! The past three days, I’ve had a visitor. While I’ve had to dress up and work at the Ten Sleep Library, my visitor has donned work clothes, gloves, and air mask… and he’s shoveled out my chicken…
Wordless Wednesday: Ready for Winter
Here’s a challenge! For a jigsaw puzzle of this woodpile, go HERE. And, no, it’s not mine!
Add Your Own Adjectives
Typical for those in the ranching/farming occupation… if it rains… since you can’t work in wet fields or travel on slick muddy roads… you go to town! Vernon and I headed to Buffalo. With all the rain we had yesterday, it wasn’t a shock to wake up to a grey day. But when that fog…
Yay for Organization
It began to sprinkle last night. Our morning was cool and pleasant after the 90 degree heat of a few days ago. Then, the rain began. As I sit here typing, we’ve been blessed with 1.38”! That’s quite a bit of rain for Wyoming! It continues to pour and the week is forecasted to be…
Impressive
One thing to be said for not having much garden produce… there’s not much to can! My first canning job of the year was sweet pickle relish. Most of the cucumbers were from my sister. I think I am down to one jar from a few years ago, so I’m happy to be restocked. We…
