In between the rain storms the guys continue to work on projects… so strange to be a week into August and throw a light blanket on at night or sweatshirts during the day! The cool weather is supposed to stop tomorrow and the guys are anxious to get going on the second cutting of hay….

Questions and Answers August 2023 Edition, Part Two
Continuing the Q&A session… Susan: (From the AI video). What an education! Did he have several Bulls semen to choose from in the container? Yes, I think so. You can keep quite a few straws of semen in a tank that size. You must keep the tank filled with liquid nitrogen to keep it frozen….
Day Off
We took the day off and went to the mountain with friends. I’ll have to finish the questions and answers tomorrow. These boys stayed around for their photos.
Questions and Answers, August 2023 Edition
I know, it’s been FOREVER. I DO READ MY COMMENTS, I do! I went back a ways and tried to gather the latest questions, but forgive me if I miss yours because I didn’t go back far enough! I think I’ll stop here tonight. More to come!
Rain Delay
While we should be haying along… instead we’re on rain delay. We’re up to .68” for the month of August already. “Make hay while the sun shines” is a truism. You can’t cut hay if the field is wet, the hay is wet, and if it’s cut and laying on the ground, you don’t want…

Summertime Fun
It was time for some summertime fun with cousins… All eight together with plenty of squealing and moss fights and splashing and swimming and floating and kicking and laughing and short lectures and timeouts and back at it again… hopefully, a good summertime fun memory.
Off Camping
At the last minute, I decided to go camping. School will be soon upon us and I wanted to take grandkids camping. Tess and kids bowed out since they’ve been “camping” at fair all week, but Brandon, Megan, and kids, and my sister all volunteered to go. For my Girl Scout friends… yes, notice the…
Horse Trainers
Lately, I’ve been investigating a few tips to help me with my horse. While Milo is basically a good horse… he does have some quirks that I’d like to iron out. I’ve been very lucky with Panama and before him, Willow. They each had a light touch, turning with the minimum of rein pressure. Milo…
Fair Time
It’s the Washakie County Fair and the culmination of Jaxon and Lacee’s many months of work. They each have a steer and a heifer to show. Now I’ve never been a a 4H mom or a fair mom, being a Lifetime member of Girl Scouts… so I’m pretty ignorant of everything. I do know how…
