Didn’t I?

The inside needs some cleaning… That’s what I was *supposed* to do today, but getting my little mini truck down there in the slick mud and, yes, it *did* SNOW…

Bee Adventurous IV

Posted on February 16, 2014

Good Things

Posted on February 15, 2014November 28, 2014

My, oh, my!  I’ve a couple of videos for you… but I didn’t come in here soon enough to accomplish that!  After fussing and researching, I decided, once the sun was out and it was a balmy 45˚, to go ahead and break into my new hive and see the conditions. I had worried that…

Bee Adventurous Again

Posted on February 14, 2014

Knock on Wood

Posted on February 11, 2014

We didn’t get back home until after dark.  While the morning started cold, below zero in various spots as we drove along for 3 hours, by the time we arrived in Riverton, the day had finally warmed up, and it actually was 41˚. 41˚!  Wow. Somehow that camera of mine forgot to get out of…

Questions and Answers – October 2013 Edition

Posted on October 13, 2013

Let’s go! Marilyn:  Question: your dogs expend a LOT of energy when they are working. What do you feed them for optimum nutrition?

Weekend Started

Posted on May 24, 2013

Busy day! I was a tad bit early to the show… so I took some time for wildflower photography… Then I helped begin the AI process… which consists of a shot of Lutalyse, which is a prostaglandin.  It synchronizes estrus, in other words, all our heifers should come into heat in the next few days……
