Kudos to you if you know what that is. Or not… depending on how you look at things. Because if you know this bovine illness, you know its consequences, and you know sometimes it’s not pretty. Let me back up and use some English. We vaccinated our heifers today… before we know it, it’ll be…

Minute Movie : “Big Country”
Ha. I made it out there. Vernon really wasn’t too concerned about leaving the pickup and horsetrailer out in the Badlands… but I volunteered to go along and bring it home anyway! I could have stayed home, I think, fairly easily… but it just doesn’t seem right! There were plenty of neighbors riding… and John,…
According to Plan
Well, things didn’t work out quite like I had planned… so I was not a partner in the badlands roundup today… I stayed in… organized on my craft room a bit… went through some boxes of my old stuff… got things ready for… get this… MY BRAND NEW WATER HEATER! SCORE! It will be a…
Question and Answer January 2012 VLOG!

Wrap and a Hooey
I had porkchops and cream of mushroom soup in the crockpot, the last of my home made frozen corn defrosting, a big salad made and chilling in the fridge, and baked potatoes wrapped and waiting for Megan to throw them in the oven at 11. I was off to help with the bangs vaccinating. The…
Christening and Contest Winners
We weighed our heifer calves today, and since the day was so warm, I had a helper for a few hours in the afternoon. Yeah… forget me (bad photo) but look closer! What a cutie! This is the cutest outfit to weigh calves in, I think I’ve ever seen! PLUS… He was cowboy christened today……

Wool Passion
Last November… yes, LAST November… as in 2010… I started Vernon’s Christmas present, a wonderful wool saddlepad, instructions shared by my friend, Linda, up in Alberta. I worked on it. Even started A New Craft Support Group. And A New Craft Support Group Part B. Then spring came… and we remodeled and moved… and did…
Minute Movie: Her Glory
Couldn’t resist… I had a few seconds of the bald eagle chattering and stretching her leg on video… Not exactly High Drama, but fascinating in its own way! I HAD to make a Minute Movie! Minute Movie: Her Glory from Carol Greet on Vimeo. If you enjoyed this eagle video, you’ll love THE STORY, for…
Wordless Wednesday – “As the Crow Flies”

Long Shot
The guys have been going out regularly to our badlands pasture… every 5 days to open waterholes… and almost everyday to kick the cows off the fence. With the snow and lower temperatures, they yearn to drift in to the hayfields and beg for hay. It’s a big pull for them… kinda like a dog…
Her Glory
The walk… refreshing in 8″ of snow… Canada Geese were flushed from the creekbank… and a visitor was spotted high in the cottonwood. I angled for a closer shot… and tested my zoom. This, dear Camera Manufacturers, is why I need a great zoom on my little pocket camera! A wing s-t-r-e-t-c-h and chatter and…
