Wow… Seems like this was pretttttyyy interrrrresting, eh? I’ll answer a few questions from yesterday’s comments first. Jake, seeing as how you’re *closer* to CSU, seems like you could put out some feelers for upcoming clinics, or contact Dr. Holt directly and see where he’s talking next. He’s well worth a drive! Darrell, you don’t…

PAP Testing
Meanwhile, back… Today, Daniel and Brandon hosted a presentation on PAP testing. Now, I can already see you guys starting to turn away to run, and most of the women cringing… But PAP testing with cattle is far removed from taking Pap smears with women! Stick around, all of you, you might find this interesting!…
Supervisors
We loaded a few girls on the truck this morning. Time to say goodbye… Thanks, girls. Of course, the supervisors were there.

Highlights
Getting organized for Thanksgiving, including cleaning and straightening up my house, occupied most of my day. Unknown to me, the guys moved the heifers from one field to another. Had I known, I would have helped… and of course, taken photos for you! As it was, the most excitement I saw was my washing machine! …
Reader’s Digest Version
Well, I didn’t take the time to figure out why my camera won’t download some of my videos. I’m not sure if its a memory thing, or if its unreadable for some other reason. Which is too bad, because I have great movies of Quinlan’s first bull sale! You’d think the sound and activity would…
Cooped Up
After lunch, I decided to transfer the chickens back into the Puppy Coop. It was such a nice day, 40 and sunny, so it felt good to be out shuffling things around. I grabbed all my dog supplies, crates and tunnels and beds and toys and hauled them to the bunkhouse. The roost had been…
Questions and Answers – November 2012 Edition
Let’s get going! Sandy G.: Was there a reason for tying the twine on the chicken’s leg? (Keep it out of your garden, keep it nearby, or just for some fun!!) ??? (I am an ignoramus when it comes to chickens, so just wondering.) ;-} Sandy, I figured I needed a way to catch her……

Just Ducky
After I finished canning the last 5 pints of salsa for the year, and cleaning house, and looking for calendar photos… I headed outside for some fresh air. I drove up and examined the center pivot from close up… still no power… and a few other things left to do… but I must say it…
Minute Slide Show: Shaw Pasture
Yay! Accomplished this little job in between raking leaves and cleaning house! Amazing how easy it is if you don’t wait until 11 pm to do things like this! Here’s a little slide show, sharing our 5 hours of trailing cows to our Shaw Pasture. Beautiful day… 60 something degrees… no wind… barely any dust……
Aflame
Oh, I really really need to catch up on my sleep… so the little slideshow I thought about making is going on tomorrow’s schedule. We moved cows again today… A gorgeous 5 hours of work! Hopefully, I can be creative throughout tomorrow and have it ready for you. Until then, Thursday morning’s sunrise was brilliant…
Minute Movie: Trailing By
This Minute Movie is twice as long as normal… but I just couldn’t resist the peacefulness that saturates this video! We are letting the cows trail by… Vernon on horseback in the middle of the gate, getting a good count as they walk past. Daniel leaves my side, and walks to the back of the…
