I took a drive through the neighbor’s pasture, helping him out a tiny bit. Remember our “little” 4,000 acre fire? Well, it actually burned more of this neighbor’s pastures than ours and the view from the “other” side of Otter Creek Canyon was amazing.

Pig Trails
A Dear Lady calls them Pig Trails. Those unadventurous ruts we get in… The same route to work. The same food off the menu. The quickest way to your destination. The same kind of you-name-it… food, drink, clothes, trips, movies, work! Today I got off my Pig Trail… just a smidge… but, my! What a…
Quick Break
Friends were here. Puppies were petted. Rocks were picked. Ash devils were watched. Friends left. Ranchlife back to normal… Bull stuck in reservoir (unstuck himself before we got there… no photos) Noticed a new fire while looking for bull (guys out fighting again… no photos) What a quick break! **** Happy birthday, Mom… but I…

Mountain Picnic
With company here, we actually took some time off… This time we chose to go to our mountain pasture and check out the grass (and weeds) and enjoy a picnic. I didn’t have enough hot dogs… so gypsy dinners it is! The scenery was beautiful… The weather was great (no wind, perfect temperature… with the…
My Style
Well, for those of you interested in more wedding photos… I’ll just refer you to the photographer, who did an amazing job! Her name is Gail Carver. While there are a few on her website, her Facebook page has 13 wonderful photos! Me? I’m no wedding photographer! And I seemed to be a tad busy…
I’d Like To Introduce To You…
This weekend was the wedding… so I had an excused absence from blogging last night! Let me update you! Brandon and Megan chose to be married next to the original Joe Henry homestead… the same place we had our Centennial Celebration 3 years ago. However… 99.99% of the time… it is also our little horse…
Name of the Game
A little fox kit strikes a pose almost identical to a photo I took for the March 2011 entry on last year’s calendar… This time there are either 4 or 5 kits, although I never seem to catch them! Obviously, at least for those of you living in the general area, this wasn’t taken today! …
Having a Blast
My sister is here. We work on projects together quite well. We also can have fun! Today was Fun Day. What would we choose to play with today??? She took her new AR-15… I took my new .22. (We also had throwing knives and slingshots along for backup!) I took my little bitty spinny target…
Excitement x 3
Wow. Where was I? Seems like forevvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvver that this blog actually WORKED! But it does, and I’m excited! Thanks, GoDaddy… Then my sister… who lives in Texas… was visiting in Billings, Montana, and her truck broke down. Her son brought her down to me while it was being repaired… Two days later… it was finished…
The Titanic Event in Pictures
The lifeboat. The awesome gangway. King of the World! King of the Wha? The Iceberg. First Class place settings… too bad the scones hadn’t arrived yet! They were tasty! Second Class place setting. Steerage place setting. The prizes. A moment of silence.
Family Tree
Not long ago, I shared the beginnings of an undertaking with you… in As Time Goes By. It is my version of the Pinterest project usually called “painted family tree” or some such title. Like I said earlier, this is an ongoing job, as our family grows… so will these photo walls. I’m looking for…
