Surround Yourself

Posted on August 14, 2012October 22, 2014

Yesterday, a woman and her husband stopped in… Someone who had worked on this place back when it belonged to the former owner… Back when our children were little, babies, and being born… Back when I was SO SO SO happy to have people MY AGE finally around the “neighborhood”. Back when we were learning…

Sad Tale

Posted on August 2, 2012April 3, 2015

First, I’d like to say “HI!” to any new readers out there in Blogland.  This weekend is BlogHer ’12 in New York City.  Since I managed to be chosen as one of their Voice of the Year (visual) winners, more than a few people might see my name/blog for the first time! Welcome to Wyoming!…

Breaks My Heart

Posted on July 29, 2012April 3, 2015

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. (There was a definite moonscape feel to this formerly grassy pasture)…

Pig Trails

Posted on July 27, 2012April 3, 2015

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

Posted on July 9, 2012October 22, 2014

Mountain Picnic

Posted on June 12, 2012April 3, 2015

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…

Posted on June 10, 2012April 3, 2015

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

Posted on May 26, 2012October 18, 2014

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

Posted on April 22, 2012April 3, 2015

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…

Carol, Wyoming rancher

Since 2008, I’ve kept this photographic journal of life on our working Wyoming ranch.  I share ranch work, my family, crafts and DIY, my English Shepherds, Bravo and Indy, and a love for this land.  Enjoy this red dirt country!
