This video covers March 3 – March 20, 2022. Calving season is in full swing on the ranch. Each calf will get an eartag, and an ear mark (which is a square underbite) and will be banded if it is a bull calf. All of which D does at the beginning of this movie. The…

Garden Tower Video
Here’s the video I made about my “After the Bell’s” garden tower. Over two days, the kids and I assembled, filled with dirt, and planted our tower. Of course, there’s been snow on the ground, so it hasn’t spent any time in the sunshine, but it is together… Our center compost tower has only a…
Ranch Snippets Video
Sorry about last night… I had company and we stayed up LATE and visited… I finally made another video. I honestly haven’t taken that many photos except for Megan’s Sunflower Table and my class at the Ten Sleep Library… but the camera seems to be coming out of hibernation… so perhaps more videos will be…
Sunflower Table Video
You’ve all heard the story by now. Megan’s childhood table was sanded by her, wood burned/painted/stained/poly’d by me. She chalk painted the base to match her kitchen wall. It’s done. Enjoy the process!
Ranch Living Video
This short video tells of middle school basketball games with the grands, some alcohol ink crafting, our young bulls, an amazing sun pillar, Bravo reenacting Lucas’ award winning photo, and a short walk through the fields. Not a long video… but life is quiet here for now.
Beginning A New Year at the Ranch Video
My year started off with a bang when something exploded and burned my new wool sweatshirt. Vernon’s New Year’s birthday was followed by babysitting some of my grands where we always find adventure. We looked for two bulls in some big country and branded a few as well. A new hay feeder arrived and the…

Ranching in Big Country Video
Ranching in Big Country leads to many great landscape shots and this video is full of them. A glowing sunset kicks off this video and author Craig Johnson visits the Ten Sleep Library. Then more Big Country and the silence of the land. Moose and Ten Sleep Canyon, a short cattle drive on a very…
Cows, Cowboys, Kids & Art Video
Wyoming ranch activities during November 9 – 26, 2021. My drake mallards refuse to fly away preferring to stay in my chicken coop where the living is easy! We move cattle to water using horses… the drought is evident in the reservoir cracked dirt. My art class sponsored by Lifetime Arts was held at the…
#TBT: “Ice #2: The Movie”, v.2.0
This was first posted December 28, 2010. To continue our icy theme this week… Here is the video from Christmas Day… To start… the guys chop the ice out of the tank while cows wait for a drink in the background. The last half of this video is more along the lines…
Ranch Life in Wyoming Video
This video covers November 2 through November 8, 2021. We gathered and moved various groups of cattle this week, moving them to lower pastures and sorting them as well. Time was also filled with some molting chickens, trying (and failing) in some prescribed burning, and various scenic views from around the ranch.
