This was first published April 11, 2014. See who makes a cameo at the end! Cattle don’t usually give birth to twins, and we’ve found that it is best to leave just one calf with its momma, and take the other one away. This one will be bottle fed until a new mother can be…

Lost Calf Video
Yay! I did it! I couldn’t make it on my big computer, so my iPad bailed me out. It’s kind of a quick job, but it works. This goes along with my post from two days ago… looking for the “lost” calf that two mommas had ignored when they both claimed the same baby. Enjoy!
#TBT: Minute Movie:Trailing By, v.2.0
This was first published November 1, 2012. 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,…
Goofing Around Video
After hours on horseback, sometimes it’s fun to get a little silly to brighten up the day. It’s easy to get numb… your legs, your butt, your mind. I made up a radio station and interviewed a few of our crew.
Second Round Video
(Sorry this is late. Gave up on waiting for it to upload!) Once again, we move a herd into the corral to vaccinate the calves. Short video clips take you through the entire day. We gather early in the morning and take them over to the corral. Calves are sorted from their mothers who noisily…
A Bit of Mountain Work Video
After making this video, I know one thing for sure… it’s time to break out the new camera! The dust in my old one made some photos pretty ugly! We gathered one of our pastures with a little bitty trail/cattle drive just over the hill into what we call our Horse Pasture. This small area,…
Video Share
Today I’m sharing a couple of short videos I’ve made recently. One is the hailstorm that recently demolished my garden… The other video is about the event at the library yesterday. Lazy T Ranch brought in cowboy cook Kent Rollins for a book signing and block party. Approximately 300 fried bologna sandwiches were served. Red…
AI ing with Brandon and Crew Video
I finished the video with Brandon AIing some of his herd.
Ranch Kid City Kid Video
Well, I did it. I made my first video in a long time on my iPad. It definitely took getting used to! This is what I was working on when my desktop crashed. Lacee had spent a great deal of time coaching me on how to edit. She told me it should go to black…
Pairing Out Video/Johnny’s Legacy
I think about him often. But here, riding is where I remember Johnny most. He was so quiet: in voice, in horsemanship, in stockmanship. Ride into that herd quiet, cut out the cow and calf pair, let your horse be quiet too, turn the pair, and follow them out so they think it’s all their…
#TBT: The Easter Egg, v.2.0
This was first posted April 7, 2012. It’s been a busy couple of days, with kids and grandkids all here… But they’ve all left now. Silence reigns and a neglected English Shepherd lays at my feet! Easter Sunday just might be a smidge quiet. While they were here, I did, with Victoria’s help, manage to…
