The past month I’ve posted a teaser or two about the mountain lions that hung around for a few days. Tonight, the video arrives! Yes, it’s a LONG video, but each day I saw them, I noticed new things. First. This has been a bucket list item for me. I’ve seen the tail of one…

Two Days of Calving Video
This week I chose to just share the past two days of calving; yesterday, nice and blue skies, today, a snowstorm rolled in. I also chose not to put music with this video. One thing I love about calving, is the quiet and calmness. The soft “mehs” of the heifers… the little newborn voices in…
Valentino Video
I’ve about given up on downloading my Live Facebook videos… so I made you a quick video today to make up for them! Enjoy Feeding Valentino!
Still Here
Valentino is still here. He’s a tiny little fighter. He is far from being out of the woods, though, and he gives me a roller coaster ride… is he breathing? oh, look, he wants to stand… I don’t like the sound of his breathing. Look at how bright his eyes are! I never know what…
Fun and Work Video
This week’s video for the blog, has us exploring Castle Gardens near Ten Sleep, a quick view of our new calving sheds and heaters, and laying a pipeline. The pipeline will eventually be buried, but for now, we run it on top of the ground. This covers January 23-30, 2021.
#TBT: Baby Calf Walk Video, v.2.0
For this Throwback Thursday, it’s Baby Calf Walk. As newborn calves are born in the calving shed, they are soon moved outside to make room for the next calving mother. That means we will walk them on their staggering hooves, through snow, when they have no idea how to simply walk, much less follow their…
Wyoming Ranch Life Video – Bulls and Tea
The video for this week on the ranch and the blog, Red Dirt In My Soul, covers January 11 – January 22, 2021. We move some bulls down the highway and feed them, cows come in from the Badlands Pasture and get worked through the chute by my little replacement, a failed attempt at cooking…
#TBT: Opening Water Holes Video
For this week’s Throwback Thursday, I’m reposting a video much like the one I did just a few weeks ago, but this one is from 2012. If you’re looking at the country, or the activity, it’s still the same. We’re all older, though, all the dogs have died, and we’ve sold the blue pickup. In…
Ranchlife- Winter Fencing Video
This week’s recap of Red Dirt In My Soul covers only January 8 – January 10, 2021. Ranchlife continues with the grandkids enjoying some fresh snow and sledding at my house. “Lookout below!” A frosty morning captures my camera lens and I have to take multiple photos of the delicate patterns on windows and weeds….
#TBT: Snowfall Video
When I looked back for an old video for this Thursday’s post, I just had to choose this one. After a big snowstorm, I take all my dogs for a walk… or try to. They aren’t very enthusiastic about the deep snow, and I’m huffing and puffing along on snowshoes! For those of you who’ve…
Wyoming Ranch Life Recap – Jan. 1-7, 2021 – Video
A re-cap of our Wyoming ranch life from January 1 – January 7, 2021. This video covers opening water holes for cows, a job that must be done daily, and the arrival of our new additions to our calving shed. After unloading the sheds, the guys have to go feed, and I go inside to…
