This review of the blog, Red Dirt In My Soul, covers bull testing, a third birthday, some bald eagles, curious calves and a whitetail buck. Clearing greasewood, filling ruts, a frozen mountain spring… all in a normal ranching schedule, but made unusual because it was December! And we can’t forget Propaganda!

Christmas Parade
I guess the newest thing on YouTube is called #shorts. Vertical videos in under a minute. I managed to squeeze Ten Sleep’s Christmas Parade into 58 seconds. It includes the Girl Scouts, 4H, Cowbelles, the town, Ten Sleep Brewery, some individuals, some businesses, the ambulance, fire department, and Santa! Four grandkids on floats… but Quinlan…

Lion Tale
Brandon came to tell me there were mountain lion tracks by our centennial sign. Would I be interested in taking photos???? You bet! Turns out, the mountain lion had killed a deer and drug it over a couple of hills, across our cattle guard and the highway, and stashed it in some trees. As I…

Here ’tis.

Studio Tour Video
Starting from VERY humble beginnings as an old chicken coop… My studio now is a haven for me. It’s quiet. I’ve put my stamp on everything out there… and I honestly could live in there quite easily. It’s been a long time since you’ve seen it, so here’s a tour for your Sunday video…

Re-Red: November 1 – November 6, 2020
Covering the week of November 1 – November 6, 2020, this video includes my daughters-in-law helping me out with some ranch photography… and being silly… collecting rocks along the creek and doing some creative wrapping/decoration on them. Gathering and sorting cows. Showing off the impressive wood pile from taking down some of our giant cottonwoods….

Sort The Cows – Video
Honestly, I didn’t take enough photos for a typical Re-Red video this week! Neverfear… after all the cow work we did, I decided to make just a video on cow sorting. Sounds simply enthralling, right? Now, cow sorting is often when, if stories are to be believed, tempers run short and people end up yelling…

Ranch Life Revisited
We revisit the week of October 18 – October 24, 2020. The week covered pumpkin carving, fog laying in the Big Horn Basin, goldfish transfer, a big snowfall with grandkids sledding while their parents were on the mountain gathering cows, the beginning of the bear wood burn, and some of our horses enjoying their fresh…

Q&A Video
Another video. Maybe I can post twice a week? One that’s photos and videos accompanied by music… my “Re-Red” videos… and maybe one where I’m talking… I can do Q&A sessions, teach a craft, share my wisdom (insert laughing here!) or just talk… Today’s the first attempt at that. To kick it off, I went…
