Vernon ran up to check the water in the Mesa Pasture first thing this morning. Fog lay thick in the bottoms and he drove out of it as he climbed in elevation. I posted a cool video he took on Facebook. I thought, people will think this is very cool. Well, a few did! I…

Re-Red: October 4 – October 10, 2020
This re-cap for Red Dirt In My Soul covers the clean-up from the massive tree that fell in my father-in-law’s yard, checking on the new water system, early morning with the chickens, and wild turkeys from the studio window. My covered porch is built… almost. Just a few more finishing touches and the roof tin…

Another video for Wyoming’s working ranch blog! I almost forgot… so this one is posted late. Fall is here and the falling leaves are mesmerizing and my cat is not fond of walking in a frosty field. I finally have a cell phone and have to practice on some scenery – Spot, my rooster –…
Re-Red: Ranch Life – A Quiet Week
This week’s ranch life video, from September 20 -26, 2020, is a fairly quiet week. I attended a program about the unsolved murders on Red Bank Ranch in 1911, Craig Johnson’s new book debuted with a mention of Ten Sleep, the brewery, its creator, and a local musician. My chicks are grown although still not…
Bonus Video!
A quick movie to explain some things… wait until the end, when I *MAY* have found a “new” name for the videos! Or, should I just give each video its own name??? And really. It’s not much of a surprise, because I was silly and put it in the title of the video… way to…
Re-Red: September 13 – September 19, 2020
This was a busy week! We gathered the heifers from one pasture and took them to another so we could preg test them. While waiting for the veterinarian to arrive, Tess and I went hunting arrowheads. I’ve looked here multiple times and have had a tiny bit of success, but that day we found three!…
Re-Red: September 6 – September 12, 2020
This week is a sentimental look at the end of summer. Freezing temperatures and snow were predicted, so I thought it was the last look at my garden and flowers. While much of Wyoming had snow up to 14″ deep, we avoided the storm. We put up the last of the hay, or so we…
Re-Red: August 30 – September 5, 2020
It was a pretty quiet week overall. I didn’t work much, and have Tess and Megan to thank for sharing some of their cowboying photos. I noticed a fat beaver grooming creekside… processed my meat birds… had the memorable moment with Daniel… and enjoyed some quiet sunsets. Victoria came to visit, the sor-dan was finally…
Re-Red: August 22 – August 29, 2020
This video covers our anniversary trip up to Shell, Wyoming with visits to the Shell Store, Shell Canyon, and Shell Falls. Fasten your seatbelt when I fast forward you through the switchbacks coming back down! Next follows Daniel cutting the sor-dan… an impressive crop! A few slow motion birds… a harvest… and our big trip…
Re-Red: August 16 – August 21, 2020
Wow. This video is the compilation of the week August 16-21, 2020, for Wyoming’s working ranch blog, Red Dirt In My Soul. Obviously, I can’t read a calendar lately. Last week’s Re-Red movie went two days into this week, and I just realized I am a day short on this video. My goodness. I must…
Re-Red: August 9 – August 15, 2020
This turned out to be quite a long video! This week covers: a friend’s colt, gathering cattle and vaccinating calves, commentary from the littlest cowgirl, our sor-dan field (a sorghum/sudan hybrid), a visit to The Lodge at Willard Springs, wildlife, stacking small bales, and a tremendous sunset. I hope it isn’t too long… and I…
Re-Red: August 2 – August 8, 2020
This week’s Re-Red covers a little creek fun, fire fighting and thunderstorms, the trip Quinlan, Jaxon, and I took to Fort Phil Kearny, tie-dying towels, a half-marathon runner, picking chokecherries, and the Ten Sleep Fish Hatchery.
