Mother’s Day was cold and windy. Our planned trip in the side by side was tabled. We stayed out of the weather until finally Vernon suggested we just take the pickup. It’s a slower trip but warmer! Halfway up there, I received a Facetime video from Victoria. We sat there in the pickup and had…
Happy Mother’s Day
I hope you enjoyed Mother’s Day!
Wildflower Break
I’m finally back to feeling well after catching what I assumed to be Reagan’s case of strep throat. With all of the rain and now a couple of nice spring days, the grass has jumped and everything looks SO GREEN. I spent the day wanting to mow my yard, but first I had to pick…
Confab
Some kind of confab is going on, but I’m too far away to hear!
#TBT: Dying Campfire, v.2.0
This was first published May 3, 2011. Plus some updated commentary at the end for you to read… My day started early with an ambulance call, so I’m ready for bed! After my return home this morning, the rest of the day seemed very uneventful, and yes, I start to worry about my topic for…
Wordless Wednesday – “Spring Drift”
Phlox is one of the first wildflowers of spring, delighting everyone with tiny white drifts scattered across the prairie. It sure beats those other kinds of drifts… For a jigsaw puzzle of this flower, go HERE.

More Pics
Just for fun… More pics from branding.
Auction!
We attended an auction today. Have you ever been to one? It seems to be more rare these days as people tend to go to online auctions instead of in person… but there we were. Wandering around. Checking out the few things we had an interest in. Visiting with neighbors, friends, and relatives. I was…
Happy Dance
It’s been so long… we don’t know how to act. Over an inch of rain since yesterday… and almost 2.5” for the month! It is a royal, muddy mess outside and everyone is loving it. There’s water running in the draws and puddling in the low spots. Tomorrow is supposed to be nice then more…
#TBT: ”Stupid Turkeys”, v.2.0
This was first posted April 28, 2011. These are turkeys. Trust me. I know. They are NOT bulls in the neighbor’s place… they are Vagrant Delinquent Escapees from our pasture where they rightfully belong eating OUR green grass, not the neighbor’s. Therefore, they are Turkeys with a capital T. Especially since Vernon had already repaired…
