This video covers March 3 – March 20, 2022. Calving season is in full swing on the ranch. Each calf will get an eartag, and an ear mark (which is a square underbite) and will be banded if it is a bull calf. All of which D does at the beginning of this movie. The…
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…
Wordless Wednesday: ”Red Gate”
For a jigsaw puzzle of this red gate, go HERE.
Sooo… Do I tell you about branding, or the branding we did yesterday, or what we did today? After a month or more of not having hardly any photos to share, I have plenty! Tess had to go to Cody today and Reagan has been a bit under the weather, so we decided she could…
Use
As we say around here… We got the use out of this day! Vernon is always out the door by 7 am if not earlier, and he quits at 6. After the feeding was done, I was to ride down with Brandon and Megan to help gather. That was 8:30 am or so. I walked…
Worry Wart
Parts of Wyoming received two feet of snow and high winds. We only received 3”, but it was a wonderful wet snow and we’re grateful. Any moisture is welcome since we’ve been in a drought for so long. We were back at the job of turning cows out to their spring pastures this afternoon. We…
Tea Photos
I awoke to 3” of wet, wet snow and sideways wind. Not the finest of weather, but much better than Wyoming further east where 1-2 feet of snow has fallen and created many a tall drift. We’re grateful for the moisture and five miles down the road, the snow was simply rain… Tasha was outgoing,…
Tea and Tasha
The Ten Sleep Library will be hosting a ”Spot of Tea” and Silent Auction tomorrow, with special guest, author Tasha Alexander. Tasha Alexander is the author of the Lady Emily mystery series. Set in Victorian England of the 1890-1900’s, Tasha’s books also roam across the area, from Paris to Greece, Germany to Africa. My favorite…
