This was first posted March 8, 2011. Oh, you guys always amaze me at your great questions! I know I say that often… but you still keep coming up with good ones! Question: were you living on the ranch in 1988 during the great Yellowstone Park fire? and if so, what did you experience from…
Wordless Wednesday: “Variety”

Cool Idea, Cody
I had to run up to Cody today… where I spied the following… Six clear plexiglass geodesic domes sit on the lawn next to the Visitor’s Center. Today was very warm, 59 degrees, but, being Cody, there was also a brisk wind blowing. These, I supposed would provide a wind proof place to enjoy the…
This Week
Megan and I worked on her table. I thought it was going to get its final coat today. I think the base is complete and Megan is happy with it. I applied one coat this morning and then went back for the last one. My first coats always left a bit of rough spots where…
Class Reception
Last night, Victoria and her boys had come to visit, and as Toria and I stayed up late talking, I leaned back in my recliner and Pop! Suddenly, my decorative lights went out. “What did you do?” she asked? Come to find out, when I leaned back, an electrical cord got sliced in half by…
#TBT: In The Mood for Babies, v.2.0
This was first posted February 24, 2011. Well, we have babies! Two as a matter of fact! No pictures simply because I wasn’t told about them until after 6 pm when Vernon arrived home for supper. Honestly, I was at the Master Cattleman class again so I wouldn’t have been around anyway… We’ll see if…

Helping Hand
Clouds nestled down on top of us this morning, the grey sky dropping more snow, the wind staying at a whisper, the temperature frigid. My chickens were left locked in their warm coop. I made my way to Megan’s house to apply another coat of poly on the sunflower table. The sudden call of a…
Cold and Crafts
The temperature has been in the single digits most of the day, with snowfall of about 3”. Right now, we’re setting at -3 with a 3 mile per hour wind. I’ll certainly take it over the 99 mph wind gust measured down along I-25 today! Tomorrow’s high is supposed to be 3. Definitely not pleasant….
3, 2, 1, Action!
Years ago, we did it. And, no surprise to me, I blogged about it HERE. (One of the best things about blogging for so long… I can go back and read my entries and get a kick out of my own stories!) But that was years ago. While it worked well for a few seasons,…
Last Class
The last class for Ledger Art Tradition was held today. Next Saturday will be our artist reception. Today, I chose to draw Vernon’s grandmother. This has always been a favorite of mine. I chose to draw her on some vintage 1933 letter paper. I also included a 1936 check to “Our Selves” for $5.00 and…
