Use your imagination… what does that rock on top remind you of? A bear? What about now? It’s the same rock, just zoomed in and slightly different angle…

A bit more work on the new sheds… Once we’d had a good look at our new little additions to our calving shed, we noticed some difficulties. The gates were shorter than we expected. We quickly decided that a riled heifer could attempt an escape over the low gate. Now, granted, most of our heifers…
Warmth
Vernon has been working on our calving shed. With the expansion of our new added sheds (which aren’t yet in their new positions), the calving shed area needed new lighting. We’re also trying something else new, infrared heat. Our calving shed has two indoor pens, and the others are in an open faced three sided…
#TBT: Opening Water Holes Video
For this week’s Throwback Thursday, I’m reposting a video much like the one I did just a few weeks ago, but this one is from 2012. If you’re looking at the country, or the activity, it’s still the same. We’re all older, though, all the dogs have died, and we’ve sold the blue pickup. In…

Renaissance Again
Yesterday I shared about the Renaissance Cafe in Greybull, Wyoming. I talked of the atmosphere, the tea, and the scrumptious food. That is not the entire experience, though! While you might be taken in by the huge portraits on the wall, the assorted tea cups and saucers, and the leopard print and Marie Antoinette on…
Day Out at the Renaissance
Tess’ birthday is this week. Last week, we had a chance to go out to eat as part of her celebration. I’ve wanted to go here for months, as I follow the Renaissance Cafe on Facebook. It is in Greybull, Wyoming, so it was going to be an outing! What an outing it was, too!…
Ranchlife- Winter Fencing Video
This week’s recap of Red Dirt In My Soul covers only January 8 – January 10, 2021. Ranchlife continues with the grandkids enjoying some fresh snow and sledding at my house. “Lookout below!” A frosty morning captures my camera lens and I have to take multiple photos of the delicate patterns on windows and weeds….
Smear
I decided to embrace the smear… Well, maybe I overdid it, but it’s hard to take a good picture at night under fluorescent lights! This one’s not quite finished, but it’s close! These little blocks are a kick to design, burn, and paint…
Stand In
The cows have been gathered from the Badlands. A few “housekeeping” actions needed to be done… sorting and worming to name a few. Once again, the guys planned it for a Wednesday. I work only two days a week, but it seems like often it’s one of the days I’m at the library when things…
#TBT: Snowfall Video
When I looked back for an old video for this Thursday’s post, I just had to choose this one. After a big snowstorm, I take all my dogs for a walk… or try to. They aren’t very enthusiastic about the deep snow, and I’m huffing and puffing along on snowshoes! For those of you who’ve…
