Gates

Posted on July 26, 2022July 26, 2022

Cowboy Courtesy says as a bunch of you are riding along, the guy on the fastest walking horse, and, therefore, the first to reach a gate, opens it. Now Panama is a slow walking horse and I usually was trailing behind… which was fine, it gave me opportunity to take pics, or I was behind…

Princess

Posted on July 25, 2022July 25, 2022

Ran over to Worland to see Lacee crowned as the Washakie County Fair Junior Princess. She has a lot more confidence than I did when I was eight! They even asked her questions on stage and her answers were more than just ”world peace”. (anyone get that movie reference?) I’ll include her video in a…

Hike

Posted on July 24, 2022July 24, 2022

We went for a hike today, looking for a spring. Vernon had been to it years ago and we thought it’d be easy enough to find. There was an old road that would take us close to it. Trouble was, not much of the road was passable! Too many downed trees and new growth… it…

NDotAC

Posted on July 23, 2022July 23, 2022

National Day of the American Cowboy. Most people don’t know the difference between a cowboy and a rancher and that’s ok. We’re still out here, backs bent, head down, teeth gritted, meeting whatever comes our way. We’re part of that 1.5% of the population feeding 330 million three meals a day. Sometimes it seems like…

Springtime Ranching Video

Posted on July 22, 2022July 22, 2022

With the recent heat, it’s nice to watch the snow in this video from April 1 – 16! The False Spring continues and I burn a little extra weed patch along my garden fence. I put some grandkids to work, digging, cleaning, and dehydrating what carrots I have left over from winter. My husband works…

#TBT: No Challenge, v.2.0

Posted on July 21, 2022July 21, 2022

This was first posted July 22, 2011. Challenges come in all forms and sizes. My last challenge was one I did not relish. Since my pocketbook is too tight for me to hire the vet to drive the 47 miles to my house from his clinic… I was faced with driving my Durango full of…

Wordless Wednesday: ”A Girl and Her Painted Pony”

Posted on July 20, 2022July 20, 2022

This view makes me allergize, but if you’d like to put together a jigsaw puzzle of Lorelei sitting in the mountain grass with her painted pony (left over from the costume contest), go HERE.

Wonders

Posted on July 19, 2022July 19, 2022

Victoria and boys came back over to help move another bunch of cattle… We had six grandkids mounted and five adults. We do tend to take a while getting ready with that many horses to saddle! We were off and hauling up the mountain. Victoria’s boys haven’t spent that much time in the saddle, so…

Waiting

Posted on July 18, 2022July 18, 2022

Horribly hot here about like everywhere else… I’ve been able to hide out inside catching up on house duties… and watering my lawn and garden! Tomorrow’s high is predicted to ”only” be 88°, so cow work coming up! This photo was from the other day… waiting for the cows and calves to find each other…

Rodeo Time

Posted on July 16, 2022July 16, 2022

Let’s see… It’s super hot… work on the ranch is temporarily on hold… must be time for the Kids Rodeo! Lacee carried the Wyoming flag in the Grand Entry… Jaxon and Quinlan and two others sang the National Anthem… With that… we’re off to another year of competition. First up, the costume contest! Reagan was…

Welcome to Bayer Creek

Posted on July 15, 2022July 15, 2022

We took our cows to a new pasture today. I was dreading it, knowing we might have to trail through another pasture full of cattle. Thankfully, most of those cattle had moved on… so our new trail was a pretty easy drive! We only had to correct the girls a few times, thankfully, they were…

Carol, Wyoming rancher

Since 2008, I’ve kept this photographic journal of life on a Wyoming ranch.  I share ranch work, my family, crafts and DIY, my English Shepherd, Bravo, and a love for this land.  Enjoy this red dirt country!
