Testing Video Link
So… it’s easy to upload a video to Facebook. I’m trying to see if I can link to it here, so everyone can see it… even those of you who aren’t on Facebook! Well, it looks like the correct link came through, so I will post this short video of some elk through the trees,…
Done
Tess and I went back to the barn and finished it up! Not that it doesn’t need reinforced, rebuilt, and rechinked, but we’ve done what we can until someone helps us put chicken wire up to stop critters from getting into the tack room. (unfortunately, lots of things like chewing on the salt residue left…
Family Resemblance
They do it without realizing… Every time they do, and we catch them at it, we girls laugh… but there’s plenty of times we find ourselves doing the same thing, and we’re not blood related! Is it because of our situation, lifestyle, or the fact that we spend so many hours together? There’s no doubt…
Preg Test Retreat
I went and reviewed my post from 2010… the Greet Ranch Annual Labor Day Preg Test Retreat … and not that much has changed! We don’t do it on Labor Day, well at least for the past few years, and we’ve spread the work out over days… Victoria and I were reminiscing about it last…

Wordless Wednesday – “Git Her”

Back to the Barn
No, not Born in a Barn, but back to it. We started a remodel job of sorts a while ago. Tired of stacking saddles three high in our little tack room, we expanded it. However, we never really finished it. Tess and I attacked it and made good progress. Another day of sorting off old…
Go!
Meet the coming week head on… Let the wind blow your ears back and GO!
Crafting Ideas
This week will be filled with cow work, but before it all starts, I’m trying to get a few things started to donate to the library’s Harvest Dinner Auction. It’s not until October 13, but that just means it’ll be here before I know it… I’m looking into putting some of my photos onto unique…
