The guys headed out horseback this morning, just to ride the corner of the pasture and kick any of our cows on through. Tomorrow is the start of our big gather, and if we could ease some through ahead of the big crunch, it would help. They found a few, but it looks like we…
Queen Journey
Better late than never, I suppose. Although I’ve driven by the Bee Barn and was happy to see bees entering and exiting my three hives, it’s never worked out, either temperature or time-wise, for me to open the hives and do my spring time check. Until today. What I found was not good. There’s worker…
Perfect Picnic
Today was one of our last carefree days for a time… so we declared it Picnic Day. This momma prairie dog wasn’t shy in the least. I don’t believe she gets much company… The top “bubble” in The Bubbles rock formation. Pretty day. Hot dogs over a campfire. Laughter. Stories. Learning. Perfect.
New Girls
Greet Ranch has a couple of new girls! Meet Jaycee and Jackie… These two little ponies will be a start for all the grandkids… getting them used to balance and movement, confidence and fun. We were scrambling for the right tack, cobbling together saddles and bridles and laughing at our full sized horse blankets on…
New Creations
Another rainy afternoon… so here’s my collection so far…

Wordless Wednesday – “Lupine Landscape”

Third
Well, I told Tess about the great wildflowers, and we decided it was perfect for Lacee’s third birthday photos… I loaned her my old cowboy hat… and I gotta say, the girl rocked my hat!
Bloom
We actually had some sunshine today! I managed to haul some compost… and spread it in my garden and rototill it in for the first time. I, then, decided to run up the hill and get some white gypsum rocks for my flower bed… and I found flowers… thousands and thousands of flowers. This rain…
Branding Favorite
Honestly. More rain and cool weather… better than the snow they received further south of us… but still. In a place you shouldn’t whine about rain… everyone is starting to whine about rain (and snow). I didn’t accomplish much today, so here’s another favorite from branding. Caught in the moment when the wrestling team has…
