Today was the last of Longmire Days and I did the practical thing of doing laundry and dishes and all that yucky, normal, un-fun stuff. Until 4:30. Then I flew up the mountain to the pig roast and concert with the cast and other notables in attendance at South Fork Mountain Lodge. It’s not clear…
Yeehaw
So… another long day, though very enjoyable and actually COOL. Yes, folks, I said, COOL. 99.9% of Kids’ Rodeo days have been unbearably HOT, dry, dusty, sweaty days, but not today! If you wanted Longmire Days photos, you’ll have to wait… and, yes, I know I still have questions to answer from the other day……
Wow, What a Day!
Only a couple of minutes left in Friday, and man, what a day! The past 36 hours have kept me rocking and rolling and laughing and enjoying. First of all… remember I shared a while back that I had been selected as a Voices of the Year (VOTY) honoree at BlogHer? And that, although I…
Tipi Q & A
Well, my post from the other day spurred lots of questions about my sister’s tipi, so I thought I’d share more pics, explain a bit more, maybe help you understand some things! First of all, there’s the Way Back Machine and my post about my sad little wrinkly tipi from clear back in 2008!!!! Holy…
Fishing Video
Fishing from Carol Greet on Vimeo. (Not his best cast, but the best I got on video!) **** Last chance for questions! Post them here…
Rainstorms Dance
It looks like my tipi post has inspired some great questions… but I’ll give it a couple of more days for another question or two to come in as well! Today we blasted our way over the mountain to Matthew’s dedication in Kaycee. After church, Victoria hosted us at the park, with a great playground…
Guest House
After we’d soaked up the ambiance from Medicine Lodge State Park… My sister and I were in the mood for this… A rainbow appeared in the distance! I left for home right here… the hard work was done… and it just needed staked and tightened. Please note: Our wonderful blue skies have returned!!!! But later…
Wyoming’s 125th
I had a story to tell with lots of photos… unfortunately, the internet doesn’t seem to be very cooperative tonight! I’ll try that tale again tomorrow! I had a very busy day trying to mow and weed eat everything I could… but then tonight, I had to take a young man and his Spiderman fishing…
Dig Deep
Today I helped out at Ten Sleep’s summer school! They were going to one of my favorite places, Medicine Lodge State Park, just north of the town of Hyattville. Their theme this summer is “Dig Deep”, so I got to talk archaeology! This is the perfect spot for it, having had multiple digs on the…
Wordless Wednesday -“Wool Insulation”
When it’s hot (and, boy, it’s been HOT), sheep stand together and pant. These bucks were doing that the other day… wool insulation, I suppose.
Smoke
I haven’t seen it this bad since Yellowstone burned. Canadian forest fire smoke has made its way into the Big Horn Basin, and the past week has been miserably smokey. Small rain showers and wind haven’t helped. This *is* smoke, not lowered clouds with rain. My red hills have disappeared! At least I can still…
