These girls are having a grand time trying on cowboy hats and holding up pairs of chaps. This was originally entitled “Girls with Chaps”.
Wordless Wednesday – “Good Morning”
Good Morning Puzzle
Trailing Down
Saddle at 7. Drive up the mountain. Unload. Start taking pics and video to share with you! The cows went pretty good until the Slope Pasture and. then. they. would. not. move. Yell and whistle. Chase through the rocks and down the hill. Panama is tired. Eden is tired. Break for lunch at the bottom…
Mountain Snow
I was prepared. Flannel lined jeans. Four layers (tshirt, flannel shirt, sweatshirt, Carhartt jacket). Gloves, scarf. It wasn’t the snow, up on the mountain, it’s the Wind. But actually, it was kinda nice! If the wind died down or I was in the trees or down in a bottom, I was overdressed. But on the…

Absolutely pouring rain for the badlands and Worland area… this evening it’s started over here. We were going to preg test today, but cancelled, and I’m very glad we did. We would have been cold, wet, and miserable. SO. More pics from yesterday. Sunrise. The rainbow ends in a can on the post… should be…
The Sky Doesn’t Fit In My Camera Lens
Predicted rain showers and cool winds. Nevertheless, we decided to wean our small bunch of calves, so the boys and I saddled our horses, and Johnny and Vernon loaded their four wheelers into a different horse trailer, and we were off! This leased pasture is only about a half an hour’s drive from home, but…
