A half day trip to Cody with Vernon and Johnny… with lunch bought for us by Johnny, since today is our 35th anniversary! We ran into relatives… and searched for the wild horses, but didn’t find them… and came home and went back to work. No pics. No stories. A day just for us!
Megan’s Gift
With Megan and presents, you’ll have pretty good luck if it has something to do with the Beatles/1960’s or the Wizard of Oz… Sorry, Dorothy… I went with “Peace, Love, and Rock ‘n’ Roll”, oh, and a little hippy VW bug!
Perfect Night
The guys headed up the mountain to work on that pipeline from a while back… they’ve found the pipeline but had to hook it up to the tank and do some various improvements. Believe it or not, I didn’t tag along. This would normally be a perfect chance for me… I like going along and…
Rainy Day
More rain. Not much, .36″, but we will take what we can get… I spent this cool day catching up on laundry and finishing my first braided rein of my new set. I’m trying to decide if I will simply burn the ends off of my Terminal Turk’s Head knot, a style I don’t like……
New Buckets
It tried and tried and the clouds went north and the clouds went south, and FINALLY this afternoon it actually RAINED. I had thrown all my bedding from the trampoline inside and found a more or less indoor job… made a meatloaf for supper… posted on Facebook because… RAIN! And… It stopped. .03″ of an…
Extras
Besides running around with the cows… the guys have been thrashing our oats. I didn’t get pics of that, but we are baling the straw… And yes, we do know the old swather did a rotten job of cutting… Daniel’s been getting the pivot field ready for farming… but that’ll be another post. Me? A…
Questions and Answers – August 2016 Edition
Marilyn: How do you find buried pipeline? You must have some new device to do that? The device is called a shovel… a thing that doesn’t necessarily like to work on very hot days… 😉 Carole: I know you have lots and lots of acreage as do most ranches out there, so how far do…
Models
Today’s agenda: tour through the cows, elk, horses, deer. They were nice enough to pose.
Work and Play
Here’s a couple of shots just to show the difference… and why I like painting the old wood. I grant you “character” points, but just give the new paint a couple of years… Wyoming is pretty hard on paint! Two nights on the trampoline to watch the Perseids… the first night was amazing… last…
Red Photos
There’s nothing more frustrating than wandering around my house at night, wondering where in the sam hill my camera is… It’s usually so permanently attached to me until I get in the house and then it seems to go walkabout… I have been painting the past few days… a continuation of last year’s improvements around…
Break Time
I’m spending the night on the trampoline with two grandsons… and my daughter… so… I’m taking a break right now… they’re yelling for me! You can still post a question for the Q&A though!
