Vernon returned from feeding this morning with an idea to attend an auction. I grabbed some coats, threw myself together (thank goodness for baseball caps!) and we were off! While there’s the appeal of buying something you need or want or justcan’tpassupthisdeal… you can’t help but feel for the guy selling out. Cars and pickups…
Marcus Huff
WOW. That was fun! The Ten Sleep Library was full tonight of history buffs, ready to listen to Marcus Huff spin tales about the real Billy the Kid. For my share of the refreshments, I made apple roses. I have to admit, they did turn out quite pretty! But, hey, forget the food… We came…
Talking About Billy
Tomorrow night, I get to work at the library with a guest speaker. Marcus Huff lives just outside of Ten Sleep. He is the former Editor of True West magazine, and a frequent contributor to The History Channel, Discovery, PBS, NPR, and Fox Television. He will be coming to speak on Billy the Kid, although…
Wordless Wednesday – “Library of Wisdom”
“A library of wisdom, is more precious than all wealth, and all things that are desirable cannot be compared to it. Whoever therefore claims to be zealous of truth, of happiness, of wisdom or knowledge, must become a lover of books.” Plato

Saturday
It was a nice day, over 50˚, sunny… and I was just thinking about going to check on my bees… when I noticed a large dark cloud. Within minutes it was cloudy, the wind picked up… THEN THE WIND PICKED UP! We ended up with a gust of 49 mph, Tess had 54! It maintained…
Bale Feeder Video
Video! Yay! Years ago, the guys started working on building a bale feeder. They bought a flatbed trailer and started designing. Now, you know how we feed the cows EVERY DAY in the winter. It takes two guys… One to drive the tractor and one to pitch the hay off the trailer with a pitchfork. …
Miss Eden
Fighting my computer tonight… hopefully video tomorrow! Little Miss Eden kept the cows under control while I was filming my upcoming video.
Entertainer
It was a lovely day, warm, sunny… but I was quickly reminded after I walked outside in my cowboy boots, that warm sunny days just make snow into mush and/or ice… either way, SLICK. It’s much like March… Vernon had to go to town… Awwwwww, look! He can be a sweetie! I regret not throwing…
