Working at the library doesn’t leave me much room for ranchlife… I did manage another pic for my watercolor Art Challenge… and a great sunrise…
Wordless Thursday – “Pic Four”
That would be an oops on the Wordless Wednesday tradition… Today… Picture #4.
Soldier On
Day Three of my “Let’s Create” Challenge: Vernon is in bed. I gather my watercolor palette, paper, brushes, and a small container of water. Sitting on my couch… I choose a photo to paint from my ipad collection. Today, it’s going to be my rooster, Spot. He’s actually nice, and photogenic! I’m trying to soften…
Let’s Create!
A day of snow (yay!) and babysitting… while Jaxon and Lacee took naps, I pulled out my watercolors and postcards and went to work. A gallery in Casper has issued a “one painting a day in February” challenge. Now, I’m not *really* participating… they’re meeting to share and encourage each other… I’m here. But, hey,…
Hidden Helper
After I rescued Dally yesterday… I decided I’d better check on my cat. I teetered to the top of the stacked boards and peered up over the miscellany stored in the rafters of the wood shed. Well, hellllloooooo, Gorgeous! Golly, you aren’t my cat! I don’t know if it belongs to the neighbors or was…
Adventure Dog
Every day is a New Adventure. I heard barking. I whistled. Lucas looked at me and followed me to the chicken coop, but the girls were AWOL. I fed and watered the chickens, still hearing barking in the distance. It sounded like they were in the brush patch below Brandon’s house. Who knows? Skunk? Coon? …
Birthday Shoes
I had to finish these today… for Tess’ birthday! Hope you enjoy them, Tess!
Helpful Tip
When moving cows along a road… should you desire to split them… I have the technique for you to try. First, get your horse herd to stand in the middle of the road. Now, how you accomplish this is up to you… ours seemed to be well trained at this! It was a standoff! The…
Here’s Your Sign
Lookie, lookie! Brandon gave me this sign… and we hung it on the kennel door. He cut it out of steel and gave it little hangers to bend over the wire. Originally, I think we planned for a portable kennel door, but since it doesn’t get used much, if at all… we put it here….
Squint and Back Away Slowly
I felt a little “off”… laid around for a little bit… discovered, thankfully, that it wasn’t the horrid flu that is consuming Ten Sleep at this time… but I took the “time off” to finish a new pastel. You know, I think I do pretty good, then I see someone else’s *real* talent… and I…
Nowood Creek Ice Puzzle
We have received NO new snow in the past week. It’s actually been fairly nice, with temps wandering up into the low 40˚s. The sun warms it up quite nice and the wind has been nonexistent or just a slight breeze. Now, if it can hold on through calving season… ha! We would have actually…
