Sorry about the late night and uncooperative computer last night… it was one of those my-eyes-are-slamming-shut-and-what-IS-my-computer’s-problem? nights. The elk are busy bugling in our field tonight… would love to put that on Periscope… I wonder if people would listen without being able to see them… I don’t know what a spot light would do to…
Longmire
Another day of library work… nothing too special there. But today was the premiere of Season Four of my favorite television show on Netflix, and I just had to watch tonight! If you’ve followed me very long, you know I’m a fan of Craig Johnson who writes the Walt Longmire book series. I tried to…
Paint Project
Fall is definitely in the air… nights are cool enough that my window fan is TOO cool by morning, hence another blanket on the bed. September will be a busy month, cow work is coming up, my annual trip to the Wyoming Library Association meeting in Cheyenne, plus a fun day or two planned as…
Labor Day Weekend
While the Labor Day weekend has been full of company and activities, most pics have been of the grandkids whose photos I can’t post! There’s wading in the creek and sweeping “roads” in the dust on the shop’s concrete floor. There’s riding in the Rhino and fighting with your brother. There’s riding on the Row…
Something in the Air
And, thankfully, tonight it’s NOT smoke…
Skyline Rainbow
Again. Smoke. Right by Rome Hill Road… and the boys take off. Vernon stays at home, just in case. Half an hour later… smoke about two miles away. Off he goes. The boys get alerted they might need to leave the other fire, where there are other tankers and fighters and come back closer to…
Big Trails Dispatch
Unfortunately, I had the chance to be Big Trails Dispatch once again. A small lightning storm blew through just after supper, with a few nice CRAAAAACKS on top of us. When the phone rings about two minutes later… your first response is “craaaaaaap”. (Sorry about the vulgarity there…) The guys soon rolled on to the…
Shiver
Another favorite. “Ernest Greet and Shiver” What a horse Shiver was! and doesn’t it make you wonder… how’d he get that name?
Cool
I feel like I didn’t accomplish much today… They weren’t very physical, I guess! I started to scan some of the old family photos… after figuring out the best way to do it, it went fairly fast. Scanning at a higher dpi slowed the process down extensively, so I didn’t. I imagine I may regret…
Coating of Pine
There’s one set of cows we have still running in conjunction with the neighbor’s… Today we split the herd to take them to better pastures. No dogs got to play today because the other cattle aren’t “dog broke” and they will just go on the fight and not want to move. Well, that was the…
