Last week I met with a wonderful person. Friend of a friend, faithful reader of this blog, and computer nerd, if I may call her that… She had found where she could look up the name of the photo I have used on every blog post since the beginning. The beginning. In 2008!!!! What does…

Good Books, Good People
Well, I’m down in Casper attending the Wyoming Library Association meeting. Internet has been spotty, with absolutely none in my hotel room. So here I sit, in the wide main hallway at 10:30 at night, typing away on my ipad. It is always an enjoyable meeting, with great ideas to take back to Ten Sleep…

Catch Me
Long day of work pregging cows… I’m tired. No pics, not now anyway…. Catch me tomorrow!

Honey Harvest from My Top Bar Hives
Before we get to the honey… We vaccinated our just weaned calves today… I took the easy job of running them up the alleyway, and let the boys give the shots! I only took one photo today, and that was of our pinkeye calf. Cattle get pinkeye just like humans… usually starting with some irritation…
