I came home from work yesterday to see Daniel harrowing the field below my studio. He needed to go run in the horses for the farrier, so I said I’d take over! Boomer likes to ride along with Daniel… say, “HI”, Boomer! It’s been a while since I’ve been farming with a tractor instead of…
Squeeeeeeeee!
It’s been over two weeks and I’ve been given the OK to share the news! We’re thrilled to announce the arrival of Lorelei to the Greet Ranch crew! You don’t get much newer than that photo! Here she was a week ago… And a day or two ago… We’re so very excited to have her…

If I know anything, it’s that my readers are great and knowledgeable people! So, I’m asking for help with this. This is my formerly gorgeous crabapple tree. Last summer, we had a guy take down an antenna tower next to my house. To drop it, he said he might have to clear a branch or…
Baby Chick Update
Good ol’ winter isn’t done with Wyoming yet! Interstate 80 was closed all day yesterday and today due to blizzard conditions. Two feet of snow fell on Casper Mountain. Here, thankfully, we received just a skiff. As usual, Vernon says it’s much dryer just a bit farther north… which is good, since wet conditions and…

Yesterday, they held a ranch horse competition, and then this morning they had a preview which…

Blog and Light
I received a note from GoDaddy, with whom I’ve had this website and blog since 2008, that they are discontinuing their old product I used to use and shutting it down June 25. What does that mean to you? Well, maybe nothing, unless you’re the curious type and like to investigate blogs and read every…
Washable
Ranchlife. It’s a man’s world. Where you have to put the pedal to the metal and hold onto your hat! (Especially when Grandma is driving the Rhino!) Where mud is just another word for fun! Where it’s best to remember… everything is washable.
Headed for Bed
Holy cow. I do believe I’m sore this evening. I tried to finish mowing my lawn with the little lawnmower, and I failed. I try to scalp back the grass, lifting leaves and dead grass out as well… I kept running out of gas! Me. Not the lawnmower. Most of the collection went onto the…
