This was first published July 17, 2014. This morning I hosted Ten Sleep’s summer school on a field trip. Their focus is on… bees! I decided I could help with that! First was a talk on my lawn… where we looked at new and old comb and dead bees and brood comb and drone comb…
Wordless Wednesday: There’s a Web
Vernon captured this photo and I thought it was too good to pass up for a puzzle pic! Points to those who can finish this title line from an old Girl Scout song… and the jigsaw is HERE.
This Day
The horses wait patiently as the semis are unloaded. I don’t know why I like these versions so much… but I do. They have an entirely different vibe from just transferring color to a basic black and white. Over exposed. Grainy. Gritty. Not that I would take all of my photos like this… Wyoming’s beauty…
Mooving Again
When six semi’s show up in your driveway first thing in the morning, you get the hint that you might have a big day. I chose to use a black and white filter. There’s definitely an old fashioned look to these photos. I’ll share more when I’m not falling asleep!
Library Class
I taught a tie dye class for adults at the library Friday night. After researching some amazing artists on YouTube (there are some crazy talented people out there), I chose to do an outline of symmetrical shapes or animal heads in class. We used just the more inexpensive tie dye kits on pillowcases and bandannas….
Job Done
Ugh. I bet I’ve drank two gallons of water since I got home. It was a hot, dusty day. While we made good time gathering… It’s all the pairing that takes time. And the fact that neighbors kept driving by while we were waiting for calves to find their mommas. We do enjoy visiting with…
Work
You know you’ve been working as a family for days when kids’ photos start looking like this… Quinlan: Asleep on the hard, hot flatbed… Lorelei: Asleep on the four wheeler while trucks are being loaded. Reagan: Asleep in my mini truck while we were pairing out… (and, yes, it is a blurry photo…) I know…
Throwback Thursday: Craig Johnson – One Book Wyoming
This was first posted July 11, 2014. Unreal that we’ve become friends with Craig over the years, and he continues to visit our library on a regular basis. Spirit of Steamboat is a great Longmire novella, and the poster is better if you read the book. No, we did not use this as the official…
Wordless Wednesday: Prairie Work
For a jigsaw puzzle of Megan riding/working this morning, go HERE.
Foam Party
oh, yeah. We had a Foam Party at the library in the middle of this busy week.
And More
And more…
My Home
Well, I kind of get caught up in the whole Independence Day thing… and I may share more, but we do also ranch around here… and our last drive I’ve neglected except for the one Family Drive photo I posted. It’s such a pretty pasture. It is steep. And rocky. And covered in lots of…
