Spent the morning getting my last wheel installed on my minitruck… and then the guys aligned the front… which cost Brandon a gash on his forehead when a wrench slipped! So sorry, Brandon! But I’m very thrilled! There’s lots of projects just waiting for that truck! The afternoon was spent experimenting and cleaning up my…
Boom
Spent the entire day at a library training in Cody… so all I have is Boomer to keep you company!
Leeward
It snows. It melts. It snows. It melts. If it ever warms up around here, we’re gonna have good grass and wildflowers! Tomorrow’s supposed to be nice, but I’m headed to Cody for a library training. Saturday another storm moves in. Then… Then! It’s predicted to be nice for a *week*! That means I better…
Score!
Ranch Course Herding Level II: Out of the corral. Down the rocks. By the granary. Through the gate. Across the field to the corral. Score!
All Hands on Deck
It was a full day… feeding Daniel’s baby bulls… (Note the vultures soaking up the morning sun in the cottonwood behind them) Weighing, pouring, and vaccinating the yearling heifers… We weigh them individually to chart their growth, and pour de-wormer on their backs (like you put on tick and flea medicine on your dog) and…

Good Boys
The boys are gone, but Victoria and Matt came over to help in whatever way they could… The choice was made to move some more cows out to the BLM allotment. That left Megan and I to watch three little boys… and I let ’em go wherever they wanted! Mud puddle? You bet. Splash and…
Improvement
I’d say it’s an improvement!
Hugelkultur
Yup. A day that actually acted like April. It was great! Unfortunately, I spent most of it in the library… but that’s ok. It didn’t give me much of an opportunity to take photos, however… so instead, I’m going to share an idea that I ran across a couple of weeks ago. There’s another Wyoming…
Wordless Wednesday – “Chieftan”
Chieftan watches over springtime in the Big Horns.
All Progress
Most of the snow melted today… and if there’s one thing that will put a smile on a farmer’s face, it is timing the application of fertilizer so that a spring storm will take it into the ground. Vernon managed that today. It’s a fine line between frozen and muddy, because if there’s one thing…
