After lunch, I decided to transfer the chickens back into the Puppy Coop. It was such a nice day, 40 and sunny, so it felt good to be out shuffling things around. I grabbed all my dog supplies, crates and tunnels and beds and toys and hauled them to the bunkhouse. The roost had been…
Questions and Answers – November 2012 Edition
Let’s get going! Sandy G.: Was there a reason for tying the twine on the chicken’s leg? (Keep it out of your garden, keep it nearby, or just for some fun!!) ??? (I am an ignoramus when it comes to chickens, so just wondering.) ;-} Sandy, I figured I needed a way to catch her……
Lookin’ Purty
No, I haven’t forgotten Q&A time… just busy. Supper for nine tonight…and then I just kicked back. I’ll answer those questions and comments tomorrow! It was -5º this morning… and probably colder now… there’s frost on the inside of my windows! The girls and I did manage a walk this morning, though… (I like how…
Proof of Snowfall
As Jaxon was being born… a cold front was moving into Wyoming. The prediction was for 2-4″ of snow, and much colder temperatures. Amazing how dropping barometric pressure can bring on labor! We started receiving very light snow a couple of hours before we decided to drive to Worland to see Jaxon. We didn’t think…
Reinforcements
First of all, my apologies for not posting last night. Got home at 8 pm, ate some supper, sat down on the couch and about 9:30 fell asleep. I woke up just after midnight with a crick in my neck, and just too out of it to even consider booting up my Mac and writing…

What About You?
Since I’ve put out the call for questions for this month’s Q&A… I’d like to ask for suggestions as well… What *haven’t* I covered in blog posts? (stay away from personal items, I won’s share that! ) (I still have to make a solar oven… I haven’t forgotten… and I never touched too much on…
Just Ducky
After I finished canning the last 5 pints of salsa for the year, and cleaning house, and looking for calendar photos… I headed outside for some fresh air. I drove up and examined the center pivot from close up… still no power… and a few other things left to do… but I must say it…

Minute Slide Show: Shaw Pasture
Yay! Accomplished this little job in between raking leaves and cleaning house! Amazing how easy it is if you don’t wait until 11 pm to do things like this! Here’s a little slide show, sharing our 5 hours of trailing cows to our Shaw Pasture. Beautiful day… 60 something degrees… no wind… barely any dust……
Aflame
Oh, I really really need to catch up on my sleep… so the little slideshow I thought about making is going on tomorrow’s schedule. We moved cows again today… A gorgeous 5 hours of work! Hopefully, I can be creative throughout tomorrow and have it ready for you. Until then, Thursday morning’s sunrise was brilliant…
Minute Movie: Trailing By
This Minute Movie is twice as long as normal… but I just couldn’t resist the peacefulness that saturates this video! We are letting the cows trail by… Vernon on horseback in the middle of the gate, getting a good count as they walk past. Daniel leaves my side, and walks to the back of the…
