Can you spell sorrel? The red horses win! Out here we call ’em sorrels… back east, they might be called chestnut. Either way, they’re red! (YES… for you detail oriented people… one is a paint and one is a bay, but at first glance!) The day is over. It was CHILLY, though it was predicted…
Get Ready
Ready or not, here it comes. Today I’d get something done, then lay down for a bit, and then get up and cook some more. Thank goodness I went with Matt’s suggestion of Frito Pie for branding again. I did it last year and it was very easy… I’m so glad I’m not having…
Driveway Gift
I don’t feel good and didn’t accomplish a thing for branding. That means tomorrow I HAVE to cook while the kids and friends gather the pasture. Hate to miss it, but just couldn’t motivate. Not looking for sympathy, just stating a fact! The rain did leave me a gift at the end of my driveway……
Wordless Wednesday – “A Little Rounder”
Dally starts to show her pregnancy… a little rounder… a little sleepier… a little more contemplative… **** May 11, 2010 Enough For Her (one of my favorite entries!) May 11, 2009 Rush Rush May 11, 2008 No entry.
Stay Tuned
So after our 2 day run to Laramie and back, it was back to farming. With the late spring and plentiful moisture, the guys have been squeezing in any farming they could do anywhere! I’ve been trying to finish painting the basement, and since we know how boring that is… I took my doggies for…
Where the Laughter Remains
So we made that 6 hour car trip to Laramie… pretty much exactly like last year… except… It was Brandon graduating, not Daniel. We didn’t try to do it all in one day (who’s getting smarter?) The windmill farm is now complete. We met someone infamous (if you’re a Wyoming Cowboy fan). (OK, FYI, this…
3 For 3
I’ve been gone. Thanks to a scheduler on my blog posts, you probably didn’t even miss me! Today has me catching a cold and sore and tired from my trip. So I’m cheating again. I’m going to write when I feel better again, and right now isn’t it! But here’s my reason for my trip….

Dying Campfire
My day started early with an ambulance call, so I’m ready for bed! After my return home this morning, the rest of the day seemed very uneventful, and yes, I start to worry about my topic for the evening. Then while I’m doing dishes… I turned on my little tv. I’ve never had a tv…
