We moved 70 or so pairs a couple of miles today. It was warm on the mountain, though we all came prepared with jackets or sweatshirts… never quite trusting that it won’t be cold and breezy! Lucas really wanted to come, but I think it would have been just a smidge too much. We thought…
Time Flies
Though his party was a little delayed due to cow work, I’d love to wish Quinlan a very, very happy first birthday! My how time flies… **** September 22, 2011 No entry. September 22, 2010 Wordless Wednesday – “Ride Into the Sunset” September 22, 2009 Salty Dog September 22, 2008 No entry.
Regrowth
Vernon and I made a mad dash in and out of Otter Creek Canyon… draining a pipeline before it freezes. Fall colors have definitely taken over the canyon. I had planned to take tons of photos, but we were buzzing in fast on the four wheeler at 6 pm, so those that weren’t exposed right…
I Love Questions…
Just another day at the library… though I must admit, my last minute Story Time theme of Pirates turned out rather well… Our regular person couldn’t make it, so we read The Treasure, made skull and crossbone flags, searched for diamonds and jewels (leftovers from Mardi Gras), and found a treasure chest in the back…
Wordless Wednesday – “Flaming Tree”
Sunglare on my camera lens makes this dead tree appear to be bursting into flame… Wordless Wednesday. **** September 19, 2011 Calendar Sized September 19, 2010 Twilight Zone September 19, 2009 Project Studio September 19, 2008 No entry.
Minute Movie: Elk Bugling on the Bar C
The breeze lifted the eerie, beautiful sound to Panama’s ears. He halted, unsure. His nostrils flared, and every muscle was gathered. Should he run? Ears intently forward, his eyes peered into the rising sun. Other sounds to his left captured his focus, he looked and whinnied. Two other horses and riders appeared by the large…
Live With It
Hmmm. On yesterday’s entry, I saw 7 comments… figured I was spammed! But, no! You were nice enough, once again, to encourage me, this time to write another kids’ book! Something with a ranch twist to it, instead of a dairy “feel”. Well, I have done that once… That’s how this blog turned into Red…
Pet Peeve #532
Pet peeve #532. So fifty feet away from Quinlan and I, is a corral full of commercial Angus… and I have to read a “farm” book to my grandson where all the cows are spotted. Please, someone write a kid’s book where there are BEEF cattle represented! Sigh. **** September 16, 2011 Eggs and Tomatoes…
Two and One
Their first preg testing weekend… didn’t get much work out of these three… (Yes, two in the stroller, one in the backpack!) **** September 15, 2011 Introducing… September 15, 2010 Wordless Wednesday – “And the Sky Is Not Cloudy All Day” September 15, 2009 Sale Barn September 15, 2008 Gotta Go (Yup.

Git ’em!
Long day. Great morning… riding through the trees… listening to elk bugle! Took video, it’s dusty and noisy with wind and camera noise, but if you pay attention, you definitely hear those bulls bugling and grunting. No time to upload it, though, after getting home, I started cooking for tomorrow’s big day. Maybe in a…
He’s Baaaaaaack!
He’s baaaaaaack! Just the other day, my entry from 2010 was about Rocky. Well, Rocky is back for another visit! I really wouldn’t mind running a boarding kennel… and Rocky doesn’t seem to think this is such a *bad* place… He’s managed to be taken on a walk every day he’s been here. Nose to…
