Yup. It’s true. January 20, 2008, I began this blog! After following some blogs out there… and having people question me about my life through my Rimrock English Shepherds website… I hemmed and hawed and bit my fingernails and kicked some dirt and stuck my hands in my pockets. “Yeah, OK. I can do this.” After…
Wordless Wednesday – “It Came From Beyond”
Wordless Wednesday this week reminds me of an old Sci Fi movie… (and goodnight, it’s NOT SyFy!)… “It Came From Beyond!” …but really the haze and cold sky just make the sun *look* like it’s about to go nova! **** January 19, 2010 No entry. January 19, 2009 Dally Learns (Video)
No Green
We were away from the place today. We made a mad dash to Montana to pick up a new flat bed trailer… one that the guys hope to create a bale feeder from. Now, it takes almost 4 hours to get there… and it’s just outside of Billings. Billings! Billings is huge anymore, well, huge…
Enjoying Themselves
I spent too long at a friend’s house this evening… I just drove home through a ghostly fog… It’s late and I’m going to shortchange you with a video from last week. The snow was magical this day… so soft and fluffy, my snowshoes were almost no help at all… The dogs were enjoying themselves…
In The Works
Well, I’ve known before that I hate hinges… for some reason, they puzzle me up! Because of that simple little quirk, I didn’t accomplish anything with my dresser today except for sanding the drawer front. Yes, due to popular demand, I’m going to attempt to leave it on! I’m glad everyone supported that idea… I…
After Shot… Kinda
The other day, I gave you the “before” shot of an old dresser I am repurposing for our “new” entertainment center. So, I’ve spent a few days sanding off 95% of the old varnish… boy, it sure smelled like kerosene… I’ve taken off the old knobs… and rubbed it down with tung oil. Today, it looks…
Snake – The Video
I’m very happy so many of you enjoyed the story of Snake from yesterday. I’m also glad I wasn’t the only one who could remember the Shake ‘N’ Bake commercial from way back when where the little girl says in a cute southern accent, “and ah heoppt!” Ali and Vince, it is illegal to have…
The Story
Last week, a friend told me a story… They live alongside a small creek dotted with stately cottonwood trees. In the wintertime, it’s not unusual to see a bald eagle perched among the bare branches. Sliding along their long snowy driveway, they noticed a bald eagle on the ground, perhaps it had a rabbit or…

Fair Weather Cowgirl
We’ve received 10″ of snow with this storm, more than we’ve had for quite a while! 4″-5″ were predicted, so when it dumped this on us, we were surprised! It is very light and fluffy… even my snowshoes yesterday didn’t make much of a difference! Since we were due to bring our cows in from…
Due To The Weather
Let’s just say it snowed a tad here last night and today. Enough that I took my snowshoes when I walked my dogs! My usual trail to the dam and beyond was more than I could stand, I barely made it to the dam! The dogs were exercised as well as I was. Elsa, being…
