As I’ve been preoccupied with Christmas, the guys continue to work on pipelines and installing water tanks. Victoria and I helped Brandon set one tank. The pipes had been run, the dirt filled back in, now to set the tank. White paint was inked onto the top of the pipe and the tank set in…
Delightful
I hope you had a great Christmas. We did. We are very blessed. Victoria had stayed for a couple of days and in between walks in the unseasonably warm weather, we managed a craft! Yay! I’m always up for making something. First we went to the creek to gather willows. Short. Straight. And hopefully, green…
Many Blessings
Here’s wishing you and yours many blessings during this holiday season.
Good Times
Victoria and crew are here… we’ve eaten, walked, talked, laughed, and played games. I hope your holiday season is full of good times as well…
Trail
Victoria and I are 76% done with the Trail of Tears. Our journey now turns northwest after heading southwest for days. We’ve had many river crossings as of late, some by ferry, some not. Crossings would not have been pleasant. I’ve asked if there is a way to find out which removal our ancestors were…
Scents of the Season
Author Craig Johnson once again shared his Longmire Christmas short story with the Ten Sleep Library and about 100 of our friends! The story may or may not have a certain black and white little critter as a central character in it. Our little library was about bursting at the seams, though the back room…
Little Red Truck
I have to share what fell into place the other day… a really sweet 1949 Ford truck is owned by a local guy, who works across the street from the library. He often parks the pickup behind the building. It’s such a great little truck! So I got a wild idea the other day… and…
Throwback Thursday: Again, v.2.0
This was first posted December 20, 2015. Cows had rubbed a gate down, and were where they weren’t supposed to be. Did I want to ride along with Brandon and see if a dog and I would be of any help? You bet! I don’t mind these little expeditions at all. It’s a good chance…
Wordless Wednesday: Grey Day
For a jigsaw puzzle of this grey day with Canada geese and a Bald Eagle, go here.
Recovering
I had to recruit help. With the addition of my new young hens, I’m getting eggs once again and I’m thrilled. But as I let them out into their new pen, I noticed a couple were limping. We had used a chicken hook to catch them the other day… had we hurt them? No. As…
Goodbye
Counting cows going past a corner is a talent and Quinlan gets his chance to practice. We try to count and keep track of our numbers… Jaxon and Quinlan work the back of the bunch, loading calves into the alley to be counted into the various compartments of the semi. The new corrals are working,…
