Maybe you’ve seen them, cute short videos of younger women showing off their fashion style. Fixing their hair, layering on jewelry, applying makeup, dressing to the nines. An internet friend of mine does it all the time… check out Prairie Wife In Heels if you get a chance. They’re cute little videos… so as I…
Arapaho Ranch Show
They held a photography show at the Arapaho Ranch mansion today. Four of my high/low key portraits were chosen. After going on display around the Big Horn Basin, they will find home at the Wyoming State Museum. Built in the Italian villa style in 1918, the mansion was a beautiful setting. Rough around some of…
Say Goodbye
Say goodbye to one of the prettiest falls we’ve had in a LONG time. While the boxelders are past their prime, the cottonwoods run the gamut from barely turning to losing their leaves. One tree in my yard is green, another is sifting leaves onto my roof. They’ll both be hit with snow on Sunday…
#TBT: The Love of the Hunt, v.2.0
This was first published October 27, 2011. I chose this one, as Daniel has just bagged a Very Nice Mule Deer Buck… I’ve mentioned before… it’s hunting season around here. If you don’t appreciate that… perhaps you should skip this post. Catch up with me tomorrow… But I’m gonna tell a huntin’ story! I grew…

For a jigsaw puzzle of our cattle winding their way down the mountain, go HERE.
New Award
The National Weather Service finally posted the award they gave Johnny last week. Fifty five years of weather observation! This was supposed to be given to him a year and a half ago… I was bummed I couldn’t make the presentation, but we had less than 12 hours notice! oh, well… It’s an amazing honor…
Summer House to Winter House
The days are gorgeous, giving us brilliant fall colors, new growth grass under the old, and a false sense that autumn will last forever. We also know a snowstorm is due this weekend. As part of my fall preparations, Jaxon and I caught my last goldfish. Remember my goldfish experiment? Two years ago, Victoria bought…
Hidden Treasure
I’ve ridden by here for forty years. Never had I spotted this little treasure hidden off to the side of the trail. I call myself observant, but it just goes to show you how close you can be to an exciting find without knowing it! It’s a tiny Jeep, missing a few important pieces like…
Annual Harvest Dinner
I took three photos and planned to take more, plus I thought about doing a Facebook Live at some point. Nothing happened from the time I started except me talking into the microphone. No photos, no live video. Just drawing raffle ticket names and auctioneering. I am not an auctioneer. Thank goodness the bidders put…
Pretty Good Day
Down the hill one more time! Four cowboys and two four-wheelerboys. They had gathered the pasture yesterday and froze with a brutally cold wind. Today was much nicer, with a slight breeze and warmer temperature. While I didn’t shed any clothes except my neck scarf at the end, the beginning of the day really was…
#TBT: Good Thing, v.2.0
This was first posted October 17, 2011. Vernon and Daniel pulled the irrigation dams partially out of the creek yesterday. It wasn’t exactly swimming weather, but it needed to be done, so they crawled out on the big dam log and started pulling sticks, letting the water flow unimpeded downstream. A tractor is a big…
