I spent time setting out some new flowers today. Hopefully, no snow or frost is in our future. I have these four large pots at my “front” door, which, technically, is the back door… anyhoo… I’ve been fighting my cats for possession of these pots. They seem to believe that they are their afternoon sunning…
Fine Arts Gala
I was invited to show my pysanky eggs at Ten Sleep School’s Fine Arts Gala. A precursor to the Middle School/High School band concert, it offered kids a glimpse of community members that had talent in the arts and music. All the kids know me as the librarian but not many know of my creative…
Throwback Thursday: Questions and Answers – May 2015 Edition, Part One, v.2.0
Whew! What a title, eh? I thought it might be fun to revisit one of my old Q & A posts! This was first published May 11, 2015. Kay: So with a rare May snowstorm, would the cows and calves be rounded up and moved to shelter and fed hay ? Late spring storms are…

Late Night Excitement
I often am up watching tv, reading, or occasionally crafting until 10 pm or so, when I then panic and try to write something here. Since my house is only a bit off the highway, neighbors can easily see whether my lights are on. This certain neighbor had an urgent message for me at 10:00…
More Rain and Plans
More rain was predicted for today, so while my house lies waiting for more of my cleaning supplies, I spent the morning mowing my yard. I can clean while it rains. My cousin is coming for a visit next week, and I’m positive, without a doubt, that the state of my housekeeping is low on…
Spring Beauty
To be honest, I could buy one of these for Quinlan, Jaxon, and Lacee and they would have the same thrilled look on their faces as Lorelei. There aren’t probably many 11 year old girls who ask for a writing quill for their birthdays, but Lorelei is one. I bought her lined paper as well,…
Antics
I alternated between garden work and house work. While it may have reached 70 degrees today, my out of shape body thought it was more like 90! As a result, I don’t have a clean house or fully planted garden, but I’m getting close on both. When Vernon requested I come pick him up around…
Kit Season
’Tis the season. On my way home from Ten Sleep, I saw fox in four different places. The kits are tiny. At this spot, there were six little babies… It’s fairly difficult to get good photos, through the brush, in low light, with rambunctious subjects… I took a few little movies, I’ll see if I…
Throwback Thursday: Big Grin, v.2.0
This was first published May 2, 2015. On my way over the mountain to Kaycee, I stopped and had the opportunity to photograph a neighbor’s branding. It isn’t often that I get to crash a branding and not have a job! There was plenty of help, including two familiar faces. Daniel and the black horse…

Gorgeous Day
The last few little babies, minus the even younger ones, were trailed to the badlands today. We won’t brand them until they grow up a bit. After 1.44” of rain yesterday, today was one of those absolutely gorgeous days that makes for great photos.
