Whoo, what a day! Andrew Child gave his talk at the school… Followed by pie at the library… I wasn’t fast enough to get the counter covered with pie… but it was at one point… plus more! Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves…. It was great! We said our goodbyes and thank yous and told him…
That Was Fun
I helped set up for Andrew Child’s visit to the Ten Sleep Library tomorrow then drove to Worland for Craig Johnson’s talk at the library over there…. No surprise… it was fun!
Throwback Thursday: Bottle Baby Video, v.2.0
This was first published April 11, 2014. See who makes a cameo at the end! Cattle don’t usually give birth to twins, and we’ve found that it is best to leave just one calf with its momma, and take the other one away. This one will be bottle fed until a new mother can be…
Wordless Wednesday: Beautiful Country
Coming home the other day from grocery shopping, I just couldn’t resist taking a photo. It is beautiful country. A jigsaw puzzle will be here if you’d like to try it out. Free. No downloads.
National Library Week
Well, it’s National Library Week and I’m going to take the time to promote the Ten Sleep Library! A few years ago, we had the author Tasha Alexander speak at our Spring Tea. She was friendly, entertaining, outgoing, and the perfect author with her Lady Emily mystery series. Oh, by the way, her husband was…
Eclipse Day
Happy eclipse day! Just for kicks and giggles…. Here are two videos from 2017 when we had our look at totality. This time lapse was impressive… Then my chaotic moments of totality with cute little Quinlan and snakes! Today, however, was very overcast. Rats. Well, we decided to head for Worland for a grocery run….
Did That
Today remained overcast and snowy, although there was practically no more accumulation. I again remained inside, enjoying a big pot of pinto beans and cornbread… painting some light switches… and taking the time to watch Iowa’s Caitlyn Clark and her teammates unfortunately lose the National Championship to the South Carolina girls. She has been so…
Spring Storm
Rain overnight quickly kicked us up to .23” of moisture, then it switched to snow and started laying it down! This was taken midday… those are big flakes coming down! I crafted and cleaned and sat in front of the fire and watched my favorite YouTubers. Vernon kept an eye on the calving. Luckily, we…
Reminiscing XX
This story is from James Greet, written in 1991 about his life as a cowboy in the 1940’s. (continued from last week) When this task was completed, it was time to think about starting home with the saddle horses. Because I was young and single, the job naturally fell to me. It would take about…
Throwback Thursday: Lost at Love, v.2.0
This was first published April 7, 2014. Ah, for those sweet days of breeding English Shepherds… how I miss it! Well, I’m back… didn’t miss me did you? Sheila guessed it a few days ago, (good job!), I took a little trip to see if Miss Dally couldn’t hook up with a boyfriend! Little. Why…
Wordless Wednesday: Early Blooms
For a jigsaw puzzle of these brave early blooms against my basement wall, go here.
Found Her
Victoria and crew have been here. She kept saying she needed her baby calf fix, so after lunch and a short ranch meeting, we jumped in my little truck to tour around and see what we could see. We drove up to the top of the yucca hill and thought we’d spotted a set of…
