Guess it appears that I’m on a black and white photo kick lately! Don’t be fooled, I took this one today. Yes, it was foggy. Yes, it was snowing. Yes, I’m wandered around the middle of the herd, trying to take a good photo… Yes, I sweated. Whoo. Since Daniel is gone, I was hay…
Stockdog History
Since it decided to rain today (starting off with a skiff of snow), Vernon did tractor work which left me to work on my house again. I’m getting my closets figured out and reorganized… pulling out a shelf here, adding it there, and moving the rods around. Repainting. I think I have it. Now to…
Girls and Chaps
Yawn. It’s been a busy week off the ranch… I told you earlier about the activities at the library… Mr. Gagliano came and did a great job with the kids and adults… And today’s prep for the book sale was fast and furious with TONS of help! so… stories about ranchlife have been few and…
Questions and Answers – April 2011 Edition
As the snow and rain begin to fall outside my window, I’ll sit here inside and enjoy answering your great questions! Taylor wrote: Someone may have already asked this, but how soon will you be able to tell if Dally is pregnant? So excited to see her puppies! Well, Taylor, if I took her to…
Wordless Wednesday – “The Other Side”

Whew.
Ha! I did it. My first pysanky completion of the year. The white is done, I’ve just covered the brown with wax… All dyed. With the wax melted off… Other side… white is finished and I’ve just covered the brown… All dyed… (very bad photo too… but realized it too late!) Wax all gone! View…
Other Muse
I’ve got the hankering for pysanky! After my classes… and a friend posting hers on facebook… and seeing my link for last year’s trypillian egg… That’s all I want to do is sit and smell that melted wax and create! Instead, today, I sorted and cleaned and painted and organized and…
Friends of the Ten Sleep Library
It’s a busy few weeks at the Ten Sleep Library and seeing as how I was recently elected president of the Friends of the TSL… I’m busy promoting. First I gave a Pysanky class… Ukrainian egg decorating… and charged $5 to benefit the Friends. It was a good time, with 10 participants and just as…
Highway 20 Views 2
So here, in no particular order: No surprise to see more windmills on these high plains, but why is it I take comfort at these old style windmills but the new ones for electricity just irritate me? With lights and bleachers and an old school bus on stilts, the Merriman Speedway Mud Races look like…
First Campfire
OK. I was all prepared to share more unique sights in Nebraska… then it was late and I thought, well, I’ll just show ’em some First Campfire scenes and then go to bed… But this I have to share. Remember, how I worked to come to terms with my (seemingly) lack of readership and felt…
Highway 20 Views
The thing I enjoy the most while traveling, is just to see how other people live. Now, granted… central Nebraska is not that far removed from central Wyoming… but I still noticed a few things. Like this house. What’s the story? Somehow, these people wanted to shout their patriotism to everyone. I like the sentiment,…
