Yesterday I went to see a special visitor at the Ten Sleep Library. His name is Craig Johnson and he is the author of five books. The sixth, Junkyard Dogs, is due out in May. When his first book came out, entitled The Cold Dish, I remember thinking “This guy *understands* Wyoming!” At the time I was still working…
Picnic
I have lost power twice in the past 30 minutes… ugh. So tonight’s entry is short and sweet in order that it *finally* can be published! We went on a picnic this afternoon… with our winter coats on and snowbanks in the shadows of the junipers… but a good enough Wyoming spring day for us!…
Antler Hunting
For those of us with “cabin fever” … these fleeting springlike days are great temptations to get OUT… OUT of our jobs, our houses, our ruts… and hike in temperatures higher than 20 degrees… with no knee deep mud… or knee deep snow. We can walk and see what the winter brought and is leaving…
Chain Cow Continues Her Adventures
I have to admit, I wasn’t sure this idea of mine was going to fly… I didn’t think anyone would be thrilled with this idea… But, it continues on… Remember this little number? She’s had way more adventures than a little Irish/American heifer(?) should ever have! I admit… I’m jealous. She’s in Texas right now… living it up….

Half Pint
We have a twin calf. She’s tiny. She’s cute. She’s always hungry. Her name is Half Pint. I’d like to introduce you to her. Half Pint from Carol Greet on Vimeo.
A Growing Collection
Through the years, I’ve given most of my pysanky eggs away… to teachers, friends, family. I’ve always heard that if you give your first creative attempt away… then those “Muses” or creative spirits will come back to you and help you in future attempts. I continue to give most of these eggs away… evidently I…
Consistently Inconsistent
Although the day started cold… 27 degrees… by noon it was 50 or so… a gorgeous spring day in Wyoming! We are having many calves everyday… today we had 14! Vernon figures we are over halfway done and on the downhill slide. YAY! This time of year is always full of hard work for Vernon…
Same Color
Thanks for the tips on my watermark difficulties… I will try them! Anything to keep me from sitting here in front of my computer quite so much would be extremely welcomed! I need to automate the entire process, and there is probably a way to do it… Changing the dpi… resizing… adding a watermark and…
Sigh
Really. After one day of playing with my watermark, I now can’t get it to work. And no, I wasn’t going to leave it black, I actually wanted it to be a clear watermark… barely indistinguishable… but! whatever I’ve done to it, it doesn’t want to apply itself to my photos tonight. <sigh> A computer…
The New Toy
The New Toy After doing this blog for over two years (!) now, I know how many of you appreciate Wyoming’s scenery and my ranch photography. I’m thrilled you think my snapshots of rural life have beauty and meaning. For a long time I used my Olympus C-700 which had a great zoom for its…
