The sunset creates a romantic glow… ha! in Lucas’ dreams… see yesterday’s post!
Moody Blues
If you’ve ever been around dogs, i.e. bred dogs, you’ll know the “moody blues”. Lucas is that moody dog. The one that lays outside of the girls’ kennel when they are penned. He mopes. I think his lower lip ACTUALLY sticks out in a pout. On occasion he howls. Not a coyote howl… a pitiful……
Web Design and Lottery
I’d love to develop another web site… and I’d like to win 100 million dollars… Whichever will come first is anyone’s guess… I don’t have time for the first and I don’t live in a state with a lottery… Though I’d hire someone who is good at web development. I offered the job to my…
Red Tail Hawk Floating
Yesterday was my 28th wedding anniversary… wow. wheew. For many years we poured Warbex on this day… don’t know why it worked that way… but I’m very glad we don’t do that anymore… Warbex is a pour on insecticide for cattle. It worked great… it just smelled bad. Warbex (or that day) used to give…
Hours Away
We had to move cows today… the 99 pair we trailed here… Somehow my disorganized self couldn’t remember to recharge the batteries in my little OOPE camera… and there was NO WAY I would pack my big camera on a day like today! So… Your imagination will have to work today. This pasture doesn’t belong…
More Delightful
I have, quite honestly, attempted an entry a day, even on those long days where my muscles ache and bones creak as I sit down at my computer. Yesterday I had absolutely no intention of abandoning you, causing even the most minor of irritations in your lives… I chose, relatively late in the morning to…
Wordless Wednesday – Tall Grass/Quarterhorse/Fat Cows/Brisk Wind
Panama grazes during our windy lunch break yesterday… please ignore the houndstongue in his forelock.
Kicked Across
All six of us rode horses today, Victoria meeting us on top, coming from her side of the mountain. We kicked our cows across the road to new pasture. Our cows have been in our leased pasture since our big trail drive weeks ago. Since we put 100 pairs in ANOTHER leased pasture the grass…
Photoshop Creativity
Sometimes I wish I could take a class on Photoshop. Some graphic design class that includes step 1, step 2, step 3… I’m not going to blame my age, but I need my steps written out any more. I need notes. Everywhere. Not just grocery lists. What*I*need*to*do*today lists. What Vernon told me to do today….
Lucas’ Paw – Pawrt Two
In February, I posted about Lucas’ paw… and received the most comments to any post I’ve ever written. I tried most of the suggestions… honey… sugar… sugardine… zinc oxide and calamine… other miscellaneous ideas… But Elaine and Sal, two of the commenters, suggested Schreiner’s Herbal Spray. What the heck, I spend SOOO much on this…
Saturday Rain Moments
Last night it poured… and then again this morning… We had a trip planned today… going to Douglas, Wyoming to the State Fair to pick up our Centennial Ranch sign from US Senators Enzi and Barrasso, and US Congresswoman Lummis. The heavy rain made us stick to the paved roads… adding two hours to our…
Whiner
I’m not usually a whiner. It irritates me when people whine. I get mad at whiners. I ignore them all the more. Just ask my kids… So… I figure if *I’m* gonna whine… I also need to point out a blessing in disguise. It may be related in some respect… it may not. Let’s see…
