Happy 35th birthday, Brandon!
Historical Photo: Horses
In old photos, I’m drawn to the dogs that have joined their humans, the horses that people rode, and the clothing or tack that appears. This week, here are three horse photos that appealed to me. This first photo is Ernest Greet, 1911(?). What a huge horse! Then there is three of the Greet brothers…
Throwback Thursday: Ranch Kids Rule!, v.2.0
This was first posted August 10, 2014. Look at how he’s grown! Daniel and Vernon were working on a pipeline… Tess and the kids stopped by to watch… I stopped by on my way home from the library… It looked like a party! There stood little Jaxon, next to a well head. This well has…
Wordless Wednesday: Double Dip
I couldn’t decide, so this Wednesday, you get two puzzles in a double dip! Here’s a cool cloud… and the fantastic sunset from last night. Enjoy the puzzles!
Tipi Sunset
After a day of mowing grass and company and starting on a very late birthday present for Lorelei, I came home after dark and it occurred to me, after the brilliant sunset we’d had, that a golden light in my kids tipi would look spectacular. Like it was actually being used… I took my little…
Shine Up
A friend gave us this beautiful 18” Round Oak wood stove a few years ago. It’s been sitting in the corner of a shed until a week ago. It now has a job. As best I can figure, it’s a 1914 model, though its patent date is 1912. Definitely dusty, so I took a rag…
Appealing
There’s something about this landscape that appeals to me…
Sweet Christmas Gifts
I’ve been wanting to try this for over a year and today, finally, I noticed my chance. I can’t even remember how I stumbled across this. Maybe it was researching making syrup from boxelder trees (another thing I’ve always wanted to try). Who knows? But today… the word is MUGOLIO. Mugolio is the term applied…
Historical Photo: Elmer
Since everyone loved the historical reminisces of Vernon’s uncle that I published for a while… I thought maybe you’d enjoy some historical photographs as well. I’ll give a name or location if I have one and I’ll try to choose some interesting ones. Please chime in with things you notice or corrections if I label…

Beauty Shots
Well, unfortunately, Can-Am didn’t see my Instagram video overnight and offer to give us a brand new outfitted Defender to drive… but that’s ok. Vernon said he’d hate to take a pretty machine down there like he did yesterday. I could not believe he kept going through all that… and that we made it to…
