I know it seems like a long time since I’ve discussed anything to do with ranch work… but there’s a reason for that. Right now, the guys are fixing fence… and, yes, you can dig post holes in the winter… or you can pound in t-posts. I see our heifer calving lot has been expanded…

It seems like it’s taken me much longer to decorate for Christmas than usual. I did finish the outside, just in time for it to start snowing! The inside, on the other hand, is still a mess. I’m definitely not ready for company! Thank goodness, Vernon puts up with my disorganization. Tomorrow is our library…
