Remember my Ledger Art Class? I wrote about it multiple times… and until tonight, I thought I had made a video about it. I really, really thought I had… anyway, here’s a link… and here… Our teacher was Robert Martinez, an amazing artist. Well, I took Johnny to Riverton, Wyoming today for an eye appointment…
Branding Video
Branding is an essential part of our ranching operation. A big thank you to friends and neighbors that help make it happen!
Something Different
Something very different today… I was going to go back over to the Washakie County Fair to see Jaxon sell his steer. I’ve never attended a sale, always thinking that I couldn’t compete with the local businesses that buy the animals. That was still true. Jaxon’s steer sold well… but I sure didn’t bid on…

Princess

Hike
We went for a hike today, looking for a spring. Vernon had been to it years ago and we thought it’d be easy enough to find. There was an old road that would take us close to it. Trouble was, not much of the road was passable! Too many downed trees and new growth… it…
NDotAC
National Day of the American Cowboy. Most people don’t know the difference between a cowboy and a rancher and that’s ok. We’re still out here, backs bent, head down, teeth gritted, meeting whatever comes our way. We’re part of that 1.5% of the population feeding 330 million three meals a day. Sometimes it seems like…
Springtime Ranching Video
With the recent heat, it’s nice to watch the snow in this video from April 1 – 16! The False Spring continues and I burn a little extra weed patch along my garden fence. I put some grandkids to work, digging, cleaning, and dehydrating what carrots I have left over from winter. My husband works…
