Infrastructure
A Lesson On Infrastructure. “Infrastructure is the basic physical and organizational structures needed for the operation of a society or enterprise.” Even to me, it was very obvious that this bridge had sustained damage in the floodwaters of a few days ago. Where before this had spanned a sweet little stream… It’s now an island…
Wordless Wednesday – “A Little Rounder”
Dally starts to show her pregnancy… a little rounder… a little sleepier… a little more contemplative… **** May 11, 2010 Enough For Her (one of my favorite entries!) May 11, 2009 Rush Rush May 11, 2008 No entry.
On The Way
Seems as if our days are either filled with this: Or this: which was taken today… we got 5 inches of WET snow! So, like ranchers tend to do… you go to town when it’s too nasty to do anything else! We took Boomer to the vet because he’s been shaking his head and digging…
A Good ‘Un
Daniel, T. (his friend) and I took some bulls to a different pasture about 3 miles away. Yes, the sagebrush can hide bulls, it’s that tall… Crossing the Nowood. Yes, Dally was dog of the day. Lucas had enough yesterday, or so I thought. When I left in boots, spurs, and chaps, he went crazy…
Questions and Answers – April 2011 Edition
As the snow and rain begin to fall outside my window, I’ll sit here inside and enjoy answering your great questions! Taylor wrote: Someone may have already asked this, but how soon will you be able to tell if Dally is pregnant? So excited to see her puppies! Well, Taylor, if I took her to…
Buy One
So, the dog owners were happy… Hustler seemed ready for Round Two immediately… Dally sent the confusing signs of “yes, I wanna” right along with “no way, Jose!” We took a little walk, discussing dogs and goats and livestock, hoping to let Dally wrap her little mind around what had happened and if it could…
Sex and the Country
(part two) So, I’d done the Matchmaker part… checking pedigrees and working ability and health, and looks! I now perched precariously upon her decision… like a Fiddler on the Roof. I had been Driving Miss Dally all the way to not-quite Valentine, Nebraska… So, Miss Dally, what do *you* think? He’s dark, he’s handsome… He’s…
Passing Inspection
I left Ten Sleep with one hope in mind… that after driving clear to the middle of Nebraska… Dally would stand for the mate I’d debated and agonized over! The cool thing about English Shepherd breeders, is that there aren’t many *out there*… and that makes for a small community where we know each other…
Significant Other
We’re baaaaaaa-aaaack! 974 miles according to Google maps round trip. Which is crazy. Thankfully, I broke it up into 2.5 days! I drove to Casper, spent the night with my brother and sister-in-law, drove to Nenzel, Nebraska… had our rendezvous… and returned to Casper… where I again spent the night and then came home today. Dally…
Wordless Wednesday – “Hay, Girl”
Dally is the star this week… laying in the hay. Hey, hay girl! **** March 16, 2010 Hello, Everyone March 16, 2009 Eight Days and Counting March 16, 2008 No entry.
It’s A Start
The warmth and wind has taken a lot of our snow the past few days… but our fields are still covered in snow with crusts of mud around the edges. It makes for a workout walking my buddies. I decided it was time to start some more training. Walking along the highway. This is where…
