Wonderful, Baby
Why is it when I am lucky enough to see cool things on my commute home, that 9/10 of the photos I take are going to be blurry? I get that I’m excited, but I’ve done this often enough that I’m pretty good about getting a good rest on my car window or seat or…
Job Security
We’re getting slammed with work… cows to move every which way! I’m trying to help when I can, so I was sent to the mountain to work with Brandon. He was going to fix fence. Now that’s a job I don’t mind doing. We were very intent on looking along the fence line… seeing that…

So… it’s easy to upload a video to Facebook. I’m trying to see if I can link to it here, so everyone can see it… even those of you who aren’t on Facebook! Well, it looks like the correct link came through, so I will post this short video of some elk through the trees,…

Our Hunter Fest is full of raffles and small tables of wares… including the library. We sold our neck/head scarves and raffle tickets….
Wanderers
For a couple of weeks now, it’s not unusual to hear elk bugling in our fields at night… We don’t see them, but we sure love listening to them. Today, with all the rain… a couple of cows and a calf just wandered by…
Gold Star
Well, I did something today I’ve never done before! It was a blast, in more ways than one! The Wyoming Game and Fish Department is radio collaring and blood testing some elk in this area. A friend and I crashed their party… wanting to learn more and see what we could see. What we could…
