Hay Hauler
I’ve spent an hour and a half a day these past few days working on sewing those crib skirts… and I only have one finished. Now why is that? Since I don’t like to sit for too long, I break it up with other little jobs. I *did* hang one thing on my wall… I…
Futile Fertility
While I’ve been messing around with some little chores… the guys have continued to hay… Now that a couple of the fields were cleared of their cutting, Vernon decided to try something new. Well, not new to the world of agriculture, but something we’ve never done before. No till seeding. I know, many of you…
Bring A Promise
As grey as yesterday was… hovering over our miserable-ness like buzzards… today was a gorgeous brilliant Wyoming day! Sunshine. Warmth. Red rocks and sagebrush alike washed by yesterday’s rain/snow mix into gleaming versions of their usual dusty selves. I waited on Johnny’s arrival… sauntered to the creek’s edge and closed my eyes. Robin to my…

Feeding Two Video
I started this last time with the Feeding One Video… how to load your hay trailer! Now it’s on to pitching that hay to the cows. Johnny’s driving, and I’m riding on the trailer. With a bit of a breeze and the movement of the trailer, the wind chill now hits a low that squeezes…
Feeding One Video
I’m keeping my fingers crossed that Vimeo gets my Feeding One video ready to go before I have to go “home” tonight. I got a late start editing and it really is probably too long for most of you to watch… but it was *quit editing and get it uploaded* or forget about it until…
Sundogs
OK. I can tell this halfway living in two houses at once is gonna get difficult. My computer’s here, but I was there, and when I WAS here, I was busy. Got it? That’s my Excuse For The Day and I’m sticking with it. Plus… A frozen bale and a loose grass bale with a…
What I Have To Work With…
WWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWOOOOOO. That’s my imitation of a fog horn… and boy! did we need one today! Fog set in and STAYED. All Day. All DAY! How weird is that? Wyoming’s not known for fog… moisture in the air just doesn’t happen that often… But we were proud recipients today! I’m still on Pitching Duty, so I…
First Night
Well, it happened finally. We spent our first night at the Mills Place. I need to rename it to something like the South Forty or Big Trails or some such name… but it will probably be the Mills Place for the next 30 years… No, we’re not completely moved… far from it! It’s kinda like…
Oat Hay
Well, tonight’s got to be a short entry… I’m due to wake up at 3 am… finish throwing lunch in the coolers… eat breakfast… and be at the barn to saddle my horse at 4 am… So… why am I still up at 10:30? GOOD QUESTION! I guess to show you some wonderful oat hay…
