Looks Cold to Me
It started off at -21 here at my house, -30 up at the other place… but by afternoon, it had warmed to 20! It was our day in the hills, meaning we had to make the loop in the badlands to check water. I’ve been wanting to go along for a month, and get you…
Create A Glowing Bathroom Nightlight
It was well below zero today with the windchill… -20 as I type with NO windchill… Needless to say, I found plenty in my house to keep me busy. I packed up the last of Christmas (no book to distract me enough today… though I’m reading two good ones…) and decided to act on an…

No choice of colors on this…

New Year’s Eve

We Are So Mean
The guys prepared for tomorrow’s day of bangs vaccinating. That consisted of bringing the calves up from the lower place, sorting the heifers from the steers, and the two year old heifers from everything. Victoria and the twins got to help for the last mile when they intercepted Daniel and Brandon who were cowboying on…
Cute and Practical
Sledding seemed to be the focus of the day, even though the morning dawned with a -8 on the thermometer! It had warmed up by the time we got two little boys fed, dressed, and ready to go and they were READY! We bought them new sleds for Christmas, though they’re much too young to…
