In among collected old photos was this calendar from 1965. The photo’s caption is “Roundup Crew on Nowood River – 1908”. While not directly linked to us, there are many degrees of interest here. In 1908, the Greets were still on their homestead on Spring Creek, but one year later, they would move to our…

#TBT: Long Gone
Today’s #tbt picture is from the 1980’s… The thing that stood out to me besides the neighbor’s Hereford cattle, was the barn. This barn now is nothing but a few bottom boards. It slowly collapsed in over the years, weighed down by winter snow and time. We still help our neighbor at this corral, but…
#TBT: Dog Family
A look back to 2007. That’s a very young looking Lucas, sweet, dear, Elsa… and puppy Dally enjoying a winter walk.
#TBT: A Team
When I first arrived at the ranch, oh, a Loooooong Time Ago… We used a team to feed cows in the winter. During the summer, they lived a life of leisure. But one time, someone arranged a Team Pulling Contest down at the Ten Sleep Rodeo Grounds. Johnny took Buck and Booger down to compete….
#TBT: Old School
We used to always haul horses in the pickup or big one ton if there was five or six to haul! Them newfangled horse trailers are kinda nice, though.

My eye was caught by this stationery from the Plains Hotel in Cheyenne. Who wouldn’t want to write on this? And then frame…
#TBT :The Beginning
The twins, Frank, on the left, and Fred, on the right, settled with their older siblings and parents on Spring Creek, south of Ten Sleep, Wyoming. Thus began the story of Greet Ranch. This photo was taken “about 1895”. I played with the intensity and light a bit, revealing even in more detail, the sunlight…
#TBT: Christmas Card
I posted this last year, too… but it’s so stinking cute!!!
#TBT: Winter Herefords
A snapshot of days gone by… wintery scene with Herefords in our field. No date. (No idea whose hand that is either!)
#TBT: Young Daddy
With the possibility of some acupuncture in Lucas’ future now that the Good Doctor’s partner is certified for it, I thought I’d revisit Lucas’ one and only session way back in 2009. The video is here if you’d like to see it. The next post caught my eye, and I just had to share a…
