This was first published November 17, 2011. The morning greeted me with the bad news that my car was stranded INSIDE my garage… evidently the cable had come off the rollers as I shut the garage door last night. The good news was that I had found out 4 hours before I was due in…

#TBT: Come Back Tomorrow, v.2.0
This was first posted November 13, 2011. This has been a very cool day! I mean, as in awesome, wonderful! Brandon and Megan and Quinlan are still here… so there’s the visiting and babysitting going on… wonderful in its own way… But, finally, this afternoon, I needed some “airing out”… too much cooking, etc! Me…
#TBT: On the Trail, v.2.0
This was first posted November 4, 2011. Brandon, Megan, and Quinlan arrived late last night… and we sent the parents to bed and watched Quinlan for them! He’d slept for most of the 6 hour drive, so he wasn’t ready to sleep more here! I crashed at 3 am… Vernon, who had a few hours…
#TBT: Favorite Touches, v.2.0
It’s so much fun to look back on my house renovation photos from 2011. I tried to find my ”ant hill stones” post, I know I made one! Anyway, the border in my bathroom is made from the small stones out of an ant hill… and it looks great in these early photos! This was…
#TBT: Good Thing, v.2.0
This was first posted October 17, 2011. Vernon and Daniel pulled the irrigation dams partially out of the creek yesterday. It wasn’t exactly swimming weather, but it needed to be done, so they crawled out on the big dam log and started pulling sticks, letting the water flow unimpeded downstream. A tractor is a big…
#TBT: Good Timing, v.2.0
This was first posted October 6, 2011. And as a funny aside, I have three posts with this same title… While I was working at the library yesterday, the guys gathered our mountain pasture and kicked them into a smaller “holding” pasture. That meant leaving first thing for the mountain to trail them down. Dally…
#TBT: Ready for Babies, v.2.0
My how time flies! This was first posted September 26, 2011. I had gone to see Quinlan for the first time, gone to a dog clinic, and then went to help Victoria prepare for her twin boys! Home! Home. If I was more like my dogs, I’d be running in circles and yipping! “We’re home!”…
#TBT: ”Eggs and Tomatoes”, v.2.0
This was first posted September 16, 2011. As usual, you guys are so SWEET! Thanks for all the well wishes for little Quinlan! I know Brandon reads this… well, he did before his activity level got boosted up another foot… so, I’m sure these are all getting read and passed along. Thank you SO MUCH….
#TBT: How Does He *DO* This?, v.2.0
This was first posted September 12, 2011. About three weeks ago, Vernon’s four wheeler started making “funny sounds”. Honestly, I don’t know *what* was the problem. I am NOT mechanically inclined. Now around here, four wheelers are USED. Not just for running around taking in the scenery on a few trails… but USED. They run…
#TBT: Shipping Day Scenery, v.2.0
This was first posted September 4, 2011. We headed back up the mountain to ship those cows marked as “open”, or not pregnant… as well as those cows we “mouthed out”, checking for teeth loss due to old age. The ol’ girls have done us pretty good. We had to sell our last two red…
#TBT: I’m Lichen It, v.2.0
This was first posted August 28, 2011. I’m needing to finish up some details on my projects so I can count them as completed. The last thing needed in my bathroom is the decorative “chair rail” that I originally hoped to cover in fossils. Alas and alack! my fossil stash is too poor to use…
#TBT: Expanding Family Portrait, v.2.0
This was first posted August 19, 2011. The other day, when Brandon finished his metal Centennial sign, we decided to take some photos. Vernon’s sister and her husband were here from California… and it seemed the perfect time to snap some family photos. The difficulty lay in the long legs of the sign… Where were…
