#TBT: Longmire Redux
So my first post about Longmire Days (not about Craig Johnson!) was four years ago, I guess. It’s not a LONG time ago, but I figured it qualified for #TBT anyway. And, it’s appropriate because Longmire Days is coming up this weekend again! Woohooooo! Here it is. That post also has a great old photo…
#TBT: Red Dirt In My Soul
No, it’s not a vintage photo… but, every once in a while, I have to pull this out of the archives… it just means so much to me! The story itself, the centennial ranch party with family and friends, and how sweet both my boys were… (and are!) I just tear up and sigh… (and…
#TBT : Wooly Chaps
There’s just something about those wooly chaps of Fred Greet’s… there are many old photos of visitors and relatives, trying on the wooly chaps and playing at “being a cowboy”. Here, Fred has roped a visitor in the chaps and cowboy hat. She also is pictured on horseback at a distance and on the corral…
#TBT: Winter Cows

#TBT: Old Ways
Just to prove some ways just work the best for us… No date.
#TBT: Birthday Boy
Happy birthday to Daniel… What an amazing 29 years it’s been!
#TBT: Buffalo Bill Museum
A photo postcard from the Buffalo Bill Museum… no date. Very interesting to locals as it is now composed of five different museums… The Buffalo Bill Museum, Whitney Western Art Museum, Cody Firearms Museum, Draper Natural History Museum, and The Plains Indian Museum. Definitely a worthy stop if you’re traveling to Yellowstone Country and Cody,…
#TBT: Two Cowboys
Two cowboys pose in front of our bunkhouse… part of which you can see here, as well. Looks like it doesn’t even have its sod roof yet! No names. No date.
#TBT: Branding Dinner
Feeding the branding crew has always been a Big Deal. Everyone is working hard and has quite the appetite. This branding would have been on the top of the mountain, creating challenges of its own. Heat would be a campfire or what could be brought up in a wrapped pot to keep it as warm…
#TBT: Working Team
A hired man drives the team raking hay on the Greet Ranch. 1920’s photo.
