Rain, rain, and more rain. People in Wyoming shouldn’t complain about rain. For an area that receives only 14″ of it throughout a year, every little bit helps. We usually measure rainfall in hundredths of an inch! This March was the second wettest that Johnny has recorded in all his years of recording the weather….

Rain Day
Wow, it’s amazing… .65″ of rain today! That’s a Good Rain for here! No yard work today, that’s for sure. I managed to make some more bookmarks for sale at the library, and enjoyed a book in front of a toasty fire for a while. It was a very nice and relaxing Sunday. If anyone is interested…
#TBT: Old Flood
Springtime high water is not a new thing. No date. Bridge over the Nowood Creek.
Multiple Personality Disorder
From nice, warm, springlike days to sunny but windy days, to flat out blizzard conditions… oh, goody for you, Wyoming! You have your multiple personality disorder in fine form!
Bless My Little Heart
Eh? What did you say? Well, I’m shocked, just shocked! What did you say? Well, bless my little heart… It is FEBRUARY… In WYOMING… the snow JUST left… and yes, look at all the green! It isn’t even Saint Patrick’s Day! **** We’ve got two great questions already for the next Q&A Session… are there…
Ice Jam
Ice jam should be a blue, delicious, jelly… lightly tasting of cool mint, vanilla, and chocolate. Spread on a cracker with cream cheese, it would be a delight! Unfortunately, that is *NOT* what ice jam means. An ice jam is when ice is broken out of a river due to warming weather or melted runoff…
Doin’ Her Thing
My journaling class was a success… I think my 12 attendees had a good time. That’s about all we can fit into our little room at tables, so it was perfect! It’s continuing to melt RAPIDLY around here. Fifty degrees will do that! Every little depression or draw is now home to a river of…
Wordless Wednesday – “Fresh Snow”
Fresh Snow Puzzle
Whippersnapper
Wow. A good seven inches of powdery snow out there today! Nothing like fresh snow to play in! Lucas and Eden were having a blast. That young little whippersnapper was too fast for Lucas. Dally just yells and demands that THEY STOP THIS FOOLISHNESS RIGHT NOW!!!! But they never listen. Ah, just lighten up, Dally. …
Fresh Snow
After our blizzard yesterday, we were happy to see a bright blue sky today. Although the temperature didn’t seem to break 15˚, it was fairly nice out… the grandkids even came up to try to sled in the fresh 10″ of snow, but it wasn’t packed, and powdery snow isn’t great for sledding on shallow…
Cool
The wood box is filled. I have everything I need… wool slippers, wool blankets… down blankets… I imagine I will be warm! I hope you all stay warm out there! The coldest it’s been here lately was -16˚ a few days ago, far from the coldest I’ve seen it. It’s 10˚ now and falling with…
Looking for a Calendar Shot
Last Monday, we cancelled our preg testing because of weather. It rained and was cold… and we just decided it wasn’t worth being wet and miserable. Well, today was the ‘replacement day’ and when the rain started pouring down last night, we began to wonder if we would be doing it today as well. A…
