She had two little sisters and a little brother and 7 older siblings. She was the last survivor of 11 children. She hated that. She alwaysContinue reading “Mothersday, 2007”

We got some more moisture the last couple of days. Some rain and then it turned to snow during the night. Maybe a quarter to half an inch. I’m sure back east, that wouldn’t seem like much, but for this country, it’s a good start. We may be up to 2 inches for the year,Continue reading “4/4/07”

Just came in from driving the draft colts. Dandy, the coming 3 year old gelding, drove off like an old broke horse. Fine, the coming 2 year old filly, a full sister to Dandy, drove a little snorty at first, but calmed down real fast. Both seem to be doing great, tho’ they are kindContinue reading “3/26/07”
