I have to go to Spearfish tomorrow to do a radio program for Jim Thompson and then do the Heritage of the American West show tomorrow night at the High Plains Heritage center. The theme is about Deadwood, so they asked if I had any poems or songs. I didn’t! LOL So I wrote oneContinue reading “1-16-07”

Well, another birthday passed by yesterday. I ain’t officially old yet, but I think it’s the miles, not the years. Tate, Kass and Gabe came out and spent the day with me and Cindy, after she got off from work. We took my, new to me, ice skates and went skating on the pond. IContinue reading “1/14/07”

It is the supposedly ,last nice day we are going to get for awhile. Temps have been in the 30’s and 40’s. For the next 5 days or so, we are supposed to get some snow and temps in the single digits. I can remember years when I would have been really grateful to haveContinue reading “1/10/07”

The weather has changed a bit around here. Cooled off and we got a little rain and snow yesterday and a touch of snow today. Had a good/bad day the other day. Awhile back, when I was going to ship some cows, I left the ones I was going to ship in the corral overContinue reading “1/6/07”

It’s hard to believe that another year has rolled around so fast! So many things that I should have done, and maybe a few I shouldn’t have! I went up to Baker, MT the other day to perform for the Baker Livestock Auction’s Christmas party. Dan Murphy had lined it up quite a while agoContinue reading “12/31/06”

Merry Christmas! Hope all reading this either have or had a wonderful Christmas. We will have all the children home and hope for Dusty, Tristan and Lan to be here also. We are very much enjoying a brown Christmas. This is sure a great time for a drought and a heat wave. It can startContinue reading “12/23/06”

I’m tired! I ran the trackhoe for about 10 hours today and dug around a mile of cable up. The boss is whining as he thinks I should work tomorrow. I never have liked working on Sundays, unless it’s real necessary. ‘Course, I’ve never liked to work at all, but always seems like someone thinksContinue reading “12/15/06”

Another nice day, tho’ the wind blew a little. Worked with another yearling filly this morning and then a yearling stud and my draft mare this afternoon. Also unloaded and stacked a trailer load of bales. Even got Cindy to drag most of them to the end of the trailer for me! My draft fillyContinue reading “12/12”

Tyler came home with Cindy last night, as they planned to go back in today and shop. They talked me into going, so we took my pickup and trailer and dropped the trailer at Dusty’s so when we came back thru’ Sturgis, we could go get a load of small square hay bales. We ateContinue reading “12/11/06”

Man! What a beautiful day! Must have gotten up to 55 or so. Little to no wind. Just wonderful! I worked with a couple of pretty young ladies today. One was my yearling draft horse filly and the other was my favorite Quarter Horse, yearling filly. LOL Both were real nice. I saddled my QHContinue reading “12/09/06”
