Finally!!!!!

Got the CD’s in. I couldn’t get my scanner to work so resorted to a photo which really doesn’t even come close to doing justice to Brenda Jones Murphy’s art work which she so graciously allowed me to use. Also one of her photo’s on the back cover. 10 original songs. This is NOT countryContinue reading “Finally!!!!!”

Runnin’…

Picked my friend from California, Mike, at the airport on Friday, about noon and don’t seem like we have slowed down much since. It was windy cold and drizzly on Saturday morning so we headed for Medora for the poetry gathering. Stopped on the way up to visit mutual internet friends. I am getting aContinue reading “Runnin’…”

Cold cowboys!

Got up at 4:30 this morning, did the chores around here and headed to Chances. Pickup wanted to gel up (seeing as it was below zero and I hadn’t mixed the same stuff in the fuel I usually do) so I turned around and came back home, got the cold car and headed out again.Continue reading “Cold cowboys!”

Tired

Setting here typing this on Hopes laptop. I am helping Chance with some cattle work. Made a pretty big circle today for an old fat man on a fat horse! More later…..

Not as much fun

Went over to Punkin Center and had Norman fix my hub that wouldn’t roll on the trailer that ruined the tire. Brakes in it froze up, so there is no brake assembly in it at the moment, but the hub rolls and that new tire he stuck on there works real well! 😉 Then wentContinue reading “Not as much fun”

Why

Here is a short post by an intelligent young lady who was raised in the Ag lifestyle, married a buckaroo after college and has a daughter and still enjoys this lifestyle. I thought it was pretty spot on for most of us in the business of animal husbandry. Thanks Missy. A couple of weeks ago,Continue reading “Why”

Biting cold wind out of the northwest this morning. Headed in to town for a funeral of an old rancher. I’ve known his son for quite a number of years and Cindy works with him. Just had an encounter with a hunter who was friendly, but didn’t understand why I wasn’t to interested in lettingContinue reading “Nov 19, 10”

12/15/06

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”

11/29/06

Brrrr! I came home last night from Gillette, as it was cold and windy there yesterday and supposed to be the same today. It’s pretty hard to do much dirt work, when it gets that cold. Oh, I guess you can do it, but the guys who do the cement work, don’t want to pourContinue reading “11/29/06”

11/25/06

OK, maybe it’s time to re-think the big Tonka toys. I have just spent the past two days, setting in a backhoe and digging up cable, from the old missile base sites. I started at 7 yesterday morning and didn’t quit until 7:30 last night. Then today I started at 8 (slept in until 6:30Continue reading “11/25/06”
