Nice day
Not too hot, not too windy. I was getting ready to work on making a palp cage this morning when Delbert showed up with an invite to ride along with him, so took it quick before he changed his mind! We stopped over at a neighbors who had been having a dog trail. It wasContinue reading “Nice day”
Devil’s Tower
Another good one. Had Bill Cheney from down around Casper, Jim Hamilton from over by Decker, MT and Pat Meade from Iowa all come to sing and recite poems. Chance backed me up on his guitar with hot licks… Poor ol’ Bill had back surgery this spring and 5 days after he had a stroke.Continue reading “Devil’s Tower”
Grand kids and ponies

This morning we went to MassContinue reading “Grand kids and ponies”
Another gig
I dropped the two mean little kids of with Cindy yesterday when she got off work and I went up to Hay Creek camp for the Cancer Benefit ride. Some of us made music and did some poetry after everyone ate. They all bragged on us and seemed to enjoy it. Got to see friendsContinue reading “Another gig”

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’…”

I got the tractor going the other day but it was low on hydraulic fluid so there was no power steering. Filled it up and it still didn’t want to work, so I did some other stuff. Then in the evening I thought I’d try it again as it has done this before in theContinue reading “Dang”
Aaaahhhhhgggg!
Got the saddle all oiled and put together but I am not happy. It came out much darker than I expected. I used different leather this time, good leather, but from a different tannery and it must have took on the oil much easier. Any way, that ain’t all of it, my camera won’t takeContinue reading “Aaaahhhhhgggg!”
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!”
Another nice day
A bit windy, but for this time of the year, I will take it. Up in the 40’s. supposed to get in the 50’s later this week. We didn’t have a huge turnout for the gig, but the ones who did come sure said they enjoyed it. I know all the performers had a greatContinue reading “Another nice day”
