October 10, 2025 Good morning friends and thank you for taking a moment to visit. As I mentioned yesterday, being a good Christian carries the same characteristics of a good horse. We too are to be loyal, trustworthy and kind. The Holy Spirit poked me in the ribs at 1:30 a.m. today, and I started…

October 9, 2025 Teddy Roosevelt once commented that “The outside of a horse is good for the inside of a man.” A truer statement has never been spoken. There is just something about having a good horse around the place that brings rhythm. He will nicker at you the first time he sees you each…

October 8, 2025 From the first settlers who came into this country looking for a “better way of life,” to today, many a ranch family has had a milk cow. In the 50’s and 60’s most ranch families would have 3-10 milk cows around their place because selling cream was actually profitable. Twice each day,…

October 4, 2025 This is going to be interesting: Yesterday the temperature hit 83 degrees for a high, tomorrow the high is predicted to be 49, a change of 34 degrees. Big temperature swings are not all that uncommon in Wyoming, but seldom are they all that much fun either. According to the stats, the…

October 2, 2025 Yesterday, I spent my day working on this ‘ol house by myself, again. One of the things that has been really good for me in this process though, is getting to work with my dear friend Jeff two days most weeks. He comes down from South Dakota to share his immense construction…

October 1, 2025 And just like that, September has come and gone. I know that the speed of light is moving right along, as well as the speed of sound. Yet both of those seem to be standing still when it comes to the speed of time. Time seems to run faster than a good…

September 30, 2025 Yesterday, Miss Deb and I attended the funeral of a man who was greatly loved by his family and community. The crowd was large, and for the most part old. As I looked around at faces, most of which I probably knew at one time in my life, but due to being…
