Macro Monday (and pink ear-tags)

I’m going to be pressed for time the next few days, so I’m combining the photos of the pink, calf ear-tags, with some macro shots of the same! And we live in our house, so my kitchen table and kitchen are basically a disaster area in these pictures. Lately we’re here just long enough to [...]

Techie, Anyone?

If it were not for Amazon.com, I think my life would be a complete loss. Well, okay, not a complete loss, but since we do live miles and miles from town, and UPS, as well as FedEx deliver to our door, it makes things a LOT easier. Forget to buy something in town that can [...]

You Know…

You live on a ranch (and branding seasons is upon you) when: Your kitchen table is full of calf ear-tags (which this year, are pink by the way!) Pink ear-tags! Awesome, right? Your refrigerator is doubling as a vet cabinet full of calf vaccine, and equine drugs. Alfalfa volunteers to grow in your yard. There’s [...]

Memorial Day Rodeo

She made her first ever pole run in competition- and you could see Pommel going, “huh? what’re we doin’ Kels”? [...]

I was too busy this week to take new photos, but luckily I had a couple random shots in my archives- though they were taken last week. Spring is here on the ranch- the young trees that are planted here at our house are budding!

Branding Season

I told y’all I’ve been busy. In fact, today I am only blogging in the middle of the day because it rained last night. Otherwise, I’d probably be horseback right now. In the past 10 days I’ve been to 5 brandings, and we’ll have our first branding this week, we hope. Our official party branding [...]

First Barrel Race of the Summer

While I’m aware that it’s not actually summer, the summer barrel racing series that we attend over in Dupree, SD is in full swing. Our first race was actually scheduled for two weeks ago, but rain and snow forced us to cancel. So we had to wait until this Thursday to actually make a run. [...]

Witnessing a Miracle

There are people who have raised horses their whole lives who have never seen a foal born. Mares are typically quite private about it. And births rarely occur during the day. They are more likely to occur between midnight and 5am. When a mare goes into labor the whole process, if nothing is wrong, should [...]

Our Ranch

Some of y’all asked the other day to see photos of the stud horse whose babies were pictured here. So being the obliging person I am, here you go: For those of you interested in his pedigree, you can see it here. And for those of you interested in seeing LOTS of pretty ponies, and [...]
