From one end of the county to the other!














We began the day heading up to Snook's old place to meet Leif who is replacing us at the Mosquito Lake cow camp. We had some electric fence wire he needed. On the way we saw a doe with new fawns. Later I'll post some hay stack photos. I have more Willow Creek pictures I mean to post sometime too. This photo of Bob leaning on Snooks' old truck is pretty cool!


Later we gathered up Sally and headed down to Muddy to Lynn Thomas'. We enjoyed her lemonaide and cookies...beautiful smile, and wonderful art. She has her Art in the Barn up, and I love to go see it every year. Sally sent the photo of Lynn and myself! Thanx Sally.


On the way home we stopped at Michael's. He said I could rifle his trash for an old fence post. I have great ideas to decorate it. We'll see. If it turns out you'll see it here. If not..you won't! Palmer was helping load some old wood for us.

A trip to Willow Creek, The Box R, and all!





A neat day today. Can't get better! We hauled our horses into Irv's, and headed north from there. Jim and Charm joined us for a day down memory lane. We talked about the old ranches, and the days we enjoyed so much. We rode around the Z-U buildings, and our old place. We went up near the Guard Station for our lunch. Chad Hayward showed up, and defended the fact all the willows are burned. I'm sure he's right..it will be better moose habitat, when there are about three years old. But Willow Creek is certainly naked now. We went up the oil well road, then up to Dead Horse Park. From there we went into Indian Park, and down Lozier trail. We visited with Cole a little as he was shoeing a horse. Irv hurt his knee a couple of days ago, and was upstairs with it up and using ice. Get well Irv. Good to see Robyn too. She look great.

Brandon

We enjoyed Brandon so much. This was taken with his phone in the Weatherford shack. We missed a barbeque tonight..as it's his last night. Brandon..we hope you come back to our country. If not, bring Sara and that cute Carter to see us...next fall would work!! :) Anyhow, you were a joy!
