I haven't been back up there since the fire. I hope the cows had all the fuel around those troughs gone. We were required to put those RR ties under the troughs. If those ties caught on fire I would think it would melt the trough.

This is where I took the picture looking down into the canyon. We had installed 5 new troughs. The BLM had put in about a mile and a half of pipeline. I have only been back one time since. Those roads are a bit scary. Notice that the hill drops off to the right of the trough. That is where...

The canyon is steep enough that it is it's own fence. But both sides of the canyon in that picture burned.

Some time in the lower 2000's there was a pretty good one in the south Puget Sound. Another guy and I had just pulled in to the ag show In Monroe WA. We had stopped but it felt like the pickup was moving. Looked out the window and saw a power pole swaying. When we got into the building the...

No that is the road. There is probably about 1,500 feet elevation difference between where I was standing and the road.

We always say we don't want to be on the road going up the canyon if we have an earth quake here. All those fingers leading up the hill above the road are rock stacked as steep as you can stack rock. Rock a foot to 4 feet through. A good shake and that stuff will be coming down the hill...

Nothing shaking here. I would be surprised if it did. I am a long ways from where that quake happened. And being 300+ miles from the ocean I really don't pay attention to tsunami warnings. Where I lived on the Washington coast they said a tsunami could reach where I lived. But it would...

A big meal for both Canadian and American Thanksgiving. You know that gluttony is one of the 7 deadly sins.

Happy Thanksgiving to all except the Canadians who celebrated Thanksgiving a month ago. But some of them will probably double dip and feast again today.

Compared to last week today was a pretty short sale. I got 2 cows bought. When I got home I glanced at the brand release paper. Right off I noticed something. One of the cows I bought came from a neighbor. A lightning C on the left rib. We will have to make sure we get that cow branded and...

Yes and I replied. But my reply doesn't show up so I did it again.

The only tree on my place are cottonwoods along the river. The beavers seem determined to rid the world of them. There are still some juniper patches on the hill but getting up there to feed would be an issue. And the fences are all gone from the fire.

Yes. Both dogs. I can't open the door without them jumping in or at least trying. Then me pushing them over to make room for me to get in. Mongrel mutts......

This is fine but where was all this rain back in September when I would have done some good.

This flake feeder is the best thing since sliced bread. Cut feeding time in half. So much safer. Feeding is a pleasure not a chore. Doing it from the comfort of the cab with the heater turned up. No more dealing with snotty old range cows and having to have the dog save me. Or crawling up...

I just ran to the post office. It is 5 miles to there. I saw cows standing beside the road in 3 different places. About a dozen cows total. Like I said here the cops here would just drive by them like everyone else. Now the interstate is a different deal. One gets on there and everyone...

Amazing the cops have that one tied down. A lot of cops would just shoot it. And here where it is all open range they would just leave it alone.

Not many members here from the area you listed. There was in the past but not so much any more.

I have way too many things to get done before the snow flies.

I was on the ballot for the local soil and Water conservation district. Watched the election returns until late last night. All they talked about was Trump and Harris. Not a word about my election. These news media people don't know what is important. I had to look up the results on Elkhorn...
