    Prayers for Soapweed

    If it were closer I would try to go. But I have a Doctors appointment that would be tough to make it back in time. If you all go give my condolences to the family when you are there.

    Prayers for Soapweed

    A man I never met or spoke to but got to know through his writing. Heaven took a true believer home but the earth is a poorer place tonight

    Patty wants to chase

    Patty the puppy has turned into a cow and deer chasing machine. We are working on more control with the cows and stopping the deer chasing. On Saturday we moved 150 steers and heifers to this side of the river. This evening 50-60 of them came into the field in front of the house. There is a...

    Bull rider killed in auto accident

    That is terrible. We watched them ride Thursday afternoon. I looked it up as we took I-84 to go home (east). The wreck occurred west of Pendleton almost to the Echo exit. That is wide open straight stretch of freeway with a little bit of rolling hills. One has to wonder why an accident...

    We are watching 100 Days of Rodeo in 100 days on the Cowboy Channel

    I saw it life on Thursday but we were so far from the bucking chutes and that plastic fence made it tougher to see. The broncs got out in the clear so I could see them. Going was a nice adventure for us. But it had been a long time since I was last there. I was there in '73. Sure didn't...

    What's the weather like at your place?

    A light frost here yesterday morning. A little shower this afternoon. I don't think it has made 80 any day this last week.

    We are watching 100 Days of Rodeo in 100 days on the Cowboy Channel

    I am not sure if that was his ride from today or Thursday. No matter he won both the bull riding and the saddle bronc riding. I know he won both go rounds in the bronc riding. Not sure how he did in the go rounds in the bull riding but he would have placed deep in both to win the average...

    We are watching 100 Days of Rodeo in 100 days on the Cowboy Channel

    Were you watching the same rodeo as I was? That PVC fence has been used since the 70's. The vast majority of the bulls stay in it. The arena is 5 acres. That is a lot of ground to try to chase bulls to the stripping chute. Because of that they use 6 pickup men who quietly switch horse mid...

    Doctors?

    After a year of getting bad information from doctors and PA's along with staff that did a terrible job. I took matters into my own hands and went to a urologist in La Grande. Fist saw him about 3 weeks ago. He did a great job of explaining the issue and said that we could keep up the...

    We are watching 100 Days of Rodeo in 100 days on the Cowboy Channel

    We got home and watched the rerun of Pendleton. Saw ourselves several times. It was a good experience but the viewing is better on TV. We were just off what would be the headers box. But that puts the bucking chutes a long ways away. The arena is 5 acres. The pickup men had better be...

    We are watching 100 Days of Rodeo in 100 days on the Cowboy Channel

    We are going to Pendleton tomorrow. We will be in the blue seats just to the right of the roping chute. I sure hope Cody n Nancy aren't there. But the whole arena is surrounded with bars so if he is there we know where he will be. And I won't be going to the bar so I guess I will be safe. I...

    Hanta Yo here poking my head in to say HI!

    Hanta Yo, You haven't been posting since I finally figured out how to log on here. But I read lots of your posts in years past. And my youngest daughter and her husband managed a ranch somewhere near you back while you were still ranching. They posted pictures from a branding at your place...

    Honest Question

    I asked several questions about "natural immunity". You know full well what I was referring to as "natural immunity". In stead of attempting to answer and defend your position. You say I failed science. Well you have failed to have an intelligent discussion. I will no longer make any effort...

    'H did you see this?

    I saw that. Interesting the thoughts on unity. The last several weeks our pastor has been talking about unity and our need for it.

    Do you use the radio in the tractor?

    Neither one of my tractors has a cab let alone a radio. The old flatbed feed pickup has a radio which doesn't work. The good pickup has a radio which I never turn on. There is no cell service here at the house so I think that radio would be very limited and sketchy at best.

    A swamp on the Rez.

    The other one is sedges have edges, rushes are round. It won't be the best hay in the world but it will beat a snow drift in February.

    Honest Question

    Who says that natural immunity wanes after a period of time? And how long is that period? The scientist that you choose to believe? Because the doctors and scientists who I choose to believe say it far out lasts the vaccine. They are now saying that those who are vaccinated need another...

    Some coming home here too.

    Cows have started wandering down the road here. Just a small trickle so far. Two or three pairs a day. In a month it will be bunches of 15 or 20 pairs. As grass and water run out up high them old girls know it is time to head for the hay stack.

    The USA Big W's Return to my Backside

    Well that was just too obvious. I was trying to think of something a little more subtle.

    Honest Question

    People who don't want their kids vaccinated can home school or send them to a private school. And there are a lot who do that. So there is a huge difference between that and what they are trying to pull now.
