Resolutions for ‘24
I was given a ranch ride today, it was wonderful. My puppy Ellie was along for the ride, her first time on the ranch.
The lack of snow is disturbing. Also the lack of wildlife or any signs of such.
Oh; my two goals for this year are to read the Bible and to walk. Pretty lofty but I will give it my best. Stay tuned for updates. Hope everyone has a great New Year. Don’t forget to be someone’s hero often.

White Christmas Not
Untypical Montana Christmas. Not the first time I’ve seen this in my 66 years on planet earth.
Winter Has Arrived
With a vengeance. It’s 16 degrees right now and heading south. I’m surprised how much snow fell and how cold it is so suddenly. Haven’t seen this in years.
Arizona sounds like the place to be about now.
October is Lovely
What a stellar day today was. The temperature topped out at 72 degrees with no wind. If only I could have been out there riding, pony or four wheeler, either would have been great.
We’re going to have a few more days of this weather God willing.
Fall Has Arrived
It’s 27 degrees outside, I think it’s officially fall. Time to get the sprinklers drained, trees watered and the fire wood stocked up.
Ellie Update
Well it took about four weeks for Ellie to jump up on the couch and make it her preferred napping spot.
She is big time into the bite phase of puppyhood, didn’t take much time to potty train, she comes when called and already knows the treat routine. She’s very aggressive, a good trait if she was going to be a working cow dog. Unfortunately she’s not going to be a cow puppy. I’m not sure if it’s a good trait for a pet. Will work through it.
I’m going to keep her. She’s very sweet when she’s asleep and pretty darn smart. I hope to get a decent nights sleep soon.
Until next time, Yeehaw 🤠
Miss Ellie
A new puppy is arriving today. I hope her name fits. Her given name is Elvira, to hard for me to say and I don’t like two syllables in a dog name. The vets assistant came up with Ellie, better I think.
Ranch Ride
Sister Katie took me for a ride through the ranch. We did West to East, didn’t have time to do the 3 creek drainage’s. Will do those next, they are better done with a four wheeler or side by side or ideally on horseback.
It was a great afternoon, the range looks great as do the fences. I didn’t see any cows; they were in the creek bottoms or in the shade of the timber.
I have never seen an antelope on the ranch, I didn’t think they were in this part of Montana.
The Birthday Present
Oh my I have a new puppy and all the joy that will ensue. Crate training, potty training, rescue everything that goes into the mouth and general …
