Getting Ready To Go

We will be sending these 85 head out to the feedlot tomorrow morning. 

 J had been worried about the temperature difference between here and there.  But not to worry, the cold has arrived here now.  No more 70 degree days (I wasn't complaining)

Now it is 20's with the wind and snow blowing.  Now J just has to organize the haul out and I have to write the health papers and they are ready to go.

Brother The Clown

Brother is always getting into things he is not suppose to.

 This is where I found him yesterday when I went to catch him for a ride.

 And at 40 degrees I don't think he was too hot.  He just likes being where he shouldn't be.

He better not give me any grief the next time we have to cross a creek.

Just Kit Sunday #93

Kit Kat was very busy this week and wouldn't stand still for his picture.

Things to do, places to go, people to see.

De Decorating

It was just 4 short weeks ago that V went with me to pick out a tree.  

 This year she was the first one to hang an ornament since E was still off  at school.

 But today E was home to help me undecorate.

 It's a sad process that takes me all day.

This is what happens when 2 short people are taking the ornaments off a 9 foot tree without a ladder.
Now the house is ready for a fresh start to 2016, Happy New Year.

Good Fences #93 Three Sides of the Yard

Encircling our yard is a 7 strand, high tensile fence three strands of which are electric.   

Kit Kat is sitting in front of the east side. 

 And on Sunday, when the temperature was close to 70 degrees, E took her hammock out, hung it between the Yoshima Cherry trees in front of the fence and enjoyed the west side of the yard.  A day to remember, December 27th and 70 degrees, nice.

 V gave me a new camera for Christmas and I was trying out the zoom lens towards the south.  The fence is barely even noticeable (except for the bluebird house).  Pay close attention to the small green clearing at the far right just under a V in the mountain chain.

 And there it is with the full 8x zoom.

And Wrangler is not exactly in front of a fence, just his easel in front of a corral panel, but he wanted to share that some of his artwork is now being offered for sale on Ebay.  Check out his listings HERE.

and Happy New Year.

It's Done!!!! Wrangler Can Paint Is On Ebay

Wrangler Can Paint!  And you can buy one too!

Wrangler The Painting Horse

I've created my first listing on ebay!

You can find it HERE.

I changed my mind about ETSY and went with ebay instead.  Took me a couple of hours to do everything but I think the next ones shouldn't take as long.  

Now I just have to wait and see.  

Christmas Gift Craft

So now that it is after Christmas I can reveal one of the gifts I made.

I found a picture of a cool box made from magazine (on Pinterest again) and thought "perfect for my sister that collects boxes".

After a little trial and error I think it turned out pretty neat.

I can imagine lots of possibilities for this craft.  And I love turning something that would just be thrown away into something worth keeping.
