Home on the range

I have been wanting to practice my camera skills so after working on the property I asked Cecelia to indulge me a little especially since we still had day light.

We drove the truck out on the pasture ( did I tell you I love that?) and went out by
our large burn pile that we can't wait to take care of, maybe this week.

She was pretty patient with me, even though she doesn't look it right now, she picked up a stick and proceeded to break it, this is her "look how strong I am look"!

"Mom" she's saying , I'm saying " wait wait wait, I almost got it. "

We had to include our or rather her baby "Angelica". She's getting use to our
new home.

I told her that she was being a good subject and I really appreciated it. Then....

Mr. Home on the range joined our shoot.

He told me to call him the "One arm mandit". I love this one of my
two ranch hands. We have been working really well together. Thanks guys!

Where ever Cecelia goes on the property, Miss Angelica is not far behind.

Back at ya later.

At home

So it's amazing just how things

can change, we are getting settled in our new abode here in B -Valley and I have found how

much one can get done when one doesn't watch the tele. The first couple of weeks we didn't

have television nor Internet and it was kinda nice. I wasn't born with the green thumb gene

like my mom or my husband but I do love working outdoors! Call me a John Wayne

& Maureen Ohara hopeless romantic, but when I'm walking around this property I can go back in time (working the ranch) and picture the bunkhouse, ranchers and cowhands.

I think

I would have been a great Ma Ingalls.

Any whoo,

a great lady told me when

she is working the soil and land it's very therapeutic, I have to concur.

My dear Hubby hurt himself the 8th of January and I know he may not agree, but I feel it's been somewhat of a blessing. We have tried to get into a routine with me getting him ready for the day etc. And even though he has only one useful hand, he gets outside and

walks around with the clippers and prunes what he can. He's pretty good at lists and

I have to say I like crossing off stuff. Today the sun was shining and it's February all ready. I Told hubby that I would like to journal our time here and keep track on the calendar the projects and/or tasks that we accomplish. One of my goals this month is to get back to

maintaining this here blog. All in good time.
