Out here on the Ranch, we pride ourselves on cohabitating with all of GOD’s creatures. We do our best to let the deer, the turkeys and Coyotes roam, the Owls hunt at will, the Black Vultures (who by the way are protected) clean up around the Ranch, and the snakes slither where they like. It’s […]

Sitting here at work this evening during some ‘down time’ we’re having at the Fire Station. It’s Thursday, which really means absolutely nothing here at work. We like to think certain days mean we are […]
How I got started as a female in Cattle Ranching
In today’s world, there are more and more women becoming independent and finding their niche, and many have chosen farming and ranching.
