More Totally Random

More fun photos that fall in to the category…random.

Just another empty lick tub pyramid with boys on top. If you don’t understand this caption, you must not be a rancher’s kid.

One Sunday afternoon with the Drum boys, Josiah Phipps and Stockton

Carolina and Daisy (we’re babysitting her)

Interesting cloud formation

On closer inspection, it just seems to be a giant feather floating about

This last day of February turned out to be so cold. We got quiet a bit of snow yesterday with more ice pellets during the night. The men have had to get out and feed, break water and cut wood, but we girls have stayed pretty close to the fire:)

The Lizard’s Lair

We’ve been making a few changes around here. Stockton now has
his own room. His first order of business was to move his lizards, turtle, and fish into his new digs. I think it turned out very well. Quite cozy actually.

February Cloud Show

It was a good month for sky photos. Actually, I haven’t ever experienced a bad month for sky photos. Unless it would be during the two bad drought years. (You need a few clouds to get a really awesome sunset or sunrise) But I digress, back to February…

The Northfield News

If you sneak into Carolina’s room, this is what you might see:

She’s started writing her own paper called “The Northfield News”.

It’s all typed up on a vintage typewriter. We’ve had a lot of fun reading it. If you’d like to subscribe (.25 per copy), get in touch with Carolina at carolina@shannonranch.net
