well...I was just walkin along when....



Ok ..We have for years been trying to find the elusive Fairburn.

We were in the Badlands again this weekend.

Actually, my VBF and I have been thinking we were trying to find the elusive Fairburn, when all along we had been sidetracked with other fabulous finds. Although..I do believe Sharon has found a couple fairburns without us realizing it.

It was my turn!!
and like I said...I was just walking along..when...I looked down and something was waving at me trying to catch my eye....

It's about time!


They showed themselves! Only briefly...but long enough that I could go pet and touch and check everyone. Everyone had all their hooves and snouts and tails and ears. Never know what to expect out in this country sometimes!! I hardly recognized my little yearling Jersey from last year too. She is almost as big as my 3 yr olds. It has only been 3 weeks since I have had a close up view and boy do they grow this time of year. They are glossy and fat and very content. I didn't have my fly pour with me when I found them and regret that, as it was a brief encounter last night and then were off again. No sign of them this morning, but at least I was worry free about them for one evening :)

looking for lost souls...


again ..no luck tonite..they have found a hidden paradise that I have not stumbled onto yet. It is like they cross into the mists and I don't see them until they want to be seen. Silly cattle, well..I am not too worried, as they can't escape the pasture (I don't think). And they showed up the next morning right in my own barnyard after that last long search. Now, if they show up tomorrow morning and are still smiling, I am going to get worried. At least we caught a gorgeous sunset!!

Hear those waves...


last night we were out to check the cows and searched and searched and searched...never finding them, but we did see this. I mean who would want to be found if you had a view like this everyday!! Well, they must of been playing a game of cat and mouse with me and zigging when I was zaggin because we came home without even a trace. This morning, they were all grazing with contented smirks on their face and by the time I headed to town to work, they were making haste for the river side again. They know where the air is cool and the flies are few!!
