“Excuse my messy house.” — Said no straight man ever. The main entrance to my house is the garage. We have a front door, but everyone comes in through the garage and mud room. The dump rooms. Dog hair and mud and sometimes a baby calf hanging out. Another New Year’s intention of mine. I […]

My studio. This is where the magic happens friends. My studio. Which is just an extra room in our walk-out basement. I think we originally planned it to be an “exercise” room. As if that was ever going to happen. I don’t think it really qualifies as a basement. It’s just the lower level of […]

Yesterday was the winter solstice. I consider this to be the first day of the new year. I think the calendar makers screwed up. They were most assuredly men.

I flew to California last week to visit my girl. As I was leaving the house for the airport, I looked over at my cowboy hat and thought “Why not?” I’ve always thought that flying with my hat would be a pain, and it is. However, those of you who know me know how attached […]

This might be the second “Most Embarrassing Moment in Agriculture” but pales in comparison to #1 So picture this….. I get invited to go help two good-looking cowboys get some cattle in to sort the calves off to go to the sale barn then take the mother cows to a different pasture. Picture me trying […]
