Remembering 9/11
It has been a decade since that terrible day on September 11, 2001. And although New York City, Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C. are 2,000 miles from Wyoming, we felt the shock wave from sea to shining sea. As the towers fell, we stood. No longer segmented by region, background or industry. We weren’t ranchers orContinue reading “Remembering 9/11”
On A Roll
My farmer husband and I have been irrigating all summer. And when I say “my husband and I,” I mean, mostly him, and rarely me. I have a cushy office job and he does the real work. However, I was along on one trip to help roll out plastic ditch in early July. I amContinue reading “On A Roll”

Does everyone know what time it is?
TOOL TIME! Ok, not quite, but I had to give a shout-out to that lovable and mishap-plagued Tim Allen. It’s irrigation time in Wyoming. We don’t usually get enough precipiation to irrigate row crops, so we use flood and pivot irrigation to bring on the green. My husband raises malt barley, corn, sugarbeets and pintoContinue reading “Does everyone know what time it is?”
Shearing Bliss
The average American spends $21 on a haircut. The average sheep spends $0 on a haircut. Mostly because they don’t have hair; they have wool. And they don’t have money. Or the ability to say what style they’d like. Or a ride to the salon. There are a lot of obstacles in the way. So,Continue reading “Shearing Bliss”

Today is May 12. Today is the 54th day of Spring. Today it snowed. A lot. Send airplane tickets to Florida immediately. And a hand to take care of the operation while we’re gone. Posted by RealPartner Liz Lauck – Wyoming Stock Growers Association
A Salute to Rural Moms
Moms are special! Here at RealRanchers.com we share and celebrate rural Wyoming living and, in honor of Mother’s Day, we’d like to recognize Rural Mother’s everywhere. Our Facebook followers (those who like us, who really like us!) came up with this list of “You Might Be A Rural Mom If…” Only edited slightly for formattingContinue reading “A Salute to Rural Moms”
Spring Cleaning, Part II
Last week we published a love story. Rancher meets manure; rancher gathers manure; rancher spreads manure. It gets me all choked up inside! Ok, so maybe it’s not quite a love story. Nonetheless, the photos I found online to illustrate the manure saga, didn’t quite do justice to this part of ranch life. So lastContinue reading “Spring Cleaning, Part II”
