Planning to get new photos this next year.  I turn 60 this year!  Where does all the time go when we are having fun.  Still have not figured out what to do with this place I call home. The bank has made my life a living hell on earth. Have wanted to sell out but the very thought of moving makes me a little ill!

My next life I want to come back as a Bernese Mountain Dog puppy! The homes my babies get are totally awesome!

Never see family around.  Kids gone and some of them kindof hateful!  Took me off facebook!  Won't let the grandkids come to visit. Well someday they won't even have that to worry with.

The Beginning of my riding career!  From Sears catalog my mother ordered me my first horse! Really cute his name was Joey! I think this picture is the reason my sister and brother don't speak to me.  At least my brother doesn't.  I miss my mom so much she was a bit on the crazy side! Guess that is why I am too!

I have not had any motivation lately to even ride my horses that I still own.  That is even sadder!  But those many years of horses and now they are all but gone from our small town of Lakeside.  Sign of the times.

Puppy puppy puppy!  We all can use some help now and again. Love my dogs.  They are a giant part of our world here at the ranch.  Don't have but a couple of litters a year but even at that they are so much work.  It is a occupation that one should look at very closely before taking it up. I live for the very much important letters of my babies after they go home and see the love and the caring that they are receiving.

Favorite " Sue wants to be a horse trainer" picture.  I don't know who got the worst of all the mud me or the pony! This was a BLM horse that I worked out and trained for a lady! I got all the mud from just pickin up her feet! Damn sometimes things are hard to do! Just like life is hard to do! No easy short cuts or half assed jobs to do.  Work every day and then you get to die.

Guess that is why my kids aren't around.  Mom always worked too much. I really don't see myself living anywhere other than here. Scooter will be here always and only wish Bear could be here too.

Scooter and I back in my barrel racing days.  Scooter didn't care much for barrel racing.  Scooter will be 30 years old this year.  Times are getting short for all of us. He told me that he hopes that there are lots of cows up in heaven that he can chase! We think that we miss all the pasture runs after cows before we lost Jim. Scooter is a one in a million horse that you only get one chance in life to have one like him!
