Living the dream

I've been away for quite a whole and kind of forgot about blogging but here is the low-down. I've been trapping beaver and muskrats, traveling to Idaho, Utah, and Colorado delivering bulls and day working. Lou and I also made a quick trip to Jackson to watch the snowmobile hill climbs and did a short trip with a friend of ours sledding above Lander.

Morning Sunrise

Good Morning,
What a beautiful sunrise here this morning.  I rolled over and looked through the curtains and saw orange...I thought the neighbors place was on fire due to the crazy amount of color.  Once I woke up a little I could see it was just a beautiful sunrise and there was no fire at all.
I have traps to check more to put out today! Have a great day everybody!
