Dear Ranch Wife On a Parts Run;
My son entered junior high this year, and he has gained a few friends who could be a bad influence. One of them frequently skips school and has been rumored to use drugs.
My son is a very compassionate person, and he tells me these kids really need a friend. (more…)
On Friday afternoon, a huge ferocious looking thunderstorm toenailed across Elm Springs, leaving .60 inches of rain at the “Big House” and 2 inches at the Lynn and Sandy Fields residence.
Several of the kind citizens attended the ordination of Father Tyler Dennis at the Cathedral in Rapid City Friday night.
And several of the kind cititzens (perhaps mostly women) attended Beth Wilson’s bridal shower at the Elm Springs Fire Hall Saturday morning.

The Catholic view of an ordination is essentially that the priest is marrying the Church, the Bride of Christ so to speak. And Tyler (now Father Tyler) looked the part of the groom, beaming from ear to ear.

Grandpa died in 1983, and Grandma died in 2004, but it’s still “Grandma’s House.” (more…)
The next day, one of the neighbors came to help Joe with the job we didn’t get done the day before, which turned out to be sorting all the bulls off and moving them to the bull pasture behind the house, and moving the cows to another pasture.
