The Journal of Plymouth Rock Ranch

Our oldest son, Skylar, turns 18 years old today. That thought takes some processing. He was my biggest baby at 8 lbs 8 oz and is now my biggest child, measuring in at over 6 feet.
I vividly remember the day of his birth. I especially remember the day after his birth. [...]

is our woodburning stove pipe? Oh where, oh where could it be? With the wind blowing strong, and the air getting cold, oh where, oh where can it be?
It’s supposed to be in the hands of UPS, which gives us no comfort at all, as UPS has a terrible service history here [...]

We’ve wanted a garden ever since we moved to the property. But there is so much to do when developing a piece of a cattle ranch with absolutely no improvements when you start! It is hard to say we’re doing this first and this second………
Two deciding factors in determining priority so far have [...]

About 2 weeks ago, we had our first campfire of the season. Ryker built a new campfire ring and BBQ alley. It looks sort of like a thermometer : )
We have a round metal ring that we scavenged from somewhere. This makes the inside ring of the fire ring. Ryker gathered [...]

Callan turned 20 years old yesterday. Ashley, who is in California, knew that she would miss being here for this special birthday. She tried last year to coordinate a surprise party for Callan’s birthday, but because of the death of a dear friend, that party was canceled.
So, this year, Ashley wanted to try [...]

Last Saturday, we were blessed to have the VF Intern Class of 2008 out to Plymouth Rock Ranch. It was a blessed day of getting to know these six fine young men.
We started the day with putting Skylar into quarantine as he woke up sick : ( That was a bummer as I [...]

This morning I woke up and remembered a couple of other pets we’ve had since we’ve been married that are worthy of mentioning.
The first one was a little kitty that Rick rescued for a despicably dirty rental home.  He was there fixing a bathroom issue.  She was a sweet little furball.  I was 8 months [...]

I’ve been tagged again. I received my first two tags within a couple of weeks.
This tag came from our friends over at Lifeinashoe. Deana wrote about different pets in her life and tagged us to share some about our pets. So, here goes.

Peter Schiff predicted the current financial crisis in our country. Take a moment to listen to this report and incredible scoffing done by Art Laffer who vehemently disagreed with Mr. Schiff’s prediction.

I think Mr. Laffer owes Mr. Schiff much more than the penny he bet. How ’bout a humble apology?

In my post, Projects, Projects, Projects, I shared the top 4 projects of the moment. We’ve made a tad bit of progress since that post that I’ll share here.
Project #1 – Getting the Utility Shed enclosed to waterproof it.
We’ve now put about 1/2 of the OSB exterior walls up. We also got [...]

The ramifications of the State of California’s decision to legalize sodomite marriages, are now starting to come to light.
The State of California has changed their marriage licenses to now read “Party 1″ and “Party 2″. There is no more “Bride” and “Groom.” There is now “Party 1″ and “Party 2.” These new [...]

With the economic slowdown has come a work slowdown for our family. This is bad in the sense that there is little money coming in from our business. This is good in the sense that Rick and the boys are home and are working on the two most important projects we have right [...]
