    No doubt they are part of the problem.

    That is the problem, no competition. I think it all started with medical insurance and it has been snowballing ever since.

    I think the insurance racket has a lot to do with the hospital cost. If I had insurance they would have been billed $2700, and I would have never even questioned it. Obama care made things even worse. Of course every time government tries to fix something they usually end up making it much...

    They are going to build a new hospital here that is not affiliated with the current hospital. I think they just broke ground, unless the new building is for something else, but I am pretty sure it is for the new hospital. I'm not so sure that the community can support two hospitals.

    I got the estimated bill from the hospital today. It was a little over $2700, to honest I'm a bit livid about it. I was only in there for a little over an hour. They soaked my fingers and sewed up my thumb, and used some glue the glue the rest of me together. Because I am self pay they took...

    When I was a teenager we had a outboard motor that needed to be overhauled. Dad was helping the guy at the marina drive the pins out of the pistons. He missed and hit this guys thumb. He never said a thing, went and sat on snowmachine he had in his shop. Dad it it hard, as he was giving it...

    No, I should have been.

    T-post one, me zero

    I made it through the night without it bleeding to much but broke it open buttoning my jeans this morning. Changed the dressing and then went to feed. It don't look like I will be doing a whole lot the next few days. The thumb and finger is cut open kind of in a bad spot. As dad likes to...

    It was a short post to start with, I should have used the sledge hammer. I wanted the post behind pipe elbow so the water would not push it off. I had 10' piece of pipe to install and one more elbow, well that didn't happen.

    Well it was a trip to the ER for some stitches. Stitches in the thumb and glue on the finger. It happened about 1:30 This afternoon, but didn't decide to go to the ER until 4:30. The nurse at the ER couldn't believe that I took a nap before going in. I lifted the post pounder a bit to high...

    Western Ranch supply in Billing has 5"x8' pointed post for $19. I just picked up eleven 8' railroad ties for about $15 at a local auction. I need some more, so I guess I will pick up some of those $19 post when I take dad to his doctor appointment in Billings.

    Gaffers tape on cowboy boots

    I know the feeling. I had a pair of Drew's buckaroos that were worn out, and had not worn them for several years before getting rid of them. Best pair of boots I ever had.

    What to do?

    Dad first bought the farm when he was 69, almost 70, but then I decided to move here as well to help out. I guess one might say I was dumb enough to take over. Dad is still doing some, albeit he does it a bit slower, and I do most of the hard heavy work. He was out corrugating the other day...

    My rant for the day

    It could be worse, you could live next door to a bunch of Air Force Airmen. Go Army, what can I say, I'm an Army guy, well technically a Weekend Warrior.

    My rant for the day

    At least she didn't do what my ex wife did. She planted some flowers, and then later on she ask my uncle why they were all dying. It turns out she sprayed Miracle Gro on the every day.

    My rant for the day

    It can get very cold during the winter. The record coldest was recorded in Yellowstone in 1933 at -66F. Dad talks about riding the Red Desert in January and it never got much above -40F. He broke ice cycles off his horse that were 12" long. Not one cowboy quit because of the cold, oh they...

    My rant for the day

    I tried the vineyard here. Had the cordon arms all grown out, and the next winter they all froze. I'm thinking of pulling then all out and putting in something else, just not sure what yet. Maybe elderberry or wild huckleberry

    My rant for the day

    Ice cream truck, that was only something you seen in the movies when I was growing up. Northwest Colorado had no such thing, well until maybe after I became an adult I might have heard one.
