Corner Post~ Seeing all sides of the fence.: March 2011
http://cornerfencepost.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 30, 2011. Many small operations are 'rural residence farms' that specialize in beef cow-calf production with their income from off-farm sources exeeds that from the farm. Beef cattle production is considered by consumers to be the 2nd largest "factory farming" species/industry. Doesn't sound like there are many of those types of farms and ranches out there.

Corner Post~ Seeing all sides of the fence.: May 2011
http://cornerfencepost.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 31, 2011. Behind every good cowboy. There are cute signs out there. You know the type. Behind every good rancher is a wife with a town job. Why do so many work off the farm or ranch? Everyone's first assumption is money. In a roundabout way that is true. I would say it is insurance. The cost of insuring your self is too expensive to not have someone work off the place and obtain employer paid insurance. Links to this post. Thursday, May 26, 2011. Ag in the Classroom.

Corner Post~ Seeing all sides of the fence.: September 2011
http://cornerfencepost.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 27, 2011. Once again I have taken a hiatus. I need to get my act together. Sorry for all those who foolishly, I mean, foolheartedly, I mean follow this blog. It has been a story of whirlwind life. I have been to Montana, Oregon, Nevada, Idaho, and California in the last month doing life things. Plus, you throw in two sick kids and UGH! The blog falls behind. Bad news is- we have had budget cuts, changes in adminstration, and and more turmoil than this neophyte would like. I am educated...

Corner Post~ Seeing all sides of the fence.: Inspiration
http://cornerfencepost.blogspot.com/2012/04/inspiration.html
Tuesday, April 24, 2012. A social media "friend" of mine just posted the most awesome quote Never give up on something you dream about everyday. For me, it is owning livestock. I dream about taking care of my own calves and foals as a full time job. I will keep trying. I currently work two full time jobs now one in extension and one as a mother. One is for money, the other is for hugs, dirty faces, and smiles. June 30, 2012 at 12:24 PM. God bless and thanks for reading! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

http://cornerfencepost.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 15, 2011. I am the 1%. I can't help myself- I am the 1%. You know. The one percent that helps feed the other 99%. I am the 1% which believes I take better care of the land than what regulations and policy can. I have a town job and still try to raise a healthy wholesome crop of beef cattle. Links to this post. Wednesday, November 9, 2011. I was country, when country wasn't cool. Then there is me. I do my thing. Try to live in my world. The funny thing is when we all get toge...When did ...

Corner Post~ Seeing all sides of the fence.: Overbooked
http://cornerfencepost.blogspot.com/2012/01/overbooked.html
Thursday, January 12, 2012. For the next ten days, I am overbooked. I have only said I would be at the absolute number of meetings I have to but, they seem to keep scheduling them on top of each other. I could really use some help but due to the state of california's budget, it doesn't look like I am going to get any reprieve. I am annoyed that both meetings I was supposed to or was invited to attend today were cancelled. I guess I can catch up on other annoyances. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Tuesday, January 10, 2012. 14 cattle trucks burned. Http:/ www.democraticunderground.com/1002145329#post4. Animal rights terrorists have hit a new low. They detonated fire bombs to burn up fourteen cattle trucks. Thank goodness no one has been deemed injured but the possibility is there. This is sad. If you don't agree, vote at the grocery store.

Corner Post~ Seeing all sides of the fence.: Finally Some Time
http://cornerfencepost.blogspot.com/2012/04/finally-some-time.html
Tuesday, April 17, 2012. Finally found some time. Life has been catching up to me. For several weeks my small son T.M. was extremely sick. We spent several days in a pediatric unit and have been going back and forth to the local hospital for tests. Then, spring work started. So, it was bust your but to get as much done in a four day work week, at the town job, then off to work the fun job. The fun job includes- pairing out cows and calves to a different field, doctoring sick animals, and tagging calves.
