Ranch Patrol

About me:

Hi, my name is Vickie. I love God, Ranch Man, my family, and I love Texas.
I'm a retired secretary from a wholesale fishing tackle business.   
I'm Ranch Man's gate opener and chief cook & bottle washer. I love to work in the vegetable garden, work with my dogs, do for others and help my man with all the things that come along with ranch life. 

I was taught to hand quilt by my mother-in-law over 25 years ago. We would meet once a week with 4 other women at my in-laws old bunk house and take turns quilting each others quilts.  
I blog when I can and think the best thing about it, is meeting women with the same interests as I have from all over the world.

This is the "Ranch Patrol Foreman". 
He loves to work cows and does all kinds of tricks. 

 This is Bella Buttons, the "Ranch Patrol Baby".
She's in training for ranch duties. 
Learning the easy lessons first: like every ranch dog needs to know where to cool off.
and how to sniff out wild hogs and other critters.
Most important lesson is how to run and have fun.
The "Little Red Ranch Dog", who is in charge of inside security and is Ranchman's sidekick.
 Isn't it funny how big ole men have little ole bitty dogs.
Everyone has something to teach. 

Thanks for taking time to get to know us.
"The Ranch Patrol" and I  hope you'll drop in often to find out what's going on here at the ranch.
