Baxter Black: Faces of the cattle business

The cattle business today has evolved into several distinct segments.

From Pipi's Pasture: Planting the garden at the ranch

We worked hard, so we ate hearty meals when I was growing up on the ranch.

Wendy Reynolds: Dedication appreciated

I would like to personally thank the members of the Yampa Valley OHV Trailriders who recently donated their Sunday to cleaning up a mile stretch along BLM Road 1596 on Duffy Mountain.

Jessie Gorley: Don’t leave dogs in cars

Every year, dogs die after being locked inside cars while their owners shop or run other errands.

Beginning in June, coaches are coordinating efforts to make sure student-athletes can increase their performance potential.

Baxter Black: Me and Albert

Back in the days before satellite TV, cellphones, video players, Netflix and laptops, many ranchers in the West were isolated from civilization.

From Pipi's Pasture: A shopping day in Craig, part 2

When my sisters and I were kids, Dad and Mom sometimes planned a full day of shopping in Craig.

Over A Cup: Spring salad that’s good anytime

We’ll be branding calves at our place this weekend.

Janet Sheridan: Mars and Venus shop

A pervasive joke about the shopping tendencies of men and women alleges that a man will pay $2 for a $1 item he wants, while a woman will pay $1 for a $2 item she doesn’t want.
