I admit it. I confess. And, to Kroger stores everywhere, I am sorry. I, like many of my Drowsy Water Ranch counterparts, am a baked good snob. You see, it all started so innocently. In the summer, we just show up for lunch and dinner and end up getting spoiled. For those few, fleeting weeks that we welcome families and friends here at Drowsy Water Ranch, we also welcome to our diet homemade baked goods: homemade cinnamon rolls, homemade breads, homemade cookies, cakes, and pies. Yes, we are spoiled so much in summer that, in winter, grocery store bought baked goods just don't do the trick, [...]

iOutdoors: Drowsy Water has “app” for fun

Ken is currently slaving away to get this year's Drowsy Water Ranch newsletter to the printer in the coming week. We'll be mailing out the paper copy soon and hope you'll read your copy cover to cover to learn about ranch news. This is a sneak peek at one of the articles about our kids' program, a true highlight of a Colorado Dude Ranch Family Vacation! And, if you need a copy sent to you, let us know! We'd be happy to send one pony express. Driving up the dirt road, twelve-year old Tommy started to wonder just what his mom and dad had [...]

First Signs of Spring

Slowly, slowly, the snow is melting away! Spring is finally on the way. We have our staff hired for the summer (well, pretty much), we have our spring ranch projects rolling (kind-of), and the cows will start calving any day now (maybe).Soon, flowers will start just popping up all over the place. Look at these beautiful tulips that sprang up just right outside my front door.I love orange flowers.How beautiful.Okay, maybe, just maybe. . .I am getting a little ahead of myself here.

Hijacking the DWR Blog

 This is Lauren: summer wrangler and winter office assistant extraordinaire. I'm filling in for Gretta this week while she sunbathes on powder white beaches and swims in clear, turquoise waters.I'm not jealous at all. I like to think that mud season on the ranch is a lot like a tropical paradise.Now, I was originally going to devote this post to my fantastic wrangling abilities, my gorgeous horse, and my humility. But everyone already knows these things and there's no sense in preaching to the choir, so instead I'll leave you guys with some pictures of last summer to remind us that the mud season will one [...]
