Matt was right. We keep calling this place a ranch, but I don’t think one adorable golden doodle qualifies a place as a ranch. Time for a new Mascot so that we could be a proper “ranch”! Please welcome Elvis and Presley! These two love bugs were the result of a late-night campfire chat and a bottle of Jack Daniels that led to a discussion about how cute Mini Cows are and that we needed some animals to be true to our word. The conversation somehow posed a challenge to Matt and he felt compelled to execute! Two weeks later, we added our next permanent residents to the “ranch”.
Elvis is black as night and the moment I saw his fluffy hair on the top of his head, he was instantly Elvis! Presley took a little more time to grow into her name, we thought of Tupelo, Priscilla, or maybe even Gracie, but once it rolled off the Tongue, Elvis and Presley, that was it :) Presley did come at a bit of a discount because of her wonky horn, but we love her for it! Elvis is the lover and Presley is the pain. She likes to rule the roost! Piper gave them a warm welcome and they were fast friends and love running around the field together.
With our 3 trusty mascots in place, we still had some work to do to get everything ready for the 4th mascot on the way!
Flying over ranch when I found the listing Moving boulders with the dozer Creating 30 foot bonfires regularly
The first part of the project took one year, 16 hour days of working to the bone, with a tight knit crew of six amazing, creative and hard-working people you'll find.
Bringing Oli home to the Airstream had its challenges, so luckily our in-laws were kind enough to let us share their house until… the first dome was complete! We lived with Oli in our Morii dome for about 6 weeks and created some of my favorite memories during that time.
