I am really glad I got permission first to go on this property!

HILLERY in Owyhee
Oh, I love this sign for many reasons! (and I have no political leanings in this race one way or the other - particularly since it doesn't matter anyway in Idaho. Although I'm sooooo glad the Donald joined the race! He's got the best/worst hair.)
In case you can't read it, it sez,
HILLERY ?
ARE YOU KIDDING ME ?
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

Owyhee Christmas in June
June 10 2015
Who needs a blue spruce or white fir Christmas tree? Where you gonna find it in the summer on the desert? Who needs it only in December anyway? Here in Owyhee you just have to adapt. Overgrown (6 foot), out-of-control, invasive thistles happily stand in as Christmas trees in July. Happy Holidays!

Owyhee Signage
We're spread out in Owyhee county, but still live 'close.' We all *try* to get along - farmers, ranchers, riders, ATVers, bikers, neighbors, and the BLM.
But it doesn't always work.

Owyhee Wallerin'
It's great when your Owyhee riding partner is willing to take time out of your ride, if you just gotta stop and waller in the snow in the Owyhee mountain foothills. Particularly if you can't ever get enough of snow in a dismally dry winter.
Note the thumbs up gesture up top. And for the record, the horses both thought I was a little nuts.

Owyhee: God's Country
Tuesday March 3 2015
It's a coooooooold windy enough Owyhee day for full chaps. My favorite temperature!
It's God's Country. Although not so much in the summer.

Owyhee Drunk Tank
They stagger around, nearly fall over; they drool from hanging lips, and they have to sleep it off.
Not from alcohol, but good drugs that tranquilize them for their visit with the dentist!

Owyhee Cheater
No, we're not talking a cheating partner. This kind of cheater you are happy to see in Owyhee. The little log-on-a-chain helps you open a tight barbed wire gate with leverage.

Little Idaho Barbed Wire
Got Idaho?
Currently in Owyhee Designs stock is this charming little Idaho barbed wire piece (if barbed wire can be called "charming"). It's approximately 11 inches by 8 inches, made of gen-u-ine Owyhee barbed wire, weathered, collected, shaped, sweated over and swore at in Owyhee County, Idaho.
These Idaho pieces are currently available. (I also have large ones, but when I figure out how to ship them, I'll post them!). Price is $16, including shipping (USA only!). Email OwyheeDesigns at gmail dot com.

Owyhee Tumblefence
Tumbleweeds + Barbed Wire Fence = Owyhee Tumblefence
I sure hope it's not my turn to fix this barbed wire fence.

New Year's Fireworks
January 1 2015
Owyhee fireworks don't have to be the noisy kind. A spectacular colorful sunset takes your breath away and celebrates the New Year just as well.
