Perhaps not a hummer? This guy really intimidated the humming birds, they were very happy when he flew off.

Well, it is spring...and the lawn grows...and you bring in the sheep to graze it down!! 
Big Bluff Ranch started with Vicky's parents in 1960 (see the "about us" tab), but my family, the Dawleys, has long felt a connection to the ranch too. My mom, Mary Dawley, made the stained glass window of the ranch logo for us in the early 1990's. It is very special to look out the window at this beautiful ranch, and know how much it means to us all.

Our first fisherman of the 2011 arrived today. Jeff has been coming to fish with us since the early 1990's, he knows he has found a good "spot". Here is a photo of him docking our new fishing boat, complete with seats with BACKS !!! You can see the water is a little murky from the big rain we had a week ago, but it clears up pretty quickly. I will report more when I debrief Jeff on Friday.

We have a standing joke around here that Margo is "still graduating from college" because on our old site, she still was. In other words, our old site hasn't been update in quite a few years.

As we move into 2011, we wanted to update our site with both content and functionality. The new content is everywhere, just click around to learn all about us and what is new. The new functionality can be found in the "book a visit" and "events" tab. Both of these tabs are super cool ways for you to visit the ranch.

Our book a visit page allows you to book a night or week up at the lake. While you are up there, feel free to fish or vegetate or some combination of both.

Our events page lists all of the shindigs we're hosting this year. We are planning to have a "open ranch" weekend over Easter, a range walk in June, and a harvest fest in Oct. Feel to register for any one of these events.

Thanks for checking out our site and we hope to see you soon on the ranch
