		<description><![CDATA[When’s the last time we had rain? Five weeks ago? Six weeks ago? When will our dependable Mediterranean climate finally kick in and scatter raindrops on our upturned cheeks? I’m going to tell this story backwards. Trust me, it’s better this way, albeit illogical. I’m telling it this way because everything is hitched to everything [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The leaves are turning, the air is crisp, and winter&#8217;s on its way. It&#8217;s good to be here in Nevada County, and great to be outside. Just a few words from Jim here, at the beautiful Personeni ranch, describing the chores and challenges ahead. The summer hay, the decent early rain we received (but we [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s so dry here, and so hot, and (at least for me) this has not been the best of all possible years. Beginning with an apocalyptic bang from rounds of live ammo sent airborne near our house by a drunken neighbor on New Year’s Eve, the year has meandered through a minefield of small and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently, during one of those fogbound, bone-chilling mornings, I rode shotgun with Jim as he checked the cows down south, in rural Lincoln, California. Why Lincoln? Because it’s tough to find enough contiguous acreage within Nevada County proper that suits the exacting requirements of Jim’s expanding herd. So he leases 400 acres from his friend [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was a matter of traction. And precipitation. And temperature working on the precipitation, mostly, that kept me, my car without chains or 4WD, and the camera at home today. Plus Jim&#8217;s stern admonition: &#8220;You stay home today, OK!&#8221; Really a command rather than advice. But that&#8217;s how it goes with Jim. Sounds gruff but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Where did October go? After an enormous amount of time with the box (the computer), I finally got out again to ride the range with Jim. Now the hills are lush with green stubble, the dust is gone, leaves golden, and the tang of woodsmoke scents the air. But enough of that. We all know [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jim has gone missing. That’s right: missing. Now don’t worry, it’s been only a month. A month of pestering him, calling him, haranguing him to get together so I can snap a picture of: a blue cow the now-green dryland pasture the white baby cow And… nada. Every time we set a date, he’s a [...]]]></description>

And here&#8217;s the long and short of it: Roger was a riot, the food was fantastic, the music superb, the dancing lively, Jim got dunked and then leied, and [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s hot, I&#8217;m not wearing the right shoes for this, and to get to the water tank we have to ford an irrigation ditch then slip between some very shiny new barbed wire. On the way up we [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“We’ll take the motorcycle,” says Jim. Huh? As usual, he is kidding. And remorseless. As a hint of warmth creeps into the day on the morning breeze, we walk to the barn and clamber onto the gator. Today I&#8217;ve stopped by to look at Jim’s latest project, or rather, one more milestone in a project [...]]]></description>
