Little H-Bar Ranch This is an aerial view of the Little H-Bar Ranch, taken around 1990. The oak tree in the center of the pasture has since fallen down. |

The Barn This is the barn in Little H-Bar Ranch. We have 8 stalls, a hay room and a tack room. Two of the stalls are filled with hay and junk, but the other six are available for use by the horses during the rainy season. Gizzy and Dragon, our two barn cats, are often found up in the rafters over the tack room, meowing loudly and hiding from Clancy, the ranch dog. |

The Tractor This is Garrett's tractor. It comes in very handy for piling up poop to make compost, mowing the fields, and tilling the pastures. He also uses it to pull fence posts up, level the driveway and carry around loads of rocks. |
|
Inside the Vegetable Garden This is a picture of the vegetable garden taken in the summer of 1999. Frequent ranch visitor and good friend Mark Robinson designed and built the garden, which is fortified from beneath with gopher wire. Each year the tomato plants get larger due to the terrific and inexhaustible supply of compost! |

Flowers Outside the Vegetable Garden
There are nasturtiums, lantana and sweet alyssum growing on the fence outside the Vegetable Garden. Hummingbirds frequent these flowers, as well as mockingbirds. |

Some Roses These are a few of the rose bushes and fruit trees growing along side the number one pasture. The roses include Pascali, Mr. Lincoln, Queen Elizabeth and Stirling Silver. |
|
|
Persimmon Tree This is the persimmon tree that grows next to the number one pasture. In the fall, it produces loads of sweet orange fruit, but not until after the leaves fall off. Then they look like Christmas ornaments hanging off the bare branches. |

More Nasturtiums These nasturtiums grow next to the house. |

Naked Ladies Naked ladies are a type of lily that emerge all at once, and don't have any leaves. |
