John Price; Rancher
Tumblr media
Introduction to the AU
Let's meet our candidate!
Where is he from?
Deadwood, SD
Where does he live?
Pitkin, CO
What's his livelihood?
He came from a family of lawmen, but after being a sheriff for 10 years in a corrupted town, he moved to settle down and began his career in ranching, naming his business as the Bravo Six River Ranch.
What are his qualities?
John describes himself as a man who follows his morals and does what’s right. He’s been lonely, but having made a name for himself, he is a hard-working man who has focused on the quality of livestock he sells. Now, he wants to begin a family or at least share his love with his partner to spend the cold winters and beautiful summers with. He also stated he has a penchant for a good glass of whiskey and cigars, often treating himself after a rewarding day on the ranch.
He is vigilant, protective, and a true gentleman who respects traditions and the traits of being the man of the household. Since he does live in quite a small town, he is a provider for the townspeople for their meat while still holding to his oath of protection over the town. The photo he included is a shot of him smoking a cigarette while wearing his cowboy hat, and the one in the ad was of one during his sheriff days.
Biography
John Price was born in 1842 and was raised in Deadwood, South Dakota. He grew up in a family with a history of being lawmen and always felt called to follow in his ancestors' footsteps. As a young man, John became a deputy in the town's sheriff's office and quickly made a reputation of being a tough, no-nonsense lawman.
Over the years, John's reputation as a sheriff grew to legend in the area. He was widely respected and feared as a fair yet ruthless lawman. However, as time went on, he became increasingly disillusioned with the corruption in the judicial system. He saw criminals walk away free while innocent people were prosecuted for crimes they didn't commit. Feeling that the law had failed him, John decided to retire from his position as sheriff and move to the countryside in Pitkin, Colorado.
There, he purchased a ranch and found luck having a well-sized plot of land and named it Bravo Six River Ranch. He began raising livestock such as cattle, a few sheep, and even loved to have a few horses. It was still a tough life, to be sure. John had to work long hours, often amid cold weather and with little help. But found a sense of purpose and fulfillment in the quiet and peaceful town and mountain range that he had never experienced before. 
 He worked tirelessly to create a thriving business, soon earning a reputation as a skilled and reliable rancher. People came from far to buy his livestock, and he was known for both the quality and care of his animals. Despite his newfound peace, John never lost his passion for justice and sense of duty. He has remained a vigilant watchdog, ready to defend his community and friends against any threats that may arise.
John is a real man, a man who can provide for a family, a man who can protect his loved ones. He loves getting to know the people he protects and serves but craves companionship to keep his home warm, seeking someone who can be a helping hand on the ranch as he is tired of living alone.

Day 4 - That’s history!!!
Hello all! I apologize for such a late update. I had my usual morning post all done and ready to go and then no service when I went to post.
The chilly temperature this morning in Custer woke me up early so I decided to take Lily for a walk around the lake as the sun came up. Lily enjoyed all the strange smells and I think she was trying her best to hunt down that bison who was in camp the night before. (Side note, when we pulled out this morning the behemoth beast was standing right at the edge of the road. I guess he likes camping!) taking that lake walk this morning was contagious. Everyone went walking by the lake in their own time, but Todd was the only one lucky enough to see any horned wildlife. Well, I guess Mom saw some too since she went with Dad. 😊
After walking and organizing, we headed towards Mountain Rushmore. A dear friend of mine, Joanie, told me once “It is like nothing you have ever seen. Indescribable.” She was not wrong!
As Todd maneuvered the camper van through the S curves and beautiful mountains, there it was. The feeling brought me back to that same excitement when I was a kid screaming, “I see the Eiffel Tower!!!” as we neared King’s Island. But this…WOW! To see one and only completed, hand carved, rock sculpture of the faces of four of the most influential presidents U.S. history is truly unbelievable. Seeing it in books and pictures just doesn’t do it justice. Even Lily stopped to look!!! I asked Mom if she ever thought she would see it in person…her response was nothing short of what anyone reading this would expect, “No, I did not.” I am so thankful that she was able to see what some might call the 8th Wonder of the World. (I don’t know if anyone actually calls it that except the guy I heard say it while we were there, but it sounded feasible to me!)
After our visit to Mount Rushmore, we made our way to Deadwood, SD, where Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane are laid to rest. After watching, the HBO series of the same name a few years back, I couldn’t wait to visit the famous western gold mining town. I have to say, I was highly disappointed in the town as it was not the original or even the close reproduction that I had expected, but much more commercialized with casinos and souvenir shops being nearly every establishment on Main Street. We didn’t let that ruin our fun! Todd’s hopes were deflated when he discovered the brothel had been shut down by the FBI over 40 years ago. Just kidding….he had no idea…didn’t even know the sign was there when I took his picture!! 😂
While Calamity Jane always raised a ruckus, I knew Dad would give her a run for her money. A local bartender recommended the Oyster Bay restaurant for the best pizza in town, so off we went. Like everywhere else, they had slot machines. What we learned is that not only Dad, but Mom, had missed their calling….millwright and customer service worker, pfft! They should have moved west and became gamblers! We gave them each $2 and Todd showed them how the penny slot worked. Mom won $9.64 and Dad won $7.35! They nearly won enough to pay for their lunch AND were smart enough to cash out and be done!
After making a brief stop at the Bar where Wild Bill Hickok was shot while holding a hand of Aces and Eights, we decided to head out of town after making one last stop at Mt. Moriah cemetery where Bill, Jane and the town’s first sheriff, Seth Bullock, were buried. I mean, we were there, right? Why not?
On the road again, Wyoming brings a different kind of terrain….many meadows of antelope, but coolest of all was seeing Devil’s Tower in the distance as we made our way to our campground in Moorcroft. I guess I have been doing this way too long both Mom and Todd just asked if I had posted. Until tomorrow family and friends! ❤️

(Saw this on social media (posted 11 hours ago) and decided to share it. I do not know the Hupp family but my heart goes out to them. There are times I feel as if the Lord allows me to see posts like this in order for me to share it with others.)
Our thoughts and prayers are with First Dakota Ag Banker Trevor Hupp and his wife, Kelsey. An explosion destroyed their home outside Fort Pierre yesterday morning, causing serious injury and loss of life to members of their family. A fund has been established in Trevor and Kelsey Hupp's name. Donations can be made at any First Dakota location.
Please join us in supporting the Hupp family in their time of grief. Food, clothing, and other items can be dropped off at: Maier Meats-The Hangout 102 Deadwood St Fort Pierre, SD 57532

OMG I love this one. I just re-read it a short time ago. I've always had a fascination with the paranormal, and I really loved the concept of Poe investigating a haunted house with Rey as the ghost. But... how to give them a happy ending? So, I turned it into a curse rather than an actual ghost story.
BTW, the house in my moodboard is the Adams House in Deadwood, SD. Our local paranormal group offers 'ghost hunts' there every October, and my brother and I went one year. So fun, and so much history. I want to do it again!

May 2023 Black Hills Trip
So I took a trip out to the Black Hills of western South Dakota and eastern Wyoming to play dorky tourist. Since I have way more than the ten pictures tumblr limits you for a photo post, I'm going to make a text post (plus also I wanted to talk about some of them.)
Warning: this is gonna be kinda long lol.
First stop, the Corn Palace in Mitchell, SD:
Tumblr media
Then Wall Drug in Wall, SD:
Tumblr media
The next day we went over to Wyoming. I've been working on my own original story since I was a teenager and it takes place in Wyoming. When we were out there we happened to be quite close to the town I wanted to base my story off of. The town is a little one called Sundance. I took so many random pictures for references and to get a general feel for it. I also think the town of Deadwood would make a good base too, so I will probably merge some elements of both places together to make what I was going for. Most of the pictures weren't all that impressive, but here are some of the best ones from there:

Since it was close by, we went over to Devils Tower as well. The funniest thing there was a conversation I overheard between a little boy and his dad. The kid was asking why there was so much stuff with aliens, and the dad replied, in the most Wyoming accent: "Because they're fixin' to take you."
Tumblr media
Next we took our sweet time getting our butts over to see Mount Rushmore and stopped to stare at the scenery along the way:

The next day we did less touristy things and took the scenic route through Spearfish Canyon. This was in the morning and it had rained the night before and it was gorgeous:

We also went up to Flag Mountain Camp, a summer camp that my brother works at. He has an adorable new puppy too:

Then we went through Custer State Park and got to see a bunch of animals. I got good pictures of a burro and a coyote, but we also saw a snake, bison, deer, and pronghorn antelope:

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
woe, characters be upon ye
massive thanks to @juiceofthebox44 for the most amazing commission art ever!! it was a wonderful experience. go check out its pinned post and throw money at her
image transcriptions below the cut!
Image 1:
Mary Anne “Annie” Ogden she/her Born May 7, 1842, Chattanooga, TN Died Sept 4, 1876 (34) Deadwood, SD Cause of death: Hanging Life occupation: Nurse Museum occupation: Sharpshooter mini Gender: Woman/Sexuality: Pansexual Kill count: 7 Good memory: Splitting her first bullseye out on the firing range with her father Bad memory: Skipping town in the dead of night to escape an arranged marriage Favorite food: Chicken soup Least favorite food: Raw carrots Curse of choice: Shit Annie Ogden is a cheerful woman with a disposition as fiery as her hair and a past as speckled as her freckled cheeks. She’s clever, self-assured, and stubborn as they come; rumor has it she once beat a trophy head in a staring contest. She firmly believes that a rule is only worth following as long as it helps somebody. Her experience with first aid has made her indispensable to the clumsier residents of the West, and years of experience has honed her instincts to a razor edge - if a bar fight breaks out, she’ll be the first to know, and you had better hope she’s on your side when she does. The speed and accuracy of her mind is only rivaled by her weapon: a Whitworth long range rifle, taken from the corpse of a Confederate sniper. 
Image 2:
Jane Lee Leung she/her Born February 10, 1862, San Francisco, CA Died January 22, 1900 (37) Sacramento, CA Cause of death: Plague Life occupation: Laundress Museum occupation: Barkeep mini Gender: Butch/Sexuality: Lesbian Kill count: 0 Good memory: Listening to the railroad workers tell stories around the fire at night Bad memory: Narrowly surviving a building collapse in an earthquake Favorite food: Homemade potstickers Least favorite food: Shrimp Curse of choice: Fuck Jane Leung is an even-keeled butch who serves up dry cocktails and an even drier wit. Born to a Chinese rail worker father, she doesn't mind living in the Western diorama; the clamor and chaos reminds her of home. Besides, it takes a lot more than rowdy cowboys to scare her.  Her take-no-shit attitude might make her seem aloof, but she's the most loyal friend you could ever hope for - she's always ready with a listening ear and solid advice. She spends her days slinging bottom-shelf liquor and keeping her finger on the pulse of the town gossip. There are some benefits to running the only saloon.
Image 3:
Born December 1, 1849, Nauvoo, IL Died August 6, 1878 (28) Utah Territory  Cause of death: Sunstroke Life occupation: Cattle hand Museum occupation: Cowboy mini Gender: Nonbinary man/Sexuality: Bisexual Kill count: 0 Good memory: Watching the stars on a clear summer night, surrounded by fireflies Bad memory: Running away from home at 16  Favorite food: Pork and beans Least favorite food: Beef liver  Curse of choice: Damn Luke Maitland is a laid-back redhead who loves kids, the outdoors, and adventures, though he really doesn’t get along with the sun. You can usually find him hanging around the bar, losing at cards and being terrible at darts. Though luck is hardly ever on his side, he never lets that stop him from trying, and he always keeps a sunny disposition even when things are at their darkest. He would hardly call himself an angel, though; he can hold his own against the Romans, and he definitely holds his fair share of grudges against them. He’s a gentle soul, though. He loves his partner, Micah, more than anything – except their kids, Maria and Max, of course. 
Image 4:
Micah Rios Hernandez he/him Born July 8, 1857, San Antonio, TX Died October 12, 1886 (29) southern Texas Cause of death: Mine collapse Life occupation: Coal miner Museum occupation: Cowboy mini Gender: Nonbinary man/Sexuality: Gay Kill count: 0 Good memory: Learning to swim in the lake near his childhood home Bad memory: Nearly drowning in the lake near his childhood home Favorite food: Oranges Least favorite food: Eggs Curse of choice: Shit Micah Rios is a longsuffering Tejano man with two bad habits: smoking and falling in love far too easily. He’s borne witness to a lot of strange things in his life, so nothing really phases him anymore – not even living in a history museum a century and a quarter in the future. He’s often serious and quiet, though he’ll always volunteer to help if someone needs it. He just prefers to stay in the background. When it comes to fighting the Romans, though, it’s good to remember that it’s always the quiet ones you have to look out for. When he isn’t kicking Roman ass, he prefers to spend his time hanging out in Leung’s Bar with Luke, his partner, and their kids, Max and Maria. 
Image 5:
The Twins aka The Seedlings aka Maria Jane Ogden Rios Maitland she/her and Maximiliano Isaiah Ogden Rios Maitland he/him Maria and Max Rios Maitland are twins who are joined at the hip in every way but literal. Maria is bouncy, outspoken, and passionate about her friends, while her brother is softer, shyer, and highly opinionated about what’s right and wrong. Like all siblings, they have their ups and downs, but they always resolve it in the end; the fact that they share a bed probably helps. When they aren’t in school or out playing with their friends, they can be found drawing on any available surface. They’re proof that a family doesn’t have to be conventional - sometimes, a family is a little boy, a little girl, their two gay dads, and the lesbians whose bar they all live on top of.

𝐁𝐈𝐎𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐏𝐇𝐘.
july 21st, 1999
there is very little known about your first few years -- at least to you. born in deadwood, you were abandoned outside of the local fire station at the age of two before being thrust into the foster system. those around you always told you that you were sweeter than spun sugar, gentle as a lamb. but the world was anything but gentle with you. your first family clearly only took you in for the checks -- moving you to the second within a handful of months before you were finally taken from the outskirts of deadwood and returned to back to town, where you would eventually meet and be adopted by the rhodes family at the age of ten. they went from a family of four, to a family of five. you, your mother and father, and your two older brothers.
while most considered you easy to get along with -- that was a select group, the ones you opened yourself up to. you always found it easier to bury your head in a book, make fantasy friends instead of real ones. you could visualize them in your mind anyway. you always preferred to play alone, make your own games with your own rules. and while your teachers worried about you, worried about your isolation, you made a handful of friends. but, most importantly, you were happy.
you were not only happy, but for the first time -- you were loved. you were surrounded by people who believed you mattered, when the first few years of your life, you were completely expendable.
february 2015
your older brother, quinn, was always one of the most important people in your life. he was the first to make you feel at home -- accepted by the rest of the family. he is your safe person, the one you went to when you needed help with your homework, when you needed to understand a boy you liked. when he moved out, you cried. when he got married to his high school sweetheart when he was twenty and you were sixteen, you were the only woman amongst the groomsmen.
but of course, when you are born in tragedy, things can't be perfect forever. along with two other groomsmen, you and quinn were hit by a drunk driver. while you and the groomsmen made it out alive, quinn died from his injuries. his partner had become a wife and then a widow all in the same day.
unfortunately, your family never quite recovers. your mother isolates herself -- speaking very few words to even you, while your father is easy to anger. neither of them seem to notice your grief. you spend the rest of your high school years keeping your head down, eventually making valedictorian. while your mother shows some excitement for you, your father barely bats an eye.
august 2017
you're off to college.. specifically to a state school, a decision that sparked many a question. while you had a couple of ivy acceptances under your belt, you denied them all to be closer to your family. and while you had initially wanted to be a writer, make people feel things through the power of the written word -- you can hear a voice in your head that belongs to no one else but your own. be realistic. the power of fantasy had always brought you comfort, would it possibly make you a living? thus, you kept part of what drove you to writing: helping people, and make it your mission to offer people some amount of closure through joining the criminal justice system.
present day
once again, you graduate from college at the top of your class -- joining the deadwood police department's forensic team within a matter of months and becoming one of their youngest techs on record. you stopped relying on your broken family for financial support about a year ago, and have begun to create a space that is entirely your own. you are a frequent visitor at the bookstore, always entering with a smile. that is one of the first things people notice about you -- you lead with kindness. there is never a moment where you've believed that kindness will never not be the answer.
it's true what they say about adulthood -- that while you may not know everything about who you are, you begin to find yourself eventually. and while people from high school question what made you stay, when you could have made something of yourself in a big city -- you are content with your little life. it's easy, but hard work. however, whispers of the phantom's return are certainly about to make things a whole lot harder. you thought you'd never know if the legend was a reality -- considering it was several years before your time. and yet, it doesn't seem that you or anyone else in deadwood will have a choice.
𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐎𝐍𝐒.
the kind of person who is perfectly happy blending into the crowd. eve feels no need to stand out -- and it shows in her wardrobe. when she isn't in her tech jacket, she often opts for neutral colors, more specifically creams and whites. denim is perhaps the most color people will usually see on her.
shy as can be, but once you cut through her exterior, you have a friend for life. just be patient with her. when she loves, she loves hard and will be there for you through thick and thin.
lives by a routine. go to work, go to the bookstore sometimes, go home.
MORE TO COME.

Two, Two, Two Caps in One

Earlier, I wanted to post an image of these mushrooms that I saw on our morning walk yesterday or maybe the day before, but I was having trouble with my SD to USB adapter :-(. New SD adapters are on the way.
The mushrooms were growing on an old dead tree in the forest, and I think that they look cool or at least interesting. All I can find with my current tools is that they are "Pluteaceae mushrooms" a family of fungi that live off of deadwood.
My gallery contains more that 700 images that I've chosen to share. Most are there for their visual appeal but there are a few novelty images. You can check out my gallery at:
