Take a look at the hard decisions that had to be made and the tragedies that brought us to Our Wyoming Life.

PO Box 667
Gillette WY 82717
Join us on our journey as we leave a life in corporate america to come back to Wyoming and help on the family ranch.
Our Wyoming Life features our Wyoming ranch and our ranch family. Giving you a look into the workings of ranching from raising cattle to raising and harvesting crops. Erin will join you weekly out of the garden, showing you how she helps provide for our family through growing produce and selling at local farmers markets, and Mike will take you along as he tends to the animals and land of ranch, from calving to fencing to planting and harvesting hay.
In older days, a man's handshake was a contract ! Stronger and more powerful than written by lawyers ! So, I bet you that this old lad heard what you told him, he liked it, he approved it and he signed it by squeezing your hand ! So, you got a life's condruct ! Hope you will be able of keeping loyal to it ! May God bless you and your family !
Yes sir
I watched this video twice...back to back. And both times, when you were talking about that last "conversation" with Gilbert...where you promised to not fail, to keep the ranch alive for the future generations, and Gilbert squeezing your hand....that segment brought me to tears. In that moment, you gave Gilbert peace of mind and heart. He knew that you would take care of the ranch, of the land, and more importantly...of his wife (Erin's mother). Gilbert heard you, and in your words to him, he knew that you would carry on his work, would maintain the ranch, grow it if possible, and that the woman he loved would be taken care of as well. He could not reply verbally, but that hand squeeze was all he needed to say. That was a man's way....an old school, hard as nails man's way....of sealing the deal, signing the contract. After that, Gilbert knew that all would be well with those things that filled his heart with purpose and passion...his ranch and his wife. It does not surprise me that just a couple hours after that "conversation" Gilbert departed this life. He was able to lay his burdens down.....because he knew that you had taken those burdens upon your shoulders and that you would not drop them, that you would do the work that needed done, and care for all that needed cared for. You gave Gilbert what he needed...assurance. Bless you for that, Mike.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and the family.
Mike, Erin this video is very touching. My house is only 2 miles from the family farm I managed and helped my grandfather on for 8yrs when he retired. I know my grandpa sits in his chair every day, shaking uncontrollably and losing his battle with Parkinson's and dementia. I thought it was my God destined task to be by his side, to keep his farm going. He loves my daughter, his great granddaughter. He talked with her about farming and animals, even though she was an infant. Unfortunately due to greed of my uncles I'm forced out. I find your story, your history with the ranch that a bit of a realistic fairytale. Your living many peoples dream, including mine. I'm am so grateful you share this journey with me and my family. My daughter loves your cows. Shes almost 3.
Have a happy Thanksgiving, Bill.
Greed of THE Uncle was our Problem. Mom went out pretty much empty handed ´cause she didn´t want Problems. Only got a fraction of the property value from her brother.
I have a similar uncle story on the farm/ranch where I grew up. My great-grandfather cleared timber and drained the swamp to make it productive property. He was a carpenter, a blacksmith, a gill-netter and farmer. He build houses, a huge barn and several outbuildings on the property. Grandpa inherited it, then my dad, but his brother's forced him to sell. My dad passed away a few years later, and sadly, I don't see any of my aunts,uncles or cousins anymore. Tragic.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and family Bill. and thanks for talking to me
Parkinson's is challenge. All hope you have a fine Thanksgiving.
it sure is a challenge. my wife has had Parkinson for a few years now. the battle is so frustrating for her but she seems to manage with the meds and help from the docs. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours
This episode touched me deeply being the son of a fireman, a Veteran and someone who believes to the bottom of heart a mans word is sacred, I respect what you did by telling Gilbert you wouldn’t fail. Well sir thanks for sharing your life style. I’ll say it every time I wish I could spend time on the ranch.
Gilbert would be proud of the progress you have made. What a great opportunity most people would dream to be a part of. Gilbert couldn't ask for a better family member to keep the ranch moving and passing it on to future generations.
you speak English beautifully and DJ job explains why you are such a good speaker( I hate the way people use incorrect English drives me nuts, so its very refreshing I really like your channel )
Very powerful. One never knows where life will take you.
You are living the best life possible. Thank you
Damn you Mike, I'm 66 & have been through a lot of BS in my life that I felt had tempered me into the person I am. But when you related your promise to Gilbert to us, it was like being poleaxed with a pick handle. I'm not going to get into a lot of details here, or get weepy & teary eyed (again), but I just want (hopefully some day soon) to shake your hand.
Many are called, but few are chosen. Seems to me, y'all have been chosen. Y'all hang in there, and run it into the ground. You'll end up next to Gilbert, body and soul. God bless you all and happy Thanksgiving!
I grew up right outside DC, my wife in Wisconsin. We recently moved back to Wisconsin with our 2 boys and bought a 40 acre farm. While we both have full time jobs, we still plan on raising animals for sale. All for a better, worthwhile quality of life. Thanks for the continued inspiration.
WOW !! I really appreciate what a fine loyal person you and your wife are. Living in the east (NJ) you forget that there are REAL hardworking people out there who still have family values and live by a code of honor, sacrifice, and honesty. I truly admire the fact that you live WITH the land and not just on it. God Bless the Cowboy !!!
Wow Mike! Thanks! It's funny how God works in mysterious ways. I thoroughly enjoyed that story. Gilbert! (May his soul rest in peace!) Saw something in you, and All of us can now see what it is, "You're Special! And with Divine Privilege!" You certainly are the man God put in charge. He's given you something you now love to do, and what's even better is that you have your family around you all the time. Many would envy that, I'm sure.This new series is simply fascinating! Happy Thanksgiving! We can't wait to hear the rest of the story! God Bless You, Erin, and the kids!
Good morning Mike and Erin.
I am looking forward to the series, continuing to follow the Ranch life. Many blessings to ya
Mike, I am 100 percent certain Gilbert is looking down on the ranch and is very very proud and grateful for what you and Erin have done and continue to do. And Erin we love your beautiful face with or without makeup 💄. Take care
I'm sure Gilbert is looking down with such happy, teared eyes, on what your family has done, to better the life of his, and your loved ones, living on the ranch! God Bless you, Erin, and the family! Please continue to share the ideas and tribulations of the effort that makes life better for the family, and the community, in your journey to explore what life is really about! Our entire Country would benefit from from the awesome videos, showing what it takes to make dreams a reality! Thanks again from your neighbors a thousand miles away! (P.S. God Bless Gary!)
Mike, i live in a city of over 2 million people, but your videos remind me of going to my uncle's farm. This is very touching. You're teaching your kids not only hard work, but the value of family, keeping your word , and commitment. Thank you.
What a beautiful story. Gilbert was a fine judge of character. Damn...got something in my eye.
its just a bit of dust. :) Thanks Karl - Mike
I think the sincerity in your videos is what draws folks in. It's not someone looking for likes or their 15 min of fame. Just a genuine love for what you do, good times and bad. Keep up the good work!!
Thank you Zach!! - Mike
This made me cry! Gilbert was a smart man, from the sounds of it.
I hope my husband and I can grow to homesteading for our future family.
I know it isn't an easy life but I can't think of something more rewarding. ❤
Mike, you and Erin are remarkable humans. I could not help but cry listening to this story and the love that given and shared by you guys. So rare, So precious. Giving of yourself unselfishly is priceless. God cannot be outgiven. And he has given to you and will continue to that, because of the choices in life that your making. I'm blessed for having heard this story. Thank you!
This video is what UA-cam should be about. In fact, it’s what our lives should be about: a story that is our lives; and telling that story well to others. Powerful video. Thank you!
Mike and Erin....they say that REAL men aren't supposed to cry.....I guess I haven't become a man yet....at 49....your story hits very close to home with me and my own family. All I'll say is continue running it into the ground. A life of hard work, is a life of rewards...not in just a financial standpoint, but in a life full of family memories. My friend you're passing great memories down to the next generation and I hope and believe they will also use this to continue to pass down your legacy. Kudos on a great video and glimpse into your daily lives and struggles. From my family to yours thoughts and prayers for even more blessings down the road. 😊
Thank you Mike and Erin for sharing more of your personal and family history. The power of your emotions and family connections comes through the video. I'm happy that things are mostly working out for you all in your Wyoming Life. The family farm/ranch, where I grew up, ended more tragically for my father a few years before he passed away. Again, thank you both, for letting many of us live vicariously through your ranch life.
1-Live each day with courage.
2-Take pride in your work.
3-Always finish what you start.
4-Know where to draw the line.
5-You make a promise keep it.
6-Do what has to be done.
7-Be tough but be fair.
8-Never be afraid to fail because when you're afraid to fail you'll never try.
9-When you fail don't look at it as failing I look at it as learning.
10-Breath in problems, exhale Solutions.
This has always been my code of life.
Touching story. Courage, integrity, promises, commitment and hope. I look forward to following you from our home in Miami. We all have a part to play in this country whatever our story or background. Blessings and peace.
Mike, I am so looking forward to your series about the history of the ranch. It is so unfortunate for the nation that more folks don't have a love and commitment for the land and family that you folks do.GOD BLESS!
Man what a story. Hollywood can’t come close to this. I just wish I could be there to help you everyday with ranch life. What a story......
Mike and Erin, you two are quite something. Your hard work and dedication, to not only each other, but to your family and land is awe inspiring and wonderful. God bless your family and your ranch.
Gilbert knew what he was doing. He found the new caretakers of the ranch. He couldn't have chosen better. God bless
I have the same situation started by helping my dear Uncle, lost my business, made the same promise now, I’m running his property with cattle and horses
and grew to love everything . It’s my home now, and I’d be lost without it. But it’s hard work.
This video was wonderful and brought a lot of emotions to the surface.
I'm a Hurricane Katrina survivor. Portland Oregon was our dream. I have a raised garden bed. I've always had a garden. Just smaller now!
And. I still play trumpet around !ittle towns in Oregon & Washington. I'm a rock & roll
Grandma.
after I retired from my previous career in 2005...living in Atlanta, Georgia....I moved to Cheyenne and I would never live anywhere else. What an incredibly great state. I have been welcomed with open arms and this ol' Alabama boy, along with my Texas-born wife, would never live anywhere else. Toss in the incredible changes underway at FE Warren AFB and its an absolutely exciting time ! My wife and I thank ya'all so much for your hospitality.
This was a moving video for my wife and I. You folks know what is important in life. So glad you are able to tell this wonderful story!
Gilbert sounds like a heck of a mentor and father in law. You sure are right about life making some turns we don't expect. 4 years back we decided to leave California and my husbands tech job. He's a trucker now and I am at home starting our hobby farm. It's what we both needed. We stopped chasing the high paying jobs and started doing what fed our souls.
As someone in corporate myself, I dream of one day living as a rancher like you. Thank you for being so inspiring. Please keep on sharing your ranch life.
Run it into the ground Mike, run it into the ground... You're a good man Mike, you're a LOYAL man, Mike.
Today men of integrity are few and far between. Thank you for sharing this lesson in life for all of us to learn from.
I've been watching you for many months and subscribed several months back to get all the programs on time. Like a lot of commenters here my Wife and I are in a similar situation on our family ranch. It amazes me how many stories of the ranching life have much the same beginnings and you and your Wife are to be applauded for what you have done and providing us with the story here. I watch every week! An older family friend and neighbor who I admire and respect gave me the best advice/encouragement about the ranching (or any agricultural) life and that is "Survival is Success" You have to make enough this year to keep on doing it next year. It's not so much about the money as it is about the life. Anyway, ya'll have a great story and I enjoy being a part. It's just like you planned it this way. I'll leave you with a quip that the order buyer told me after buying my calves last year; "The fastest way to become a millionaire in the cow business is to start out with two million."
Mike and Erin, family to my wife and I is everything which means that we all need to preserve our family's history! My mother's father had his captains license and piloted everything from barges up and down the Ohio River to being a tug boat captain and docking large ships. My father's father was a full time farmer and also drove a county School bus for many years. All that being said they were my heros and great roll models. I'm sure your father in-law was a great roll models for you as well. As always keep up the good work Mike and Erin and family! You guys are awesome and we will continue to watch your videos!!
Thanks MIke, there was not sacrifice but evolution in your life. An honest rendition of humanity.
One really touching video. I can just say that I totally agree that life isn't always predicable. Sometimes the opportunities show up and then if you go for it you might have to give something else up. Being an adult has always been kind of a challenge I think. So much stuff to be responsible but it's an neverending story to learn from. I totally think that family goes first. Without love everything else seems pointless for me. I've always been into farming but both my parents and myself talked me out of it and studied to become an engineer. Boy that was such a wrong decision. I never got to feel at home in the office. Now at an age of almost 52 years old I regret not going for the first feeling I had. The only way I can even come close to farming is to watch youtubers like yourself and subscribe to magazines. I love farming and I look up to everyone that is taking on the challenge to make a living on a farm. Best wishes to you and your family that everything will work out in the end. Thanks for sharing a bit of your life.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful story. My brother and I have inherited 632 acres in Northern New Mexico very recently. We lived the small farm and ranch life growing up. I even had a small herd of my own that i purchased with a Government loan i got when I was still in High school. Long story short. Both my brother and I have been truck drivers for many years. He lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico and my family and I have been living in Goodyear Arizona for over 6 years now. Even though I make a great living along with my wife having a great job. We are now considering and talking about going back to make a go out of the Ranch again. Only God will lead us either to do it or not. Anyway thank you for your awesome videos and your wonderful story. God bless you and your family.
Mike love hearing your story. I live in NJ and actually have a few friends at the local country station. I enjoy getting involved in some of there charities. I serve my Community doing EMS for 24 years. After I left EMS me and my parents planned on moving closer to family. My mom grew up in foster care so she didn't get to know her brothers and sister. November 11, 2019 my dad passed away. I'm still hoping to move my mom closer to family.
20 years ago while still reeling from a breif summer stint in Cosmopolitan Mag I continued recieving cards an letters from people I didnt even know an hopeful's coming over the phone.However what really turns my crank is raising sheep an hearing stories like yours.Thanks for Hanging in there.God has Blessed your Family and Life.
What a wonderful story told by a awesome story teller. The world needs more of this.
Mike I just came across this video, I enjoyed watching this video.
Hearing about how you and your wife came about to be on the ranch.
I want to thank you for what you and your family is doing.
Putting food on tables for people.
And not only you but to all the ranchers and farmers that is out there.
Working on their ranch or farm.
I can honestly say that is not a easy life no matter how big or small the land is.
No matter how big or small the cattle heard is, again Mike thank you for all the videos you put out, and don't never think that Erin's dad is not watching you, I think he is proud for what you and your family has done to the ranch.
Hope you and your family have a awesome day and hope that this year and next year be awesome for you and your family.
Thanks for the great video Mike, my Grandmother rode her pony over the hill to Trinidad to become a nurse. Yes she was born in the 1800's and almost made it to the 2000's. Prop's to those who made homesteading work for them.
Why is this not a tv show I’ve watched like 6 of these videos today this channel is amazing.
Thank you very much, glad you found us, and thanks for watching - Mike
Loved this video. Both of my grandfathers and my uncle were farmers and cattle ranchers here in central Fl. I am a 70 year woman and have been raising sheep here for four years because I wanted some kind of livestock. We have a small homestead but have a chance to get a couple of Florida Cracker calves (aka pineywoods cattle) and I think I just might do it. They are native to Fl and now are one of the oldest and rarest breeds of cattle in the country. Docile and able to survive on even poor food they have managed to make it. You guys have a Wonderful Thanksgiving!
Awesome story. God bless you & your family, hope you have a happy Thanksgiving.
The good story to me is how Erin and you have transitioned your former career's to learn the ranch life.If ya'll hadn't done it the ranch would probably have been sold , so Gilbert's life continues through your hard work and perseverance. I know its not and easy but it is truly rewarding. It is remarkable that ya'll have used your prior radio careers to help tell your story and educate people who have no idea of ranching. Maybe Gilbert knew more then he let on. Take care and be proud.
What a great idea for a series. Nice to see not all history is forgotten. Thanks Mike
Wow, not a dry eye here, from me or my husband. Great video Mike! God Bless you and family. Gilbert knew of your strength when you took his daughters hand in marriage. Have a very Happy Thanksgiving! - From the Northeast Kingdom of VT
Well, I'm not sure Gilbert saw it right away. In fact I had the impression he didnt really like me, city slicker and all, but that changed :) - Mike
Our Wyoming Life - Mike, you have a wonderful family. My husbands name is also MIKE. He has had a difficult time adjusting to my excessive viewing of those that have the honor of living the “farm life”. The field of dentistry is my full-time job and milking cows is my part-time job. Last January, I would get home from working for hours out in -27 degrees with the herd, only to get cleaned up, eat dinner, and WATCH more videos about FARM LIFE. I just can’t get enough of it!!! - I watch those living/working the farm life both state side and over seas. So, thank you for allowing all of us viewers into your home.
Chapter after chapter I learn so much about ranching but more than everything, I discover how love for the family and for hard work can make almost impossible things, possible. May God keep on blessing you and your family.
Thanks Mike you have touch my old hart I at the end of life now and I live one day at a time. So I understand your life and your wife's to.
You keep going and keep your eyes open to new things for the ranch as the kids get older get them in to show cows and they learn and help them in.school to.
Mike you bring tears to my eyes I see your love of your wife. She my not be the best but your love for each other is the best. And you to are very lucky to have each other count on that to get you over the humps in life. God bless you each day and big hugs to the kids too.
Old cowboy Cliff
Cliff Anders I would love to meet you and shake your hand... Real values seem much rarer these days.
Mike you produce a great show and an awesome channel. I grew up a farm kid with a history all our own. Have a military history I'm proud of and satisfy my nature of yearning for the farm through your videos. I too have spent time in the corporate world and long to "escape the ordinary". I salute you sir and thank you for the hard work you share with us.
It’s amazing to see the work you do Mike, your wife as well. Very inspiring!
I don't envy many people. I envy your Wyoming life. I endeavor to love my work the way you love your ranch life. God bless you
Don't envy us Jason, just make your life what you want it to be :) Thanks for watching - Mike
First I would like to say I hope you and Erin have a wonderful and peaceful, Blessed Thanksgiving. Awesome, Awesome video. I am so excited and cannot wait till next month's video. I love the history of just about everything. It's sad like when we started our little ranch/farm in Kansas, seeing how people just didn't care about the old house's, a school's an old-time Barn's just letting them crumble and fall. I never understood why they couldn't keep the old barn's up and being used. They just don't build barn's like that anymore. My husband was born and raised in Independence, Kansas, I was born in a little town called Bremerton, Washington. Washington State is where I and my husband met. We bought a house in Bremerton and he got a job at the Naval Shipyard as a laborer. After about 7 year's my husband was subsequently injured and forced out on retirement, I have a very severe Hereditary Disease that has played harshly on me medically. His dream was to own over a 100 acres of land and have a ranch. The taxes in Bremerton, Washington were outrageous so he asked me how I felt about moving to Kansas, I looked at him like "are you kidding" of course he wasn't. I told him if he bought me a horse that I would move there. So, he found 60 acres on the internet and we purchased it sight unseen. It was 60 acres of nothing but waist-high weeds. With our son, we moved about 26oo miles with a 35ft motorhome that we had bought.
And we proceeded to build our little dream ranch, which we named R&R Ranch. my nickname is Rina and my husband's name is Ross, thus the R&R. Sorry this was so long and hope I did not bore you. I love you and Erin's channel, I look forward each week to your videos, keep them coming they are awesome.
rancherrina *Your story is absolutely beautiful!*
Mike and Erin, thank you for sharing your story. Well done to you both, your story is heartwarming and inspirational.
Awesome video Mike. Surely you and Erin have set your roots and they are growing deep. You'll have given your children a vision of what life is about. One in harmony with the earth and people around you and understand it's blessings. Many families hunger for this, but are unable on how to attain it. Mr. Gilbert had opened the door for your family and you truly greated a bond. He also saw that vision. God Bless.
What a great series this promises to be and what a great way to kick it off! I didn't know Gilbert, but I know Gilberts, and they are a special breed. I'm betting my last dollar that your Gilbert is feeling like a Thanksgiving prayer has been answered with y'all picking up right where he left off and carrying the torch for your kids! It's all about the land....always has been, always will be. That's why we all die a little for every acre that's paved over or has a high rise built on top of it. Carry on good people and Happy Thanksgiving! Run it into the ground!
One of the greatest thing you can say when someone ask why you did something is to say my family needed me. God bless you.
Looking forward to the rest of this series. Your doing a great job.
Hi MIke, you are living the life I had envisioned for myself. In my teens and 20s, I worked on a variety of farms. I can remember discussing with one of my bosses my desire to become a farmer. His response is still stuck in my head. He said, "If I didn't inherit this farm there is no way I would be a farmer. The initial cash outlay is well into the hundreds of thousands and the loans are huge. There are basically two ways to start farming today. You either inherit or marry into a farm family." Well, neither worked out for me. So, today I have a desk job. I do love my job. I also, love your videos.
Thanks to you and Erin for being genuine and emotionally honest.
Mike, your best yet - superb! Thanks
Good on you and thank you for the informative video very interesting and have a great Thanksgiving
Beautiful !!! Last year I had to jet down to GA from NY. My ex-father-in-law was in the ICU and in bad shape. I promised him when the time comes. That my ex-mother in-law, ex-wife, our daughter, ex-wife's husband and their son would then become my responsibility. That will stand true forever. Thankfully he pulled through and is still with us today. The beginning of January 2018 my mom fell ill. For 7 weeks. I did everything in my power to keep her alive. Unfortunately a day after her 72nd birthday she relaid to me that she was ready to go to heaven. She passed February 14th 2018 peacefully as I held her hand while she took her last breath and I continued to hold her hand as her heart took it's last beat. I've cried more this year at the age of 50 then ever before. I'm crying now. This struck a deep cord and I'm a teary eyed snotty mess. You can't unsee what you witnessed. You can't unfeel your emotions. Talking and communication helps with the pain and sorrow but ultimately time heals. Rough year my friend. Rough year. Thank you for being you and sharing. " Your Wyoming Life " with me. God Bless !!!
Best life ever, following dad's steps for almost the same reason. Great video by the way
Thank you Sergio - Mike
Great story Mike looking forward to the next installment have a great and blessed thanksgiving week
One of your best, great job guys
So glad you guys started this series!
Mike and Erin, I found your channel when Josh came through during his Farmstock tour and have been watching every video you put out since. The part I love is how you two are raw and strive to show the highs and lows of living, running and raising a family on the ranch. This was one of the most touching stories I’ve seen and really solidifies why it is y’all do it. I can wait to see the other videos in the series as I’m a huge history buff too. Thanks for sharing your lives with us.
Thank you very much Jeffrey, and I am glad you found us. :) - Mike
Thanks for sharing!

Mike and Erin, an epic tale of commitment to family and a life style that few would adopt! This is as American as it gets, grit and gutt determination, thanks for sharing this with us all. I hope the kids will join in, in the near future.

so many emotions went through me with this video....can hardly wait till next month..thank you
Love your story,thank you for sharing.
Awesome video thanks for sharing. Looking forward to the series.
This is a very emotional video that speaks loudly about your character and Integrity as people but I’m happy to support you on your journey . I was raised on a small farm that put food on our dinner table and meat in the freezer which got our family through the winter months. I deeply appreciate your love and support of agriculture in teaching others the value of growing your own. Farming is hard work that never stops and an encouraging word is always wanted and needed. God bless you in all your efforts raising a family and keeping the ranch going. May the fruits of your labors be bountiful.
Thanks for sharing.
Perfect way to wake up thanks Mike and Erin. You guys have a wonderful story. Thank u for sharing .
