Hot and tired!

Tristin and I brought in the heifer bunch and sorted 13 head of sore footed ones off and ran them down the chute and gave them shots. I rode Woody and he is so punchy that I just wanted to kill him. And to think he used to be my favorite horse! I sure wish I would have trained on him better when he was younger.

And poor ol’ Tris got quite a little training on too! I guess I just need more patience!

One of my yearling guys and some friends were here yesterday. While looking at his yearlings we noticed several with sore eyes. Chance and I will go rope and doctor on them tomorrow.

Cindy and all the kids went to Pierre to see her mother today. Tyler and I drove Purple down and doctored on some of the sore eyes yesterday, with the crossbow and medidarts. Not a real good system, but better than nothing. I think the reason the yearlings have sore eyes is the tall grass. It’s maybe not too thick this year, but it is fairly high with lots of a type of cheat grass, that bothers cattles eyes and doesn’t really provide much feed value to them, except when it’s young and green. Oh well, at least they have something to eat this year.

Sorry Mad, no pony pix today.
