Seems like spring

I took a big roll of smooth barbless wire and my plammers and walked up into the lane this morning and patched on all the broken wires behind the tree patch, where all the snow had drifted this winter. It was still stiff enough out that it wasn’t muddy yet. Most of the drift is gone except where the bottom wire is still down under it in a few spots so I just concentrated on scabbing it together for now. I will go back with the stretchers later and also a few posts that it needs. It will hold my cows now, if you don’t crowd them too hard. Then I got some horses caught and got Mijo in. He had lots of gas and moves. I finally got him to stop and let me catch him then saddled and worked him in the round corral. He seemed fine, but I decided to wait until I had someone here before I got on him. I need to put a shorter cinch on my saddle for him.  Dang little cuttin’ bred booger!

Supposed to catch a ride in to town and go with Cindy. She’s got an appointment and wanted me to ride along.  So  guess that will fill in the rest of my day. Sure is nice out there today!
