An internet friend from Nevada, who has been working over in this neck of the woods, stopped in yesterday morning. I put him to work. Made him ride a good horse and help me move some cows, bring in a bummed calf and rope and doctor a yearling heifer. We had fun. Fed him aContinue reading “Visitors”
Odds and ends

Gonna warm up a little
Supposed to get up in the 90’s today. Not much breeze today, but they are calling for the wind to blow tomorrow. Cindy and I drove down to a Memorial service for the father of a friend, in Wall last night. Cindy hadn’t been there in awhile so she got to see some of herContinue reading “Gonna warm up a little”

We looked at a bunch of their pictures on the computer, which they had not gotten to see other than on the small screenContinue reading “Friends”
A fun read
if you are involved with mountain lions, elk hunting deer hunting, or running cattle on private or public land. I’d like your thoughts on this one Corky. 50’s!!! It gets better the further you go. Might want to just check out my comments to and from Jim, for a quicker read.
