Here’s a little bigger cowboy on ol’ Liberty! Took Kid to town today and got his health and inspection papers all fixed up. While we was in town, we looked at wood burning stoves. With the money I’ve spent on propane the past few years, I think I could have built a pretty nice house!Continue reading

Here’s a “cowboy” on a pretty “springy” horse! We got all the yearling steers shipped but one, that was overlooked. Found him this afternoon. I’ll have to haul him to the sale on Monday.
