4th of July

Man how we used to look forward to this day when we were kids. Firecrackers, sparklers and Black Snakes and maybe even a few rockets of some kind to shoot off. We always wanted to start too early and usually had everything shot off before it got good and dark! Then as I got older,Continue reading “4th of July”

Early morning

Got up at 4 and tho’ morning is the best time of the day, it sure can come at an awkward time… especially if you are night owl as I am. But I did better than my young traveling companion who was in bed at 1 am and up at 4. He couldn’t hardly keepContinue reading “Early morning”

Warmish again…

Up in the high 90’s the last few days. Cooler coming tho’ , it looks like. I took Beaver and rode south and doctored on some yearlings. All that easy, nice, don’t run the livestock, while doctoring the other day? Waste of time it looks like as I think all the ones AI doctored todayContinue reading “Warmish again…”

Ahemmmm….

On occasion, I post things on here that express my viewpoint on different subjects. Marlon (see previous post’s comments) wishes I woulds stay way from “politics”. Well, I am here to inform you, that like it or not, politics is screwing with our lives each and every day. People do not go vote as theyContinue reading “Ahemmmm….”

This morning

Got the horses in, caught Beaver and rode down to doctor some sore footed yearlings. Roped 6 to doctor but screwed up and caught a couple more by accident as I was roping those, so had to get the ropes off them. No big deal, but took a bit. Warmer but a nice breeze… Here’sContinue reading “This morning”

Please…

Say a prayer or two and maybe go check out Jeffro’s latest blog thread. http://crazedpw.blogspot.com/ While off trucking (his job) his house burnt down with every thing he owns in it. Perhaps his cat, which is sad, as like he said, he didn’t deserve. Hopefully the cat got away, and poor ol’ Jeff is notContinue reading “Please…”

Warmish…and an Anniversary

Supposed to get up over 100 by afternoon. About 93 now with some wind. Been working in the house, pampering my shoulder. I had got some medicine last week, but it wasn’t quite strong enough to whip it so I took Cindy in to a dentist yesterday afternoon and got a refill. So I amContinue reading “Warmish…and an Anniversary”

Overcast and cool

and windy, this morning. I left Friday a little after noon and drove down by Martin and stayed over night with Ken and Nancy Cook. We got up Saturday and headed south of Lexington Neb for a family reunion, where Ken and I were the entertainment. We stopped in Valentine and picked up there daughterContinue reading “Overcast and cool”

Didn’t get ’em

Looked south and I had yearlings back where I’d moved them from. Went and looked at the fence and worked on some and couldn’t find where they went thru’ so I guess I just missed some. Hidin’ seek little boogers! Got the gates all set so I will go move them tomorrow and maybe fixContinue reading “Didn’t get ’em”

Got ’em….

Me and Beaver and Buck and Bob went and moved yearlings this morning. roped and doctored 3. Bob and Buck didn’t help much at that job but did stay the hell out of the way. and then they did help to get them back up after I was done. The way I rope, they areContinue reading “Got ’em….”
