Here’s some pictures. Lots of wind, but I sure seen worse days in November, so I ain’t gonna complain. But my elbow is sore from trying to swing a loop in the wind!

Cool fall weather
About 35 degrees when I finally decided it had warmed up enough to go to work this morning. But the south wind is picking up. Horses were close so I opened the gate and shook a bucket and captured Mijo and Pilgrim. I saddled Mijo and then let him stand to warm his back whileContinue reading “Cool fall weather”
Town run
Cindy and I hauled a critter up to Newell to the butcher, for Chances crew, yesterday. We then headed to Sturgis, dropped the trailer off and did some odds and ends shopping. Cindy needed some work clothes and shoes and I needed to get my one hearing aid adjusted. We had to run back toContinue reading “Town run”
The great hunt
Had fun. Did not shoot one bird. I decided I needed heavier loads and better aim. But still had a lot of fun. Met quite a few new people and really enjoyed my traveling partner. I met him at Enning and we visited all the way down and back. We both tend towards ADHD soContinue reading “The great hunt”

That crop being calves, mostly, in this country, tho’ some raise yearlings, but by and large, most raise cows who have calves, who get sold in the fall, barringContinue reading “Shippin’”
What we been doing
Yesterday the urchins insisted we drive the team so we went down south and picked up the empty lick and mineral barrels and some posts. Then this morning we went over to Bud’s and worked Buck on some sheep. He liked them! 😉 When we got home I hung a gate I had patched up,Continue reading “What we been doing”
This the good stuff!
Just got this in an email from a friend, evidently in response to my posts of the grandkids AKA: the miniature terrorists! I am trying to get him to start a blog and post more of this kind of stuff. He writes remarkable stuff, but has no idea how good it is. Please, if youContinue reading “This the good stuff!”
6:55 am update
46 degrees out at 6 this morning. Terrorists are still sleeping. Question, can you stop someones ability to reproduce, retroactively? 😉
