National Day of the Cowboy
That would be today. Many will celebrate by going to a rodeo or roping, to either watch or participate. Many who do the work of the cowboy will be at work, a horse back or maybe on a machine making hay to feed the cattle and horses. What are you going to do to celabrate?Continue reading “National Day of the Cowboy”
Go. Read. Laff!
Then think about it as it is all true! http://adaptivecurmudgeon.wordpress.com/2011/07/19/things-you-need-to-know-before-you-buy-the-farm/
Munchkins
We went out and worked on the dump rake. I think we have it working this time. I never was too mechanical. As Marty is always saying to me, “Son! Get away from that wheelbarrow, you don’t nothing about machinery!” 😉 We all got hot so came in the house to cool down. Later weContinue reading “Munchkins”
Some stuff
Had an insurance adjuster come this morning to look at the roof and see if they would help any with the leaking problem. Looks like I am going to have to build a small slanted roof on top of this one, where it is flat. Why in the hell they ever built them flat topsContinue reading “Some stuff”
More fun
I knew I needed to get back up the creek and doctor the bull that me and Woody had lessons with, so I thought of my friend Rick, who’s birthday is today and is always telling me to let him know when I’ve got any roping to do as he is like me and enjoysContinue reading “More fun”
Lessons learned
I am posting this for my future reference, or perhaps my children, grand children or anyone else who gets into these situations. I saddled up Woody, my older, cow eating, raging bay, wild man of a war horse. We’ve went to lots of battles and always won, but we have gotten a few scars whileContinue reading “Lessons learned”
Cancer Benefit
Got home almost midnight last night. Had a good time riding and making poetry and music up in the Hills and we raised some much needed money for people fighting Cancer. Got to work with some old friends and enjoy their stuff. They all did great. Crowd seemed to enjoy it and they fed usContinue reading “Cancer Benefit”
Warmish
Not real hot but real muggy. Rode Mijo up to the heifers and chased and roped a single(finally, the grass is so tall it’s hard to pick up feet on a running critter. Hell it’s hard for me to catch them when they are standing still, in good conditions! 😉 ) and doctored her forContinue reading “Warmish”
This and that
Went up and re-fixed a creek crossing that I had fixed once this spring, that washed out again. I am not complaining. I’d rather fight mud than dust! This morning early, Fr Tyler and Chance and I butchered a heifer that Chance’s boss is buying for the crew. We just gutted her and Chance hauledContinue reading “This and that”
