Took the tractor and mower and went up west and cut some thistles…the horses was all almost in the corral so we ran them in when we got done and Sam had a go riding Beav in the corral. He’s a bit too short armed to do a very good job, but Beav was realContinue reading “Sam and I…”

Warmer but a nice breeze… Here’sContinue reading “This morning”
