On the way home we stopped over at Red Owl and put a flag on Great Grampa’s grave. HeContinue reading “Windy Tuesday”

Wet!
Got better than an inch as I write. Cool and a little wind. Went and fixed the rest of the perimeter fence down south this morning. And trimmed Bob. The scissors worked well. Only pinched him a couple times and once he found out it was fairly painless he laid there and took it well.Continue reading “Wet!”
Hearing aids
Cindy told me they had called and said the new one was in so I ran down to Rapid to get the it. She didn’t mention I was supposed to get an appointment! I figured the guy was always there during the week, so imagine my chagrin when the lady at the front desk toldContinue reading “Hearing aids”
Another branding
Cold and windy, but we got them done. Big crew. With 5 ropers there was always someone waiting to take a calf off the rope when you came out. Good dinner afterwards off course. Brad rode my Some More Lena filly and drug a few calves on here. He sure looks to have done aContinue reading “Another branding”

He’s had bloody diarrhea the past couple days so Cindy called an emergency vet in Rapid and they said to bring him in . They think he might have irritable bowel syndrome. They are putting some fluids inContinue reading “Mothers Day”

A nodding, bobbing headed, two rein colt cautiously clicks the chirping cricket in the silver mounted spade bit he’s learning to carry. He feels and listens for the clues as toContinue reading “Ahhh, springtime”

A good job well done
After dinner, Cindy went with me to help and we harnessed up Wren, the filly who will mate up with Ron. Got her and the team all harnessed and hooked her alongside Roz, as that is the side she will work on. Drove them around the 40×40 shed (well I drove the team, theyContinue reading “A good job well done”
