Went out in Purple this morning and went around some fence. Found a corner post that needs replaced and several other little projects we are going to have to get done between branding’s and cattle work. We drove over to Punkin Center and got some salt and mineral and oil for the windmill we hadContinue reading “Me and the kid…”

Oh, man!
We trailed cattle today. Gabe done real good. Cool when we started and never got real warm, but the calves and cows got hot and tired and we rested them twice and had a hard push the last couple miles to the pasture. Had to travel along side a tarred hiway for about half theContinue reading “Oh, man!”

Had some come in just before dark last night. I read it started a few fires up around Chance and Hopes, but the rain put it out. All we got was the wind and some lightening, but I don’t think it started any fires. Mike and I rode out and moved some yearlings yesterday afternoon.Continue reading “Weather”

Hot!
Got up to 80 or there about, I guess. Not much wind, just a soft breeze. Cindy and I fed the cows, and hauled an old water tank in for her to plant stuff in. Then off to Punkin Center to get her lawn mower checked out for the season. Ate some lunch and thenContinue reading “Hot!”
What a gorgeous day!
About 60 and just a soft wind/breeze out of the south east. Brad brought the filly back this morning and he was on his way to an auction so brought a video he made of what he was doing with her. Cindy rode Beaver tonight and I rode the filly and we went up westContinue reading “What a gorgeous day!”
