Got a little this morning. Not a lot, but it all helps. Cindy said it was drizzling and foggy when she left at 4:30. I kept Woody in so I gathered the horses from north of the barn and then rode around the cows. No new calve in the night. Fed some hay to theContinue reading “More rain”

Fun
Same old same old around here. Check cows, feed cows, fool around, wrench and make my knuckles bloody…. Went in to Sturgis Sunday after Mass as Cindy was having a party for her mom’s birthday. I shall not mention her age as that would not be gentlemanly. All the kids made it and Cindy’s brotherContinue reading “Fun”
Calving
Had a new one this morning and two new ones this evening. I putted around this morning, as the wind was blowing so hard I’d decided to wait and feed in the afternoon, as it was supposed to go down, as the afternoon progressed. Ordered some stuff fro leather work and then went to PunkinContinue reading “Calving”
Feeding
We are officially calving I guess. Got the first one this morning. By the way, Gabe, the 7 year old grandson, took most of these pictures.
A beautiful Easter day
Even if the wind did come up. but I’ve seen lots way worse than this. Had a nice crowd at Mass this morning. Had a good visit afterwards. When I got home I saddled up Woody, the old horse. Gonn’a be 21 or 22 and acts like a colt. He had spent the night inContinue reading “A beautiful Easter day”
And the wind blows…….
Still. When I went to catch horses, they had escaped and went nort5h with the others, but were close enough I conned them all into the corral for grain. Decided I might as well just let them all out at night except for one to gather on in the morning. Mijo gets to be wrangleContinue reading “And the wind blows…….”
You’d think it was still March…..
The way the wind is blowing. Coming from the south east so it should blow some rain in , in a day or so. Supposed to, but don’t look like a lot, but that is usually when we get our best rains, when they predict not a lot. Fed and then saddled up Pal andContinue reading “You’d think it was still March…..”
Another day in April
Here is is the 3rd already. Cindy had to do some stuff in town, so I got my chores done and fixed a little fence to lock the cows into another pasture from where they’ve been, showered and went with her. I did some things, amongst them being getting a new, cheap camera. No senseContinue reading “Another day in April”
Yup, still March!
First day of spring I think. Usually we get a storm this time of the year, but so far all it is is more wind and cooler temps. We ran into Rapid yesterday after I got chores done. I have been getting a little nauseous and headaches, which I hardly ever get, so I suspectedContinue reading “Yup, still March!”
Still March!
It was real nice this morning, hardly a breeze but it made up for it this afternoon and it is supposed to stay like this for the next day or so, looks like. I had unexpected visitors yesterday afternoon. Jan W and some of her new neighbor/friends stopped in for a bit and then PaulContinue reading “Still March!”
