I ran in to Rapid early this morning and got a whole bunch of odds and ends for the house. Got a new drive belt for the mowing machine as the other looks to be about broken in two. When I got back Tate had hung several cabinets and had the counter top we installedContinue reading “Kitchen Aid!”

House work!
Cabinets and counters came in yesterday afternoon. Tate rolled in later. We started on them this morning. Go part of the cabinets set and counter top set on and the sink put in, but somebody measured wrong! Must have been Cindy’s fault. 😉 We will have to make a few adjustments. Cindy brought us outContinue reading “House work!”
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”

Hell it’s hard for me to catch them when they are standing still, in good conditions! 😉 ) and doctored her forContinue reading “Warmish”

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”

Drove down to Martin SD yesterday to entertain for their 100 year celebration. Ran on to some friends, Ken Cook and his lovely bride Nancy, Beck and Pat Keegen and children, Paul Williams and met his wife finally, and even saw Ken Moreland. Had a good set and got to meet some new people. TwoContinue reading “Gig”
Water trouble
Seems everybody is having it in one way or another. When I took the team and low boy wagon up to Harry’s old place to haul mineral to the girls up there, I saw the tank was overflowing so I just shut the power off. I ran back up there a few minutes ago andContinue reading “Water trouble”
