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…”

Me and Sam
Drove Purple up west this morning after I made a new key to turn on the tank up there. We talked pirate and sailed the Purple Pearly and fought off several other pirate ships that tied to attack us. It was tuff, but we pirates are a tough bunch…. argggggg… This afternoon, Delbert brought hisContinue reading “Me and Sam”
Still warmish
Chance and Hope brought the grandkids out Saturday evening and left them while they went out with another couple for a birthday party. They spent the night -well, real early morning…. 😉 – and went back Sunday morning. Cindy and I drove down south the other evening to look at cattle and grass and foundContinue reading “Still warmish”
Done
James wanted a pair of chaps that were practical and had the look of the old timey chaps. These have buckle and strap enclosures, where the old time ones would have just been laced together and you would have stepped in and out of them like pants. I think they turned out pretty good…
Another warm one…
Went out and decided to try and cut some more of the road ditch, as what the heck, it wouldn’t take much fuel and it would give me and the team some exercise. I decided I’d just cut a short distance where it was really green and a bit taller. Made one short round andContinue reading “Another warm one…”

Another gig
I dropped the two mean little kids of with Cindy yesterday when she got off work and I went up to Hay Creek camp for the Cancer Benefit ride. Some of us made music and did some poetry after everyone ate. They all bragged on us and seemed to enjoy it. Got to see friendsContinue reading “Another gig”
Me and the mean little kids…
Got the heifers in and Kenny AI’d them… They rode with me to get them in and then rode around in the corral for most of the time while the heifers were getting bred. This evening we all got in Purple and drove out and looked at the cows. All the bulls were there, doingContinue reading “Me and the mean little kids…”
Running around…
We took of Saturday afternoon and drove to Valentine where we spent the night, with Tate and Kass and kids all in one room. We took everyone to the pool at the neighboring and jointly owned motel that we stayed in. We all had great fun, but seems I didn’t sleep so well on aContinue reading “Running around…”
