Rode Beaver up the creek after Cindy got home to watch the boys. Found and doctored the bad eyed heifer but did not find the little black bull. Hmmm….

Raking
The rake works much better now, tho’ there is still an adjustment out of whack and I have to start the trip by pulling on a chain and then allowing it to trip. Wish there was some old timer around here to show me how to adjust it. Still worked good and much better thanContinue reading “Raking”
What got done today
Laramie came and we shod the navicular horse, according to Burgee and my friend Corky. Hopefully it will work. Worked on the rake and am putting a 5 wheel type axle on the front of it. Judy brought cookies for the ordination of the Bishop on Thursday and left them and had a nice visitContinue reading “What got done today”
Little black bull.
He may have won the battle, but he lost the war. I went over to the neighbors after Gramma got home to watch the urchins and the neighbor joined me on his horse. I pushed, he played wing man and we got smarty pants, little bull pushed out the gate and across the road. HeContinue reading “Little black bull.”
National Day of the Cowboy
That would be today. Many will celebrate by going to a rodeo or roping, to either watch or participate. Many who do the work of the cowboy will be at work, a horse back or maybe on a machine making hay to feed the cattle and horses. What are you going to do to celabrate?Continue reading “National Day of the Cowboy”
Munchkins
We went out and worked on the dump rake. I think we have it working this time. I never was too mechanical. As Marty is always saying to me, “Son! Get away from that wheelbarrow, you don’t nothing about machinery!” 😉 We all got hot so came in the house to cool down. Later weContinue reading “Munchkins”
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”
Cancer Benefit
Got home almost midnight last night. Had a good time riding and making poetry and music up in the Hills and we raised some much needed money for people fighting Cancer. Got to work with some old friends and enjoy their stuff. They all did great. Crowd seemed to enjoy it and they fed usContinue reading “Cancer Benefit”
Warmish
Not real hot but real muggy. Rode Mijo up to the heifers and chased and roped a single(finally, the grass is so tall it’s hard to pick up feet on a running critter. Hell it’s hard for me to catch them when they are standing still, in good conditions! 😉 ) and doctored her forContinue reading “Warmish”
