Tonight we ride! We saddled up after the moon came up and made a little peaser out west and north. Checked on a couple tanks and had a nice moonlight ride. Windy and warm, but a nice ride. Not many get to do that.

We went to war
Kelvin rode the Beav and I rode Woody. We took along the Aussie whip and after we found the heifer I let her know just what a whip could do. She seemed somewhat impressed but still had to test us. She was in a pasture about 2 miles long by a mile wide and weContinue reading “We went to war”
Hotter than Hades!
Got up over 100 today. Kelvin and I rode down south to the next door neighboring pasture and failed in our attempt to bring back a strayed heifer. Dumb little rip wouldn’t drive lead or drag worth a darn. Perhaps with the right application of some braided kangaroo hide tomorrow we will change her mindContinue reading “Hotter than Hades!”

Was up until midnight watching and responding to a small grass fire with Delbert and the Truck from Red Owl. They had it outContinue reading “Posting may slow down”
Must be the rosin weed….
Or Curlycup Gumweed if you prefer. Nasty little weed that even the grasshoppers won’t eat. Not sure what it’s good for, but it must be what is causing my allergies to kick in. Up last night and the night before, itching and scratching. Took some anti itching pills and eventually went back to sleep forContinue reading “Must be the rosin weed….”
