This is my second attempt at making an insert that fits into a regular sized saddle so that little kids can ride bigger horses or even a pony if they don’t have a little saddle to fit them. Actually, my third as I made on similar to this for my kids, many years ago… IContinue reading “Saddle insert prototype”

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”
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…”
Me and the kid…
Went out in Purple this morning and went around some fence. Found a corner post that needs replaced and several other little projects we are going to have to get done between branding’s and cattle work. We drove over to Punkin Center and got some salt and mineral and oil for the windmill we hadContinue reading “Me and the kid…”
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…..

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”

Here’s a better picture of the saddle
Still arrrggghhhhhh!
Charged the battery on the camera, must not be it. Took more pictures. I see I cracked the screen on the camera, so i bet that is it. Tine for a new one. Might as well buy cheap ones I guess. Anyway, this is the best I can get for now on the saddle andContinue reading “Still arrrggghhhhhh!”
Aaaahhhhhgggg!
Got the saddle all oiled and put together but I am not happy. It came out much darker than I expected. I used different leather this time, good leather, but from a different tannery and it must have took on the oil much easier. Any way, that ain’t all of it, my camera won’t takeContinue reading “Aaaahhhhhgggg!”
