Pretty warm and muggy out there. Got some rain last night. I went out and started working on replacing some old boards in the corral with poles. Went and picked up some old oak poles Dusty gave me years ago. they are in surprisingly good shape, for as long as they have lain around. HopeContinue reading “Whew!”

I’ll be darned
Found my little black bull. He was with the rest of the bulls! (insert emoticon of guy slapping forehead!) Evidently I miscounted when I sorted them. Not unusual, but usually the other way. After Gramma got home we drove to look and checked the bulls and found him so then drove over to the pairsContinue reading “I’ll be darned”
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.”

Kitchen Aid!
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!”
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”
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”
Lets see…….
What did I get done so far today? I caught Mijo and rode north and moved a few heifers. Took the dogs along and did a lot of hollering at Bob. Came back and the wind was not right to move the rest north so decided to wait until later. Drove over to Punkin CenterContinue reading “Lets see…….”
