Well….
We lost an old friend around here. Squirt, a little half horse. Chance found him dead in the corral this morning…. He wasn’t real pretty, or of great conformation, but he sure made a lot of little cowboys and cowgirls happy over the years…. He was born on this ranch, out of a little ShetlandContinue reading “Well….”

Cooler
With some wind. Needed my vest this morning. Didn’t by later morning. After I got the horses in I worked on the loading chute. Rebuilt the piece in front that wiggles back and forth so that if a truck is a little crooked it still hits right and doesn’t leave a gap for a critterContinue reading “Cooler”
