Putted around this morning. Ran all the horses in and rode down and looked at our cows. Then sorted off the team and drove down and put out some salt to the heifer bunch.

Still lots of green and them stinking hoppers tho’. Sunday morning Chance and I rode out and moved some yearlings and put aContinue reading “Summertime”

And that is what we celebrate. Not the birth of a nation, as we were a nation for some time before we declared independence from England.
