Pretty and fast. these two will be able to run with Mom in just a few days. Their first instinct when I droveContinue reading “Look what I found”

Stuck!
I just walked in from up the creek, where I dropped the front of the tractor into a soft spot. Gonn’a have to let it set for a few days and see if I can get it out after it dries up a bit..
Flood!
I interrupt my seasonal branding photo’s for this update. We got rain! And more rain! We had 2.5 a couple days ago. I dumped .80 out this morning and then we got 3.3 this afternoon! Man, we got water running! I took my kayak and went down south and went floating. I attempted about aContinue reading “Flood!”
Another good branding!
Are you tired of these pictures yet? LOL By the way, I got to thinking that perhaps I should mention that most the time we have almost the same crew at every branding. Different families and groups sharing the work. We might have a different person or two one day, but many of the sameContinue reading “Another good branding!”
Branding again
The one was called off yesterday and we are going to try them today. Me and a couple guys made a rush trip over to Sheridan and back. 4 hours and 15 minutes one way, if you set up and drive hard and don’t stop to dawdle. The car tires had some mud in themContinue reading “Branding again”

No brandings today to go to. Got some pairs in for summer pasture. One more load to go. Built some fence in the yard so I can graze part of it with the horses. Got brandings the next two days. Here’s some photo’s from the branding on Tuesday morning. I’ll post some from the afternoonContinue reading “Day off”
Tired
Went to a branding at a neighbors yesterday morning and then right after lunch I took off to help my nephew and they guy he is working for, move some cattle up north of Belle Fourche. I’d never ridden in that country so it was fun. Spent the night then we branded two bunches atContinue reading “Tired”
Another one
Yup. Branding. Went well. chance went with me. When we got home we banded two yearling bulls. I took some pictures to show you how you can rope the hind feet, get close and tie off to the saddle horn so you can work on a critter and they can’t get away. Chance is settingContinue reading “Another one”
