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”
Munchkins
We went out and worked on the dump rake. I think we have it working this time. I never was too mechanical. As Marty is always saying to me, “Son! Get away from that wheelbarrow, you don’t nothing about machinery!” 😉 We all got hot so came in the house to cool down. Later weContinue reading “Munchkins”
Some stuff
Had an insurance adjuster come this morning to look at the roof and see if they would help any with the leaking problem. Looks like I am going to have to build a small slanted roof on top of this one, where it is flat. Why in the hell they ever built them flat topsContinue reading “Some stuff”
Warmish!
Especially under the crawl space in the house. Even more especially when you’ve gotten more plumbing stuff to fix things SOMEBODY screwed up and find that they are the wrong size as the people who hooked up the waterlines to the clothes washer switched over from 1/2 inch copper tubing to some kind of copperContinue reading “Warmish!”
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”
Gig
Drove down to Martin SD yesterday to entertain for their 100 year celebration. Ran on to some friends, Ken Cook and his lovely bride Nancy, Beck and Pat Keegen and children, Paul Williams and met his wife finally, and even saw Ken Moreland. Had a good set and got to meet some new people. TwoContinue reading “Gig”
Water trouble
Seems everybody is having it in one way or another. When I took the team and low boy wagon up to Harry’s old place to haul mineral to the girls up there, I saw the tank was overflowing so I just shut the power off. I ran back up there a few minutes ago andContinue reading “Water trouble”
