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…….”

The Lord works in mysterious ways
I was checking out the readings for Mass this morning, to see what to pick for music to go along and this is the first reading. It made me think of all the flooding going on up here and the drought in the south. Dt 8:2-3, 14b-16a Moses said to the people: “Remember how forContinue reading “The Lord works in mysterious ways”
Whew!
Another day shot to hell! 😉 As to the picture, we had some close guesses, but not exactly right on the button. When you are in the back and driving a herd of cows and calves, you expect a few extra calves in the back, as most cows are smart enough to take their babiesContinue reading “Whew!”
Yeeeeehawwwwww
Got my new bit and hangers in today and a day ago. They came from two different places. Norm Harris out in Idaho got the bit for me and Larry Fuegen down in Arizona made the sliding bit hangers for me. Larry was raised in SD, down by Reliance. Good feller and makes some greatContinue reading “Yeeeeehawwwwww”
Fathers day
So far I spent it going to Mass and with Gus as he came home with me last night from the branding. Gramma will be home later and seeing as she is the one who made me a Dad, I guess we will spend Fathers Day together. Might go drown a worm later or something.Continue reading “Fathers day”
At last!
We went to Rapid yesterday and got the sink for the new kitchen work and the plumbing parts for it and also to fix the one we are using now. The kitchen sink and washing machine drained into the old dry well/septic tank that hasn’t worked in years. Everything else is plumbed into a newerContinue reading “At last!”
Rain and thunder
We got some yesterday evening. Afterwords it showed about a half an inch in the bucket on the step. Then last night about bed time it set in again. This morning there is 2 and a half inches in the bucket, by the ruler. Wish we could share this with them folks in the southContinue reading “Rain and thunder”
Kids
and grandkids. Tate and Kass came out last night, so me and Gabe and Lige went and fed Fred. Fred just wants to suck on peoples legs and arms, anywhere he thinks there might be some milk. Greedy, hungry little sucker! He doesn’t even buck when children set on his back! Just keeps backing up,Continue reading “Kids”
Cool and wet
Getting some rain this morning. Little wind with it. About 50 out. Took Colonel to the vet yesterday and got him gelded then drove down and did some banking at Philip. I need to work on getting all the stuff ready for branding on Sunday. Was invited to a branding up north of Chance andContinue reading “Cool and wet”
Photo’s of the branding
I didn’t get to take many while I was dragging calves. I roped off Mijo and drug calves, straight up in the bridle for the first time. He handled it well. Got pretty warm, but we had a stiff breeze to cool us off. Cows penned the best they ever have and the sorting wentContinue reading “Photo’s of the branding”
