I worked on a saddle today. Then this afternoon just after Cindy got home, Chance called and they were stranded in Spearfish. They had taken their pickup in to get the brakes on it fixed. Hope had lost all brakes and bumped into the gate awhile back and they finally were able to get itContinue reading “Help for the stranded”

Me and the boys
Moved the squeeze chute back into the corral and then dug all the oily gravel out of the shed and replaced it with clean new gravel. There was extra left so we dumped it into the holes in the yard so now we can have new holes! Sure wish I could flatten them out better,Continue reading “Me and the boys”
Organic
Cindy and I took the boys with us and went to town today to do some shopping and get groceries.

Another warm one…
Went out and decided to try and cut some more of the road ditch, as what the heck, it wouldn’t take much fuel and it would give me and the team some exercise. I decided I’d just cut a short distance where it was really green and a bit taller. Made one short round andContinue reading “Another warm one…”

Another gig
I dropped the two mean little kids of with Cindy yesterday when she got off work and I went up to Hay Creek camp for the Cancer Benefit ride. Some of us made music and did some poetry after everyone ate. They all bragged on us and seemed to enjoy it. Got to see friendsContinue reading “Another gig”
