On rare occasions, I get to play like a Real Photographer… except I don’t have fancy backdrops, or extra lighting, or unique props. All I do is take enough photos that luck helps me out… and I get a few good ones. Welcome, Lacee, you’re a joy to all your family! And, my…

Pay Day
Well, we loaded our steers on semis this morning and sent them on their way! Taking it slow and steady… no need to rush them, this is what we’ve been working for since they were born… the guys bring them to the corral. Here we will run them across the scales, weighing them in bunches…
I’m Sharing
I’d like to beg your forgiveness and brag for a bit. We’re a little puffed up here… we try NOT to be… but this happened the other night.
