Ugh. I bet I’ve drank two gallons of water since I got home. It was a hot, dusty day. While we made good time gathering… It’s all the pairing that takes time. And the fact that neighbors kept driving by while we were waiting for calves to find their mommas. We do enjoy visiting with…

Work
You know you’ve been working as a family for days when kids’ photos start looking like this… Quinlan: Asleep on the hard, hot flatbed… Lorelei: Asleep on the four wheeler while trucks are being loaded.

Throwback Thursday: Craig Johnson – One Book Wyoming

Happy Independence Day
Lorelei is Ten Sleep Rodeo’s 2024 Princess. I captured her in a solemn moment while presenting the colors to the audience. I hope you enjoyed your Independence Day!

Blood Samples
Our heifers that were AI’d just over a month ago can now be pregnancy tested. How? A blood test that we send off to a lab. But how do we get blood from the heifers? Well, underneath their tail is a large vein… so, bright and early, we began taking blood samples. Just like with…
