I’ll probably get back to some branding photos, or post some new since we’re trying to figure out when to squeeze another small branding in… but today, we moved some pairs from by my house to the home place. It was a chilly and blustery day that started with a skiff of snow on the…

#TBT: Cowboying is Complete, v.2.0
This was first posted April 23, 2012. We’re not quite there yet, we have a few more cows to get out and it’s definitely not 81* this year! My company left… and literally within minutes, Vernon handed off his horse to me, and I was back “on the job.” It was a tad hot to…

The steer calves get an extra ear tag… Mentors without (perhaps) realizing it… Hot irons are essential. Watchful mommas… While his dad applies the “A” part of the brand, his aunt helps with positioning and a reassuring hand on Quinlan’s shoulder. He could have used a few more rocks in his pockets! Since it was…

Branding Photos
Burton Construction was well represented! (My brother, sis-in-law, and nephew!)

Back to Branding
Well, sorry about the radio silence! I updated my version of WordPress which set off a mess of problems… oh, yay. However, since this has happened to me in the past, I didn’t panic, just knew I’d have to spend some time with GoDaddy to straighten things out. I tried using their automated bot to…

#TBT: The Titanic Event in Pictures, v.2.0

Everyone received their copy of a ticket to the RMS Titanic, randomly giving them the identity of a real passenger. Crossing the gangplank, they read their background and went to the…

Rare
I can’t remember the last time I saw one of these. I tried to find my post about it but I had no luck. The rare, spiked snow porcupine. It must be coming out of hibernation.

Could Have Been So Easy
It was hot! 71 degrees today, if you can believe that. It felt like the 90’s because of the radical change that we haven’t had a chance to acclimate. Of course, we had to move cows today… Our “CATTLE ON ROAD” sign went out and we began to urge the mommas and babies onto the…

Happy Easter
Happy Easter, everyone!

Impressive
While the snow we had just received is quickly disappearing, Vernon and Daniel decided to zip up the mountain to see what conditions were like. They snowmobiled clear up to our mountain corral. We’re used to seeing it this way. It looks a little different. While pitiful compared to the snow amounts in Utah and…
