Before We Knew It
After a rain delay, we loaded the heifers and trucked them to the top of the mountain. After the heat of yesterday, the mountain was absolutely delightful! We mounted up… And, we’re off! The intensity of the green is amazing! Before we knew it, we were done. We tried to think up excuses to stay…
Next Vet?
So Quinlan decided to jump in and help Brandon out by learning how to take a blood sample from our heifers. This way, only a month later after AI, we can test for pregnancy. We will know if the AI worked before they get bred their next cycle from the bull. It will help us…
Heifer Time
An early morning gather with the entire crew minus Megan who is off at a wedding. Victoria and her three boys, Daniel and Tess with their three, Brandon with his two, Vernon and L. on their four wheelers and me in my Japanese mini truck. These are our heifers that we were AI-ing a month…
Peony Prize
Ack, I’m getting so far behind in keeping you current on happenings, but I can’t leave this entry out. I really enjoy making jelly and for a few years I’ve been wanting to try dandelion jelly and peony jelly. Well, I missed the dandelion season… but when Victoria was here last time and we had…

Recharge
It’s that time again… We trailed our first bunch to the Slope Pasture today. Four cowkids and three cowboys for most of the trip. The majority of the time we stop halfway at the Mesa Pasture, but not this time. It’s twice as far and then there’s mothering them up at the end… The cowkids…
Video Share
Today I’m sharing a couple of short videos I’ve made recently. One is the hailstorm that recently demolished my garden… The other video is about the event at the library yesterday. Lazy T Ranch brought in cowboy cook Kent Rollins for a book signing and block party. Approximately 300 fried bologna sandwiches were served. Red…
Big Day
From this… to this… And this… It’s been a Big Day.

I finished the video with Brandon AIing some of his herd.
