New Country
I went with Vernon this afternoon to prepare for moving our cattle on Thursday. Since the Mesa Pasture burned up in our fire, we had to go looking for extra grass… and we found it! I haven’t been up there until today. We put some salt out to help the cows settle in… they LOVE…

Breaks My Heart
I took a drive through the neighbor’s pasture, helping him out a tiny bit. Remember our “little” 4,000 acre fire?

Minute Movie – Trailing from Ritchie’s Pasture
From a few days ago… a Minute Movie showing the cows trailing in from the Ritchie Pasture. I love doing this… The cows know where to go. The cows are nicely paired. All I have to do is gather them in Ritchie’s, push them around the field, (OK, I did have a little problem at…
Bull Pasture Gather
OH, MY! Somehow I thought today was going to be a short day… So how come supper was at 8:30? I’m falling asleep at the keyboard, so tonight, just one photo… Gathering out of the Bull Pasture… yes, we had to put cows in here for a bit, to make up for some burned grass……
