This summer may become known as The Summer We Moved Cows Constantly. This morning we moved some down with the heifers we’d tested and moved yesterday. There were only 30 pair or so… but they were brushed up on a point along the Nowood Creek. Back in the day, you could ride your horse through…

Gold Star
The stinking wind blew ALL NIGHT, stirring up the ash and making our world smoky again… but we had heifers to trail back to their home… so we tried to get up and going early, but my, oh, my! It was HOT. Almost 80 at 6:30 in the morning. Bleh. Elsa was Dog of the…
Extra Effort
With all of the extra curricular activities… we’ve fallen behind on a few chores. One was the bleeding of our AI heifers, to see if the AI actually took. This has to be done within a certain time, because after we AI’d them, of course, we put in a bull to catch them on their…
Backup
This was me on Wednesday. Holding the steers as others cut the rest from the herd. Brandon had to help me, of course, steers are just wild teenage boys, ready to go astray at the drop of a hat… It’s always good to have backup. **** June 22, 2011 Wordless Wednesday – “Drama” June 22,…

Minute Movie: “Mr. Bear”
When a friend called and said he’d just spotted a bear up in a cottonwood… you bet I was in my car and headed over, camera in hand! He was WAY up in the cottonwood. Hanging out. Dozing. He even tried to lay on his back on his limb at one point! S. waved at…
Four Bear
I debated today on whether or not to make my Q&A Vlog for this month. However, I decided to forget about it… my eyes are puffy, my nose is plugged, and I am sneezing frequently! Yes, once again… it is allergy season for me! Yay. Yippee. Ugh. With luck, Daniel will come up here tomorrow…
