We shipped our steers to their buyer in Nebraska. It’s what we’ve worked for since these steers were born in the spring of 2015. It’s pay day. It’s also a chance for 4 generations to work together… well, kinda… he’s getting there! Keep on learning, Jaxon! You’ve got the best teacher!

Have you ever been in wet jeans? I mean like, “jump-in-a-swimming-pool” wet? Have you tried to peel them down your legs, or pull them back up? Then, have you tried to move? Like, bend your knees… think… getting on a horse in wet jeans. Think “Wet Saddle”. Think “having to get off your horse to…
Storm Along the Red Wall (Puzzle Included)
Our yearling steers sold this morning, so we all met here and watched the video auction and then, for lunch, ate some nice Greet Ranch beef… While we were towards the top of the prices, of course, the market is down compared to the past two years. It’s not like we have control over the…
Going Nowhere
I continue to check the water and cows and salt and mineral supplies on the Slope Pasture. That means load the dogs, grab some water for me!, a 50# sack of mineral and salt each, check the gas gauge on the Rhino, make sure you have on wraparound sunglasses and a tight fitting baseball cap…

That Job
It seems a lot of us are suffering from the heat of late. It’s been hitting or approaching 100˚ here. My insulated water bottle has been getting used constantly… though that means its pretty metallic surface is getting scratched up. Physical work takes place, if possible, in the early morning hours. I just laughed when…

Hot Work
June 20th. It used to be THE DAY. DON’T PLAN ANYTHING, DON’T GO ANYWHERE. Cattle need to be off the BLM ground and we used to gather for days and days. Now, we’ve changed things up a bit, pulling our cows and calves off early to put them with particular bulls in different spots. However,…
