A delightful day after 0.60″ worth of thunderstorms yesterday afternoon and last night, high of 70°, our first-calf heifers drove well to the Bequette corrals to be sorted before taking them to their new homes where they’ll calve this fall close to our house. More rain than we received this past March and April, it came too late to help our grass, but good, nevertheless, to see that it can still rain.
Bred to Wagyu bulls, we drove half the bunch to water in our East Bequette pasture, holding them there before driving them to better feed up the canyon.

I love the top pic with the heifers all lined out!
I remember Douglas from some ranch ropings at Santa Margarita.
Does he live around you now? Nice kid. Tell him I said hi…….

Love these pictures, and loved the rain. Who knows — there may be more to come. I remember a really good rain over Memorial Day weekend one year.
