Sorting cows from calves
We branded a little bunch of calves yesterday with Brent and Chuck roping well enough to keep those of us on the ground from waiting long between calves. Good to know I can still throw some calves and feel pretty good the next morning. A fun day among friends.
Clarence in the gate
A lone Blue Oak that has provided shade for cattle for as long as I can remember, well-before we hauled horses in gooseneck trailers. We still park and unload them beside the old tree to the gather the pasture, but it’s just not the same. Its limbs twisted within one another while alive, it must have been like a house of cards when the high winds came on August 18, 2013, to leave them resting against its trunk.
…before my time. The galvanized casing of an old water well, perhaps a windmill, elevated to fill a tank or water trough for livestock.
