Hope y'all are having a good day!

Me and Pepper out working on a beautiful day

Cows couldn’t figure out how to get to the hay. Boss wanted me to get a Japanese quarter horse and move em over to it. I thought I’d be funner to find Miss Lady Bug (milk cow), give her a few treats, and see if she’d follow me. Plan worked perfectly, and probably took a lot less longer to. Soon everybody was walking single file behind me. Hard to see, but Winston sometimes throws a temper tantrum if he sees me and can come with, lol.

Yes, the cows wonder what’s wrong with me… Yes, my horse knows I’m special, lol

Sir Winston’s my little mustang. Sometimes he gets bothered by vehicles. So, I decided to feed horses and take him a long with me.

I named him Lucky! Just for reference, my first video riding out to check her was taken around 7 (who knows how long she’d be in labor for). And Lucky wasn’t born till after 11! He was super lucky indeed, but he has a very good mama and is still doing good. The thumbnail picture was taken of them the next morning. I just wanted to keep them in there close to my trailer so I could keep an eye on em for a while. I had both my arms in his mama moving his back feet around as carefully as I could, but I coulda cut her with his hoofs or tore something, so better safe than sorry. Maybe someday I’ll do a video explaining beech position and some of the other calving difficulties / what to do about em.

Me, Paleface, and hornet were out taking a ride to check on a heifer having some calving problems. We had some little helpers following us most of the way, lol (part 1)

Moving Sampson (the lead steer), and his little buddy (lead steer in training), to where the other cattle are today. I like to sing or hum while I’m working. Seems to make my moves a lot calmer.

The exciting conclusion to finding a mouse under the bed…

Was ranch sitting, when we discovered a mouse under one of the beds…

Just me and Bill, tryin to have some fun.

My bestest little horse in the whole world, Sir Winston, got to go for a ride today. He did really good. Finally warmed up enough here in Antarctica that the footing wasn’t to bad, lol

Good ground crew + good guys in the saddle = good time at a branding. It was a long day, but it was fun. Luckily the rain didn’t hit, passed right by us.

I was working on a water gap today and I kept feeling something around my feet. I looked down and these little trout were loving my nasty feet, lol. Thought it was kinda cool.

We got invited to the neighbor’s branding. They raise longhorns which is pretty cool.

Me and pepper just hanging out in the drag. It was still pretty early out, so not to warm yet. And we were going up a road. So it was a good day. We eventually got where we were going. He will bite cows, if they don’t listen to his ear pinning. I always give lots of praise when he does, lol.

Nope rope drive by. He wasn’t very happy to see me, lol
