    A wee bit of rainfall

    I don't believe she has any. Those would be worn along with a dress. I can't remember the last time she wore a dress.

    A wee bit of rainfall

    My wife has been known to toss things that she either considers old or that haven't been used lately. I need to go look for them before the cold hits so if I need to get new ones I will have time.

    A wee bit of rainfall

    If I can't find them I will just move fast and not stand around outside.

    A wee bit of rainfall

    I lived on the coast for years. 27 is cold over there. Here it is just barely coat weather. If it does hit 10 next week I might have to break out my long handles if I can find them.

    A wee bit of rainfall

    Yep, we seem to be going into a normal pattern. The 10 day forecast has most days a high of 38 and a low of 20 with clear sunny skies. It varies a few degrees up or down. Next Saturday is forecast for the lowest with a high of 27 and a low of 10.

    A wee bit of rainfall

    It never rained until November. It has greened up some but it is less than an inch tall. Too short to tell what it is. Hopefully it is good grass and not cheat grass. Finally freezing at night with no precipitation in the forecast. I was talking to B about some of his cows pushing down the...

    Multimin taking place of sack mineral

    We use the MultiMin 2 times. New born calves get it and at weaning. Cows have been on a mineral program but B does it to his new born calves. He has been here a lot of years and does that to his calves so I follow the leader. At weaning the calves have just come off range where it is...

    How to sell cattle

    How many do you have to sell? If it is just a handful the sale yard is most likely your only option. Feedlots for the most part will want semi loads. Google feedlots in your state and surrounding states. I have seen feedlots listed by states before. I also know that is some states there are...

    Walk about cow

    Yes. She had a calf here. They both must have gone to Bridgeport. Where they went to the man has about 1,000 cows. The calf got recognized when they weaned. I got him back in late September. The cow must have blended in with their cows until they went to work the cows. Then they spotted...

    Walk about cow

    Last week I had a cow show up over in Bridgeport. That is about 15 miles from here by road and it is about 10 miles by road the other direction to where she was turned out. If she cut the corner and went in a straight line it is about 20 miles from A to B. I planned to take her to the sale...

    Bought a couple of cows today

    Compared to last week today was a pretty short sale. I got 2 cows bought. When I got home I glanced at the brand release paper. Right off I noticed something. One of the cows I bought came from a neighbor. A lightning C on the left rib. We will have to make sure we get that cow branded and...

    It’s good to have trees

    Yes and I replied. But my reply doesn't show up so I did it again.

    It’s good to have trees

    The only tree on my place are cottonwoods along the river. The beavers seem determined to rid the world of them. There are still some juniper patches on the hill but getting up there to feed would be an issue. And the fences are all gone from the fire.

    Good snow

    I have way too many things to get done before the snow flies.

    Long day at the sale

    The older I get the more I hate night time driving. But if I had got in line to get loaded I would have been midnight by the time I got home I just jump on the tail of a semi and follow on their tail.

    Long day at the sale

    Last Thursday I hauled in a kill bull and cow for B. Left the house before 9:00. Got to the sale a little before 11:00am. Watched a couple thousand feeders sell. Only got one cow bought at about 7:00pm. They got done with bred cows and started in with kill cows at about 7:10. Dashed to the...

    Loose cows

    I thought we had got them all. Never had them where we could count them. When we hauled them to the sale there was 62 cows and 62 calves. I used the number of ear tags used minus the couple that died and the number previously sold and 62 sounded right to me. I have been know to be wrong once...

    Loose cows

    Gone a couple days to a wedding in Winnemucca. Came home to 7 or 8 pairs out in the field. The cowboys will come thin them out tomorrow Also got a phone call from a guy up in Bridgeport (about 15 miles away). He has a calf of mine in his corral. That calf traveled. Calf #14. I wonder...

    Loose cows

    15 to 30 piles of bear poop in the yard every morning but not a single scrap of Charmens toilet paper.
