And me

We divided the bunch into thirds for easier sorting.

Nice pictures Soap. Looks like you're gonna be busy for awhile. We aren't supposed to start till the 10th of March here. We wintered a bunch of cows for a guy that weren't supposed to start till March 5th and sent them home today with 5 babies along side! RBT

Thanks Soap, I enjoy the photo's. Have a warm safe calving period.

Looking shipshape at the Spearhead Soapweed.


At least you have some character in an otherwise bland bunch of blacks.


Thanks again for sharing.

I'm so jealous of all of your dry ground and corrals!

Good luck calving, it certainly looks like you've got a good crew to handle it all.

Looks like you're defrosting nicely.

We had an inch of rain yesterday. Lucky for you with nice dry corrals and pastures to calve on.

Things look like a Ranchers paradise...nice weather...healthy critters...and a great crew...Let's hope it stays this way throughout the whole calving season!

I love this picture. Hope you and everyone else has a good calving season and that you don't have to worry about the blizzards like you had last spring.

Nice photos, Soapweed.

Have you picked up any hitchhikers lately? I just hitchhiked from Montana through North Dakota and South Dakota to Nebraska about a week ago. I may be heading back west soon.

Hi Tim, good to hear from you. If you are hitching a ride this way, give me a little notice and I'll meet you at the highway. I'd like to buy one of your books.
