A Hodgepodge of Photos

[randiliana]

Wow, we have has a busy summer, I am still around though. Here's some photos of the last few months.

We've been hauling bales

And loading bales that have gone on the looooong trip to Texas and Missouri

We've checked cows

And moved heifers

The crew...

Now that it is getting to fall, we are moving cows around....
This is a view worth seeing.

Lots of bales in the country

That water in the distance is an unusual sight for us

Fall colours

Moving cows on the other pasture
First you gotta find them...

There's some more

Through the gate and around the corner...

And we had to track down the odd pair that went visiting...

Thanks for the neat pictures, randiliana
I enjoyed them all. Your operation is certainly 'family friendly'.
I like seeing kids on nice horses. (and pink reins, lol)

Now, you'd have a little trouble roping something in your
new saddle... :lol2: :lol2:

Looks like nice horses, fat cows and lots of grass!

I didn't realize they were hauling hay clear from Canada
to Texas. Some guys here are unrolling round bales them
baling them with a square baler to haul down there. The
permits have been waived, but the truckers can't haul round
bales after dark!

Thanks for taking us along.

Great pictures, Randiliana. Glad you are again present and accounted for. We have missed you and your photo posts.

Lol, FH, don't need to rope anything, that's what corrals are for :wink:

DD and Julie(horse) get along quite well. They are mostly just along for the ride, but DD is learning the ropes, and that is awesome.

Yes, we are sending hay down there. It is an awful long trip, and the freight cost is astronomical, even at $2/mile. So far we have mostly sent big squares, but we've sent a couple loads of rounds. Not many truckers that will take them. DH is toying with the idea of unrolling and rebaling the rounds into squares too. Sure feel bad for the farmers/ranchers down there, we've been there too.....

Soap, I've been around, checked in once in a while just to see what is going on on here . Don't worry, I'll be a little more conspicuous once it cools off and we have to start feeding cows again....
