Another kind of Valentine's Gift (pics)

[RSL]

Yesterday we brought cows home off grass. Normally I ride in the winter with an extra pair of gloves in one sleeve, and an extra pair of socks in the other. That way when your hands get stiff you can switch to a warm pair of mitts and you can change to warm dry socks every few hours. Yesterday I rode with long johns and chaps and that's it. It was also the closest we have ever gotten the trailer to our winter destination...Last year we waited until it warmed up to -30C so we brought cows home and too cold to take pictures.
Hope there are some cows over there

A bit of a drop off

Nothing up this little draw

Nothing to the south

Just have to find them and get them back over there (plus a few more miles)

Found some cows

Down the hill

Turning them over the creek

up the other side

An Alfalfa Valentine

Pretty country! I was gonna invite myself up to gather cows with ya next year but i refuse to associate with a pert-near nudist! Riding ONLY in long johns and chaps might be appropriate behavior for you loosely principled types but we desert dwellers have standards! Put on some pants! :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol: I can only imagine what ya'll wear when riding in the summer! :shock: :???: :lol: Actually, i'd rather not imagine anything of the sort! :lol: :lol:

You live in some very pretty country, RSL.
And I think 'H has a point about the long johns and chaps... :lol: :lol: :lol:

I shot a bit of coffee out my nose when I read the above. Might have had a pair of pants on too. I'm not that tough... :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'm glad you had perfect weather to move your cows . It looks like just the right amount of shelter within the pasture, your cows are lucky!
