[Soapweed]

Opening calisthenics for a Sunday branding, since this was to be the nicest day for several.

Clients for the day

Taking on plenty of hydration

Sunflower rootin' to toot

Roper ready for action

Calf captured by both heels

Pulling it in

Rope over the wheel

I salute my hard working crew.

Don't let the goofy cap fool you.

He's a pretty darned good hand.

View from my perspective, and also that of Goose.

Peach and our granddaughter

Changing oil on a Polaris Ranger

My 90-year-old dad

Going for a horseback ride

It's nice he includes his grandson on these fun outdoorsy type outings. :wink:

Did you forget to haul that bales our did you just enjoy looking at it all winter? :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I see Peach has another little mechanic in training.

 

[Faster horses]

WOW! 90 years old and still can ride a horse. And he looks good doing it!!
He's pretty amazing.

Here all this time I ASSUMED you changed the oil in your vehicles. :wink: :lol:

I know one other woman like Peach, and only one.

If I don't know her you know 2. :wink:

Your Dad still sits a horse like he might have ridden a few miles Soap. Great to see he's still able.

Been cold and Nebraska winds here for 5 days. Making for some chapped bags regardless of colour.

Cattle look great. It must have been the price of the hay that made it good. :wink:

Is your moisture adding up to the good yet?

 

[S.S.A.P.]

I want to be like your Dad ... if I can get to 90!
The look on ol' paint (Goose?) ... he knows "the grandson" to well 8)

Goose has had to put up with the Kosmo Kid's shenanigans before. :wink:

 

[RSL]

A little more loop and he can teach Goose to jump rope.

Bump. Here is how it was four years ago on this outfit.

 

[Big Muddy rancher]

I must have been dozing when I clicked the link, I was so happy to see you back roping calves then realize this was a bump.

Still great to see them again. Good times.

 

[Faster horses]

Looking good and reminds me of he old song, "Memories are made of this".

Love to see the old pictures again. It does seem strange to not have all of the Grand-kids helping Peach. :kid:

 

[mwj]

Lets see if the pictures will bump.
