Quincy and Veldon at the Old Time Cowboy's picnic
Don, a longtime friend and past team penning partner. Don was one of the inventors of team penning
when he was a brand inspector in Turlock, California.
Veldon telling a humorous story
Opening exercises for another branding. With a total of four inches of rain so far this spring, it looks now like there will be enough grass
to run these late calvers. At one time they were for sale.

Clientele for the day

Peach invented a scarecrow to keep calves from going by. Grandma-type supplies came in handy for the project. :wink:

The next day, Tuesday, we branded and processed the last of our first-calf heifers' calves.
