I was teasing my neighbor the other day, at a different branding, that I was gonna come to his, 'cause my Honey is out of the country for the weekend, and his wife always has an AWESOME meal. During the course of the conversation, he said he had all the help he could use, but if I wanted to come over to eat, that would be just fine. Its only 4 miles, through the hills, but I told him I would pass. WELLLLLL, last night, a couple hours before dark, he called and said that he didn't have NEAR enough ropers, and since I am the greatest roper in the world, NOT!!!! would I come help. I had just dumped all the horses that had ever drug a calf, across the river. so I hustle around and catch my Frog horse. I said all that to share these.



Sunrise this morning was beautiful, with a full moon.



Sorting calves from the cows







Guys in back pushing the cattle to be sorted. I didn't get any of the morning round, as I swung my rope way too much, and drug a few calves to the fire.
The afternoon, we moved west of town, and did it all over again.



Ropers waiting their turn.



Dragging one out.



The fork and the smoke.

I think we did just over 600 head today. I am here to tell you my horse is outa shape. My roping is outa shape, and I am worn out.
 
But .......

You had fun

You worked with some good folks

You had a great meal

And best of all - your horse probably enjoyed it as well

What more could a guy ask for?

Feed the horse and give him a nice place to rest for the evening and a place to have a good roll in the morning

Go have a hot shower and a good nights sleep!

My best

BC
