getting ready to gather this bunch of cows and haul them home from summer pasture.

giving poor directions :?

the landowner

heading out

some but not all have been spotted

all of these cows have heifer calves at side

slowly getting them through the gate

calves have been sorted away from their mothers

1,2,3............

waiting for the trucks to arrive

it was pretty well dark by the time the last truck was unloaded so we left everybody locked up over night and turned out the next morning

they're not going very far, very fast

last but not least, a couple pics from Halloween

even the puppy had to get dressed up :? :???:

 

[per]

This time of year becomes pretty devoid of color. Still fun rounding up though. The kids are quite colorful in their costumes.

Everything looks fine in your neck of the woods, Justin. The heifer calves are bloomy and carrying a lot of condition. Your kids are sure cute, with or without their Halloween costumes. Thanks for the pictures.

You guys steal those chinks from twin cowboys?

Thanks for the update Justin, your cattle had a good summer. Are you backgrounding your calves or taking advantage of the market?

Agree with Hay Maker on the younguns. :wink: :lol:

That's quite the crew you had there. Can only imagine there were a few laughs had that day. Thanks for the pictures of the kids and home for a displaced south dakotan to see. We're headed to the stock show hope to see you there.
