Riding in the rain, May 25, 2012

Bringing the bunch through a gate

The stragglers lag behind.

Through a meadow

View from a couple miles further up the road

One ear cocked means he's half interested.

Now he is fully interested.

Peach is evidently making evening reservations for the herd.

What would the early pioneers think, talking on the phone from the back of a horse?

The yucca pods are a temptation.

Just riding along

Singing in the rain

Hillside of cattle

It's fun to get wet for a change.

Does this slicker make me look fat?

Don't answer. :? :wink:

Family at the ball game

The boys are happy, because their dad just bought them some popcorn.

I would say you got the birthday gift I was asking for and got to ride in it too.

Grass is sure coming nice there in spite of it being relatively dry. Leaves are finally coming here.

I bought one of those yellow slickers, in '84 right out of college. After some time in northeastern Colorado, where it rains so fast you couldn't get it put on; and a spell in a feedlot processing shed, where it nearly changed color, I moved on up here, where it died of dry rot, along with two pair of five buckles. Moral of my story is: if it rains here you need a boat, if it's acting normal, slickers and overshoes are a luxury.

Riding in the rain--I love to do that!!

Grass is looking good, Soapweed!
