Spring Work is starting...in photos (8)

[Triangle Bar]

Spent this afternoon pumping up sprinkler tires. One down...fifty-nine to go. :roll:

Looking West back toward the pivot.

Looking East toward the end of the machine.

Looking North...after a long winter, a fella sure forgets how green the fields look.

In a nation wide taste test 3 out of 4 cows prefered Alfalfa to Grass Hay.

Here's my workhorse...'92 GMC, bought it in '96 with 70,000 miles, has about 240,000 on it now and still is a steady hand.

A shot of all my needed junk in the back...don't leave home without it.

Threw this one in for contrast. I took this 2 weeks ago, shot it out the back window of the loader. Went lookin' for the yearlings, after this storm, and they followed me back home.

Happy Trails

Things are progressing nicely in your end of the world. The green is pretty, and morale boosting. Thanks for the pictures.

OK, you asked for it, but just don't ask me to name every peak...we'll be here till Christmas.

On the East is the Sangre de Christo Mountains, to the extreme North, in the photo, is the Sawatch Range, to the West the Cochetopa Hills, La Garita & San Juan Mountains.

Nicky, it's preventative maintenance. As your tires sit there all winter, they slowly lose air pressure no matter how new your tires. The tires I checked yesterday, all had about 20 psi in them and I pumped them up to 35 psi.
