The sun has finally come out, the temperatures are warming up and the grass is greening too. The last few days we have been busy, fencing, moving cows, fencing, moving cows.... DH has done a little field work too, and we have about 1/2 the herd branded and vaccinated. Here's some of what we've been up to the last week or so..

These always bring a smile to my face.


This guy was out enjoying the sun the day we were fixing the fence through the creek bottom.


The first bunch of cows that we managed to get out to pasture


Lots of water and old grass, and a little new green stuff underneath, makes happy cows.


A happy cow


The last bunch of cows to go out, they just got hauled away today. This was their last bale a couple of days ago.




My favorite old cow had another heifer calf this year!


Thursday I helped a friend move about 200 cows about 12 miles to pasture.
Just hitting the road with the last of them


This little guy was tuckered out after the first half mile. He got a ride in the trailer.


It was this mare's first time on the end of a rope


My second ride of the day, and her second of the year... But a good girl, waiting patiently for me after I helped put a calf in the trailer.


I believe that this is a ' I'm waiting....' look


Going for some of the wanderers


Nearing the end of the trail


The view


A cowboy, his horse and his dog


Some of them are nicely lined out


Someone hitched along, and now she's wondering where her calf is..


It was a looong walk


Finally


what we've been waiting for


The limousine, heading over the hill to deliver it's occupants back to their mamas


An empty saddle


A tired dog


Relaxing horses


That green grass sure is tasty






My 2 rides


This little guy couldn't find his mama, he thought he should head on back to where he came from...


My other ride


Hmm, guess she decided she should go back to her own herd....And calf....


Went all that way, guess we should introduce ourselves??


A nice ending to the day
