Brrrr! 0 degrees with a real feel of -21. The wind is crazy! They have to eat so they can get warm, so feeding we go!
Photography
I love taking pictures. I have a great digital camera, but over the last year I seldom take it out of the bag. Instead I am grabbing the small point and shoot or using my cell phone. It’s a terrible habit and one I need to kick. This year it is my priority to dust off the big dog and start clicking away.
When mean cows encounter a stubborn dog!
We moved cows for Weaning today and there were several old hides that did not want to move. Jipsey did her fair share of persuading them. However her poor face shows her work.
Doing what she does!
Jipsey moving cows. Love her eagerness, at just over a year old, she is a die hard worker.
Counting heifers through the gate.
My husband is getting a count of heifers we moved. Jipsey is learning to sit and wait. Patience is not a key word for her right now. But she’s learning quickly.
Tink and Jipsey ready to gather heifers
Yep, they live to work. As soon as my husband was in sight Tinker left me high and dry. But Jipsey did good.
Looking for Strays
Yesterday we went up the mountain to gather up the few strays we could find. It was a fry cry from the beautiful day Saturday to 4 days later. Let me just say running tennis shoes and blowing snow equal very cold feet. I will reconsider my choice of footwear from now on!
Halloween fun
Made these for my son’s class party tomorrow. I think they are going to be a hit.
Icy Morning
We didn’t get the snow that was predicted last night. However we did get some ice.
Great Day to be in the saddle
Enjoying the view from horseback.
Mountain Gathering
Well it’s time to come off the mountain. We spent all day this past Saturday in the saddle. Let me just say I haven’t ridden since July and I was sore by the time 4 pm came around.
