Stayin' busy

We are working hard towards the bull sale and trying to keep up with the ranch at the same time.  It can be a challenge to make sure everything is being checked, maintained, and cared for. Braden & Aubrey are doing their best to keep up with the tagging and care for the cows. We are on the last round of AI'ing and all the clean up calves are coming now too, so it's a little western. They go out and tag one day, and the next there's just as many if not more tags to do again.

And it sure seems like things like to break down around here...a lot!  Tom spent most of the day on Tuesday trying to fix water situations. He ended up calling the professionals in when the other water system at the house broke down on Wednesday!  The old reliable Chevy Truck that we use to check cows is now in the shop too. When it rains, it pours around here.

Down the hole...we really aren't Plumbers!


The herd bulls patiently waiting for their water to be fixed.


At least the springs are running at the DryFarm!  A true sign that Spring is here.


Cowboy up! 


A good sight to see when a graft calf goes to sucking and the Mamma cow doesn't even kick it off.
