It was just a beautiful day and seemed to me like a beautiful shot. The only way it would have looked better is if it had been raining. Taken 10/10/2007.

I took this a while ago. If you look real close you can see the cattle streaming down the road while cleaning out the Williams place. Taken 9/7/2007.

I had my youngest daughter out riding with me yesterday. I sent her down to get some bulls while I fixed the gates. She got behind them and was bringing them up the fence like a champ. I've had to bring her along a lot slower than the oldest with horseback riding and working cattle but it has been worth it. She likes it better and is doing as good if not a better job than the older now. Taken 9/21/2007.

We cleaned out the windmill pasture the other day and this is all we could find. Everything else moved out to the better grass towards home on their own. Lucky or not is the question. We found 13 critters while gathering on the 13th of the month. I'm not worried but some people might be. Taken 9/13/2007.

I finished baling the last of the alfalfa on the Sarpy side yesterday. Fifteen hundred and thirty four bales of hay. Just over 2 ton to the acre. I'm very happy about that. You can't really see it all well but there are bales all scattered through this picture as far as you can see. The Hired hand started cutting the grass hay yesterday. If anything it is heavier than any of the alfalfa was. Forge ahead. Taken 7/3/2007.

Can you say, "not haying weather?" That's definitely the case here. Cloudy, cool, and high humidity. I haven't been having much luck putting up hay. I think I am going to have to start using the diesel to turn the windrows to get them to dry. I am not looking forward to it but you have to do what is necessary to get things done. Taken 6/26/2007.

I was trying to take a picture of the moon and the way the morning light was reflecting off of the grass. It didn't work to well but the colors and light were intriguing to me. I was branding at a neighbors this day and the country is the Tullock Creek country. The open, treeless look is what a lot of the Tullock country is like as compared to the pine trees and Sarpy Country. Taken 6/3/2007.

A large patch of yellow sunflowers. My Darling Wife loves these flowers so this picture is for her. I don't think much of them. Taken 5/17/2007.

Ole very impatiently waiting for me. I was gathering some drys and they were in such rugged country it was unsafe to get a horse into it. I had to hike in and get them out a foot. I hobbled Ole up so I could do it. He was ready to get going again when I got back. Taken 5/27/2007.

Looking South across the place in the early morning the day of branding. It was a peaceful sight. The corral we brand in is towards the center of the picture but unless you know where it is, you can't see it. Taken 5/19/2007.

This really caught my eye the other day. The blue sky, billowing clouds and green grass really gave an idyllic scene. Taken 4/24/2007.
