If not, I'll have to count on some good luck.~

It's a blog hop...check it out!
It sunshines...it snows...back to sunshine...Mother Nature is such a tease this year! It is unseasonable cold, but the good news is that our normal amount of precipitation is higher than usual.
Thankfully we are on high ground whereas the folks on the flood plain have already had issues with flooding and the mountain snows have barely started to melt...it could be ugly for them and I pray that we have a slow melt for their sakes.
All we can do it take one day at a time~

| Tat the Barn Cat found a spot of sun on my Aldo Leopold bench. He's probably wondering where spring is too! |

| Despite the snow and cold, spring pushes onward. |

Today Colt and I will help move heifers and their calves into the corrals for branding at the 3J Ranch. Tomorrow My Man and I will help McCoy Creek move a herd across the desert to their spring range. It's a good day when I can be in the saddle!
Happy Friday!
Its always a good day, when your in the saddle!
ReplyDeleteEven when the weather can be poor.
for their sakes I too hope its a slow melt! It sounds like your staying busy spending lots of time in the saddle!
ReplyDeleteHi Gtyyup, Lets hope every one stays high and dry. Have fun tomorrow, moving cows is a great way to spend the day or going to the mountains like we are. LOL
ReplyDeleteAlways love your posts and photos.
We've had more than our norm for percipitation this year so a slow melt would probably be good here as well. An odd winter and now looking like an odd spring.
ReplyDeleteMoving cows sounds like a good way to spend your day. Looking forward to pics.
Bring on the Spring!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteHave a whopping good time! You make me wanna get out there on my horse with all those amazing pics!

I agree with you any day is a good day that is spent in a saddle, should be fun moving cows.
ReplyDeleteHope noone gets flooded out, our county called yesterday to warn us the creek might flood his year, neither my hubby or his dad ever remember that happening before.
It sure is nice to see the signs of spring! Love the view of the ranch house!
ReplyDeleteWe're having a similar spring, colder than normal and potential for flooding. Matter of fact one of the grid roads we take to get to the highway is closed, it collapsed due to too much water/high water in the ditches and fields beside it.
ReplyDeleteOur particular piece of land is faring pretty well, as is most of the land around us... its very sandy here. However the water table is high so the ground can only take so much.
There are areas within 20 minutes of us that are flooding though.
Great pics, summer will be there before ya know it..;-)
ReplyDeleteIt seems like spring has been quite up and down for many people. We're back to near freezing temps again. Your pictures are great!

Enjoy your days of cattle moving! Enjoyed your pictures. I love pictures from horseback showing their ears. *I miss that view.*
