We had to move our replacement heifers today. It was pretty chilly with the wind, but what a beautiful day!
We three kids rode the horses (led Dad's) to a gate north east of the house and met Daddy there. From that spot, the four of us rode and gathered the heifers and two bulls in the pasture. The move was easy like nearly all of ours and mostly uneventful. Big J., however, spotted a live rattlesnake and Dad took care of it. That is kind of crazy to see a snake this late in the year, but then we have had some nice days, so they, apparently, are putting off going and hibernating.
And after we finished pushing the cattle to the watering tank, we rode home, leading Dad's horse as he took the pickup to continue to check stuff. : )
