Getting ready to join the drive! |
Sometimes you have to go in
after the cow! |
Crossing the creeks is always
fun! The Sawlog, the Eight Mile and the
Five Mile
run through the ranch. |
Someone always has to hold the horses while the others fix the fence! |

No log is too high for a WAR Morgan to get across! |

tower standing at the original
homestead site of WB Warner. |
Checking the calving cows.
So amazing to see the new ones even after
all these years! |
Checking cattle is done rain or shine!! |

The little calves are so curious! |
Everyone takes their turn
getting a leg up until they are tall enough
to get on alone! |
The last quarter mile push to
the water tank after a 4 mile trek! |
Sometimes the fog rolls in while we are
gathering cows... |

This little guy

Something special
about the Kansas plains and sky! |
Still getting used
to the "off color" ones around here, but find
they
work just as hard! |
Sometimes the sun
goes
down a little too soon! |
First rain shower
these two-yr-olds ever encountered under
saddle. Weren't sure about it at first but took
it in stride. Didn't take them long to "roll it
off" when they got home! A horse of another
color.... |

Sometimes a cow just isn't in
the mood to be interrupted! |
Marcella giving instructions as
usual! My second in command "riding shotgun"! |
The "crew" patiently waiting
till the cattle are ready to go back to pasture. |
Moving some newly weaned calves to the start
of their independent lives! |
