Week 3 - Day 5 At the Ranch

Well another week has come to an end... it is going all too fast. Most of today was spent roping... on the ground and from a horse.
Bob's friend, Bob Hone from Minnesota, took some great pictures today... of course they were of me! Thank You Actually he did include Tony and Bob in a couple of them.
We spent some time "bringing down calves" so they could be worked on. It is incredible to see a 700 pound calf laid down like a baby when the hind and front legs on the same sides are roped.

Here is a calf that has been laid down... that is Tony (from Lethbridge) sitting on the calf preparing to tie the calf's legs together.



How would you like to rope one of these dudes? Thank goodness they are on another ranch down the road. I am not sure what breed they are but it is a good job they are down road... Roll






Temperature = 68
