160 pairs to grass yesterday and branded 280 today.

I forgot to take stills of branding today. Pairs we hauled were heifers, old crocks and ten I bought last Thursday.

From the clothes you are wearing it looks like the weather has changed a bit from the other day.

You gotta be versatile. While we don't have anywhere near the cold you have, due to our altitude things can get chilly real fast and even in mid summer you never go anywhere without throwing a jacket in the back.

Posts no, I buy pressure treated. Logs yes, we can get a free use permit from the forest service.

960m at the house and goes up to 1070m along the back which is not a bad height for Australia as most of our mountains have been weathered down, certainly enough to affect our temperatures. Similar latitude along the coast to us is classed as sub tropical whereas we are quite mild and do have 4 distinct seasons. We do get some very fast changes in temperature when things change coming up from the south.
