[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1624025, member: 498"] His mother was at work. His pre-school is closed. So dad had the kid. Dad tried to get him to go with a couple of the ladies who were there. The kid wasn't going for that. In dad's defense, if you want people to show up at your branding, you go lend a hand at their branding. There is a big pen that they put about 25 calves at a time into. There is an open gate in the middle of one side. Calves are roped and drug out that gate. You don't want to be in that gate. That was our close call the kid ran across that opening. I caught him on the other side. The good thing was the wind was right and the smoke from the branding fire was in his face. He sure didn't want to be there. And I had him in my arms. When traffic cleared we went back to the other side. Between the smoke and me getting in his face, he behaved himself after that. There was a 7 year old there roping calves. And when he gave his horse a break he was diving in to help wrestle the calves. The little guy I was watching will be doing that too in a few years. [/QUOTE]
