I ran it on the slide show and enjoyed every minute of it. I actually caught site of some of the babies. :heart:

I was a little bit confused there for a minute when I saw that you've listed NYC as your location and you were out riding in a T-shirt among Brahmans, so I did a quick search and see that your ranch is in Guatemala. Boy is it pretty and green there.

Thanks so much for sharing this.

Ahhh - Guatemala. I spent 2 weeks there in November. It is truly a land of eternal spring. Seems like the high temp was 72 everyday, but I was in the mountains and I think you may be more coastal -am I wrong? I think it is the most beautiful country I have ever visited and I look forward to my return. Not only is the country beautiful but the people ae beautiful too - they were so kind to gringo with poor spanish. Where is the ranch?

Thanks for sharing.

===========
6-8 years old are too old? Help me with that. Six year olds are with/nursing the 4th calf. Why do you cull so early ..because of age?

Yes - once I was in Guatemala City and can understand. All the Zones make it very complicated. I took a wrong turn off Roosevelt ave and wound up in Zone 3 which I believe is the Hatchery of all Chicken Buses in Guate. Also the grave yard of all abandoned vehicles. Quite frankly with the new political environment there it strikes me as a place ripe for the investment of the american dollar, but who knows there may be other complexities.

My wife had a paso and those horses in the pics reminded me of the old nag. Wondering if that's what they were.

Judging from their size and build and the way they held their heads, I wouldn't be surprised.
