What I'm seeing today

[denvermartinfarms]

Making my daily trip 23 miles through the woods to see one of my herds, a little whiter than usual.











No one had been on this 6 mile stretch in a day and a half

Yea, that's a longer hill than it looks like or something. With this snow on the worst part is from A on over to caney mountain on glade top, some of those long hills require getting a pretty good run at them, but when there's a 90 turn right at the top and the roads slick you can't get to much speed or you'll be flying off the side and dropping 300ft. Then from caney on over to rueter it ain't bad at all.

Snapped a pick of my youngest while we were checking on some calves born during this cold snap. If you look close, you can see a little ultra black curled up behind her.

 

[jedstivers]

She's a doll. Bet she has you wrapped up.

Great picture bigfoot, looks just like my woods today. I love seeing happy kids, hope you have a nice fire going inside like we do!

Most 40 year old men getting paid to work can't go do that without complaining.

My babe girl will be 20 in Feb. She's still my babe though.

Denver, they don't sell too big of groups in that ring do they.

It takes 3 drafts to weigh a pot load.

 

[jasonleonard]

Is that Ava in the pic, Denver? That is a nice looking sale ring they have there.
I sure do like their weigh board, some of ours here have little dinky antique- looking weight boards that are hard to read.

Yep, it's Ava, only had about 1000 today, but the market sure was good.

Me and the girls rode down in the holler after church today. I needed to pull the memory cards on the trail cameras. They wanted a picture of "Stone Head". Not everyone can see the resemblance, but it looks like person's head to them any way.



We stopped and got a sip of water at one of the bigger springs on my place. They think its neat to drink water out of the ground. I told them it would be good for them to know it was there, if hard times ever came. My littlest asked what hard times was. I just said, "I hope you never find out".

 

[skyhightree1]

Good looking kids nice and happy.... I like that spring I wish I had something on my place like that.

 

[Bigfoot]

I didn't tell them their great grandfather got busted by the Feds in that very spot back in '46 making moonshine. I guess that spring was good for something besides cattle.

 

[jedstivers]

Beautiful girls. I too hope they never find out.

 

[denvermartinfarms]

Pretty pictures, that looks alot like the place I grew up on, it's got a cave with a spring below it and looks alot like your picture.
