A Beautiful Day For A Cattle Drive!

Well, it's that time again.  Changing cattle from summer pasture to winter pasture.
This time it was a piece of cake.  The winter pasture is just across the street!
How much sweeter could it get!

Sparkey and Tillie are ready to go!
Off we went and gathered all the ladies and their babies.
It went off without a hitch.

We put them in this holding pen while getting ready to usher them across the street.




A light breakfast was served buffet style.


And, of course, children ate for free.

Then some high tech engineering had to be done with the gates

A guy can fix almost anything with either baling twine or duct tape.

Now we are ready for the parade!




And, there you have it.  Another successful cattle drive!
Happy California Cows!

Once that was done we headed home and I thought it was high time you saw
Sparkeys new winter blanket.

Yup... It's giraffe print!  I thought it was perfect for a buckskin.
He likes it too!
