Hello Everyone. 
I just got back from may camp where Cooper. Duke jr, and Stewart live. Since Kerstein is leaving on Sunday, we had a mandatory viewing of one of the most classic American comedies of all time. Dumb and Dumber. We exposed the Germans to the beauty of Harry and Lloyd. They loved it, it was a complete success. Not to mention, I loved it for my 135th time ;)

Today was a good day. I started the day on the trencher, and worked till noon, right when it starts to get hot. I got back to headquarters and rounded up the horses for Duke sr who was taking an important client out on a ride. Then, I went out with Kerstein, and checked fences, water tanks, and irrigation lines. It was good to get the rundown on how these checks go, because it is a main component of my job. That was it for today. Pretty run of the mill. 

Tomorrow is a half day, more trenching and pipe laying, so ill get through that and have a a day and a half to rest. I need it. 

I have some pics from the last few days, as well as some from Kerstein from a while ago. 

Enjoy. 


Another beautiful sunrise looking over the corral while we saddle up. I love the mornings here. So crisp and cool. I find that as the sun rises my energy level does too, like its pumping the life into me. 


This is after the storm we had. Kerstein and I cleaning up all of the downed trees around headquarters. Ill have to tell you more about the epic storm that hit. 


A nice rattler Kerstien found while out in her favorite tree. They’re scary and beautiful at the same time. I’ve for sure gotten my fix though, after my trench digging experience the other day.


One of the smaller herds we wrangled a few days ago. About 300 head. You can only imagine what 1500 head looks like... A whole nother ball game.


And lastly, the sunset while sitting by the lake after a hard days work. I love the feeling of being exhausted after the day, while watching the sunset over the lake. 

Gute Nacht 

(Thanks, Kerstein)
