Branding Trip

(This post was put together by James.)

This is another rare attempt to make a blog of the latest ranch trip.  I took roughly 200 pictures and movies.  These were a few of my favorites.  

  

When I was getting ready to leave, Landon quickly recognized that I was leaving and so he left and returned with my phone and asked if I would call Golden and ask if he could go along too.  He readily recognized Adrenaline, whom he fondly refers to as Maximus, from "Tangled".

This is Louie, who I almost always ride.  Though he has some manner problems; he does have a willingness to work.  Overall, he is a pretty good horse.

 This is my quick attempt using the Macro function on my camera.

Uncle Paul going up Francis Creek.  Notice the absence of a hat, I believe it became a victim to Burro Creek.

The last day went so incredibly smoothly... on the way to Bagdad, while hauling a few cattle to the auction, one of the wheels of the trailer came off the axle.  I had never seen that occur before, so of course I took a picture.  Golden mentioned how fortunate it was to occur where it happened.  Surprisingly, this seemingly major setback only postponed things for about an hour, until another trailer was located.
