Observing the Ranch

Papa and I rode Bob across the ranch today.  We left at 8:45 and returned home around 4 hours later.
We stopped along the way to throw rocks out of the road and to open and close gates.  This summer has been kind to the ranch, with water flowing in most of our creeks, all the dirt tanks have water, flowers are blooming, and our cattle are fattening up.  The downside is that our road is a mess.  We'll suffer riding on a rough road for happy cows!
