Sunday Morning on the Ranch

Today was a pretty typical Sunday morning for us.  I was up at 5, enjoying my coffee and reading the news.  Papa was up by 6.  We had breakfast, and by 7:30, Papa went down to the Rock House corral to put new shoes on Oscar.  I hiked down the hill around 8:15, passing a nursery of calves being watched by one mama cow.  Papa was putting on Oscar's fourth shoe when I got to the Rock House corral.  I shoveled weeds and then Papa and I sat on the front porch for a bit, to enjoy the still running creek, while the horses came in the yard.  It was a beautiful morning!
