Another Camping Trip ~ Part 1, Branding

This past weekend we went back out the ranch that I have posted about before, click here if you don't remember. While we were out there, they branded calves. That was pretty fun to see. I have never really seen it done before. Here are some pictures......


This one is down the road from where we were staying. Sorry, I just had to put it in. :P

I love this picture!

I think this picture is cool too. :)


It was a cold day, but it was fun to see. We got up to the barn about 8:00 am for breakfast and shortly after we ate, the branding started. It went until 2:00 or 3:00 pm. After that some of the group went shooting. Those pictures will be in the next post. For dinner we were back at the barn again.
Thanks to my wonderful sister for the amazing pictures!

  1. I saw the number "42" *screams and hugs* Sorry... It's the answer to life, the universe, and EVERYTHING!!

    on a less geeky note, say thanks to your sister from me, for the pictures. :) It looks very cool.... I haven't gotten to see, much less participate in, anything like that. It must have been really cool, and I can't wait for the next post. :)
