Peteyfoozer’s Journey (because journaling’s not enough)

Good news is, after sleeping for a couple hours, I was able to get the veggies in the soup. Then I put it on simmer and fell back asleep to find it boiling all afternoon.
Didn’t hurt the flavor any, so I win!

You got your nap and supper too. I call that a win/win!

Some of my favorite ranch pics

The cavvy in the corral next to the big barn, waiting to see which of them the cowboys will pick to work that day

Ready to saddle

Each cowboy has his own tack closet in the barn

Cavvy headed back to their pasture

It's like a great Western movie!

I never learned to ride, my parents forbade it.

When I was in my 30s a friend who raised Welsh ponies gave me driving lessons. That was fun.

Here’s some pics that are a little more western…

Kinda sad news, for me. I was really hoping to get another English Shepherd, since Fen chose Randy. Fen’s breeder rebred his sister and I was praying for a little sable female out of the litter. Unfortunately, she whelped last night and only had 2 pups, both male. She usually has a pretty long list of prospective puppy buyers so there’s not much chance of my getting a puppy this year.

Maybe you should get an unrelated female, do you could raise your own puppies. There seems to be a high demand and low supply.

I bred horses for decades. Sheep, goats, cows, I enjoyed raising all of them, but I could never bring myself to deal with a litter of puppies
