High Desert Cowboy- How far is it up north?

[Rammy]

Let @Bruce do it. According to his kids, he doesnt do anything around the house, so maybe he can come help you since he has so much time on his hands. Shoot, he could of swung by when he was in California recently.
It was CA, right?
Anyway, please be careful. Hard to be a cowboy when you cant rope them nasty steers.

Yes but HDC lives in Utah. I think I was 16 the last (and only) time I've been there.

So whats a little sidetrip?

 

[Bruce]

Another $1,000 maybe??

So this morning it was up to 6! Haha it takes some getting used to the cold. I spent the first several years of my life in California and Texas, so I was not acclimated to the cold. My first winter in Utah I don’t think I ever took my coat off.
My back is actually feeling better. I’ve got a bulging disc but between injections, physical therapy, and doctor prescribed yoga I’m actually feeling a lot better. On days where I’ve gotta shoe a horse or cut wood I just pop a pill or two. But it’s way better than in June when it was constant endless pain from my back all the way to my toes!

You gotta take care of that back! haha, it's gonna be 31* tonight, was 29* last night and I think that's cold! But it will warm up and going to only be lows in the 40's.

Just remember, you chose to live there.......as did we all in our own parts of the world.

It's already been down to 27 here... last month. It don't stay that way long till late Jan thru mid Feb tho.

Wow! and I thought it was cold when I went down to pull that lamb in the high 50's. But you know us southern Californians have thin blood from the year round heat. We will have to toughen up for Texas. LOL
