Working cattle, weaning calves, loading cattle... Yes, today found my thoughts winding down many trails with in my mind. One trail was marked by gratitude. Grateful for the blessings... Calves looked good. Getting a fair price for the steers. Things went smooth and safe. Thankful for a conscientious buyer of our livestock. And most of all, I thank God that I was able to do all this with Robin and our children by my side. And one trail was marked by memories... the generations of family that had experienced this on the Lonetree Ranch for over a century. Yes, some memories are recent and in "vivid color" and some seem to only run in "black and white". And yes... I couldn't help but hear my Dad's voice and hear his comments about his cows and calves, his children and their horses, about his appreciation for his good wife, Vicky, who was his best friend.
TO GOD BE THE GLORY... GREAT THINGS HE HAS DONE... AND CONTINUES TO DO.
