So, which sale did this horse come out of? Billings or Cody?
Do you know who the consignor was?
Hip number?

Matthew- He was at Billings. Cody sale is May 13.
We know consignor (wife talked to him on the phone) and hip #. just don't have it at my finger tips right now.
Do you know some of the sellers?
When I posted, was hoping John (mtrancher) would add to this. I believe we are done buying horses for a while!

I always thought the post-Thanksgiving sale in Salmon was the place to buy a horse if you didn't mind carrying him through the winter.

It's a hard concept for a Jersey cowboy to comprehend.

No sir. Lots of paperwork. Fella is hauling 4 or more total - just takes some time getting ducks straight.
Expect in the next week. Spousal unit is anxious! Me too.

Congratulation to the wife on the new ride. Trails will be dried up enough to ride about the time the new boy gets here. Looking forwards to some trail/beach rides with you.

Agent is hauling this guy and few others. Brand inspectors, vet papers, Canadian papers, etc. It takes time plus whatever other details.
Will be happy to see him.

He got into Palmer Friday and down here Saturday. There was so much commotion at Lucky H he was fidigity and this was the best picture I got. He's already settling in and much calmer and a great disposition.
