Jim, thank you. Older and wiser as we speak.... Kroo, I think there might have been a good bull hiding. Sam, no problem if you can't reply until tomorrow sometime. Just wondering what flavor of conifer there? And I thought I saw all them damn weed trees down by the river. They sure do perfume the air in the late spring though, eh?

Wonder if he can get YETY to make a set of bags for his horse.

I remember asking the guides at the hunting camp in Wyoming. "What do you guys do in the off season?" One word, Cowboy.

Sad. Plenty of that around here. One of my favorite hunting areas out by the Cal Nevada border place called Cima Dome burned down a few days back.

Just grass and fence burned.
The fire shouldn't have been fast enough to burn up many critters.

Sams got fancy braided whomping reins. Doh. Took another look. Missed the crossover up high.

The fire shouldn't have been fast enough to burn up many critters. Doesn't take much of grass and fences burning to be a real pain in the ass to ranchers... Glad it was nothing more though, Sam! That new horse of yours got thoroughbred bloodlines?

How ya feeling this morning Sam? Happy bday.
2 things I’ve learned about horses over the years:
1 - When riding smile with all 4 cheeks (uncle taught me that one)
2 - for long days in the saddle get the skinniest one you can find. Your legs with thank you later.

Back to the original topic. The new horse. He's a little light on the bones and showed up a little skinny but he's in good shape. Smooth and likes people. Good attitude and personality. Great looking horse and a really well composed photo. Is that from an Iphone?
Fight fire, save lives, laugh in the face of danger.

You mean to tell us that somebody finally found something to like about a mare? You tell a gelding. Ask a stud. Negotiate with a mare. Cut their nuts off and they WILL obey, is what someone horsy told me once....

On the fire Sam, just close the gate....
A ND rancher tried that - he told us that he was half-way back to the house before he realized it wasn't going to help.
There might be reason why you folks tell ND jokes?

Thanks all for the b-day well wishes.
Barry, it is a registered quarter horse but certainly a little lanky looking. My buddies were asking if it had any Arabian blood.
Unless the paperwork is bogus(for a different horse) it should be 100% quarter horse.
I really like the horse. We were busting through the pines within about 5 minutes of starting out and he was fine. Wasn't to sure about the soft coulee crossings but got better as we went along.
Little bit of a hot blood which isn't a bad thing out in those hills.
Heeler, don't feel too bad. Did sleep in a little though, blame it on a long, hot week, certainly couldn't have been the tequila.....
Pumps are pumping and I'm taking the rest of the day off. (knock on wood...)
Smarquez, the pic is from my trusty old(wore out) Canon G15. Lens is all scratched up and half the time the zoom doesn't work but I still prefer it to a new smartphone for pics.
Earlier this summer I bought a Samsung S20 and it takes good pics but I'm having issues with two different photo hosting sites. I'm too inept to figure it out and haven't really tried either.
Las, oh you betycha those Nort Dakoatdans are a simple lot for sure!
