Sunday Morning on the Ranch

We woke Sunday morning early to go check the tanks that Wyatt had started to fill the night before. Its about an hour and half drive on dirt roads to get to the heifers that have just returned from feedlot and were A.I. 'd recently

Everitt is a pretty serious guy when he's riding in the back of the truck

This is an old barn/house that was built on the property by two brothers who used to own the land. I guess they hated each other but lived about 100 feet from each other :) Bob and Judy bought it from them years ago and these old structures are still standing

Good looking Heifers, fat and happy from their time at the feedlot

We drove through Winslow to stop at a feedstore, so Wy could get padding and pine tar for his new horse who is a bit lame and I had to be a tourist and get a picture of this "standin on the corner in Winslow Arizona"

Wyatt's new horse LeRoy

Arizona for the summer

Wyatt arrived from Arizona on a Tuesday and we had the house packed and moved out by Friday morning at 4am. After an average speed of about 35 mph, the toyota plus Uhaul managed to get us here safely at Hay Lake. Its been a whirlwind getting everything done, I haven't slowed down since finals weeks. But we are here, and life moves much slower now, just as I had hoped.
Wyatt continues to impress the Prossers with his work ethic on the ranch and dedication to the job, so its no surprise that he's moving up the ranks quite easily.
I'm helping out when needed at the ranch, but I'm also working for a "local" vet clinic which is about an hour and 45 min drive to Flagstaff but the drive is worth it for the experience. Bodie and Everitt are having no problems assimilating to the many acres of land they have to run on, however Everitt seems a little less heat tolerant :) Imagine that!
Roger took this picture of us before we left Oregon, notice the fleece jackets... Good riddens to those clouds!!! But we will miss Roger and Pat, they have been the best, a family away from home.
