One way to keep warm while checking cows BLM seeks
Hello,
And a Merry Christmas to you
and yours !
To most people, Christmas is a
time for family and friends. A time to
give thanks and a time to celebrate
the birth of Christ. Oh, many people
complain that Christmas is now too
commercial, but dang, it's fun to sit
and watch grandkids rip open gifts
and scream with delight when they
find the "shark teeth" they had
wanted for a year were under the
tree !
For many ranchers, it is the
Christmas cow sale. I guess every
sales ring in the Dakotas has a bred
cow sale during the holidays. The
family can come to town and ex-
change those boots that don't quite fit
and' tba'ehat thatqs the wrong color,
and buy a trailer load of cows to take
home before the New Year. And a
good time is had by all.
Now, speaking of good times, we
preg checked cows the other day. I
guess it was one of the more miser-
able days of December. I think the
high was around 12 above. The
southeast wind was whipping new
snow around and the vet hadn't told
me he wanted a space heater, We told
him to cowboy up.
And dang it was cold. But, thanks
to a couple of younger hands, they
managed somewhat of a solution. We
had a thermos of hot coffee to take
the chill out of your bones. They also
had contributed a bottle of something
called "Fireball". Now Fireball is an
alcoholic beverage that warms your
body and soul from the inside. I think
it would also be pretty darn good on
pancakes, but Shirley nixed that idea
pretty quick.
I suppose the Fireball contributed
to the good time we had in spite of
miserable conditions.
I've told you before we are a shar-
ing family. We are like the Indians
that greeted the Pilgrims. We share.
What's ours is yours, and by coinci-
dence, what is yours is ours. So we
borrowed a neighbor's corral to work
the cattle in. Because he had a load-
ing chute we could load some cows
out to take to another ranch. We
don't have a loading chute. I bor-
rowed one last spring, but I think I
told you; someone wrecked it in the
dark of night.
