Made it back from Bassano!

Well...made it back from Bassano. I swear it is like it's own little Twilight Zone there! The countryside is so different from the foothills, it's something you'all have to experience. From jumping cactus, to the people, to land that goes on forever....


Where prairie meets the sky!

The land the cattle is on includes a great river valley, which makes for spectacular scenery! Here is the cattle coming out of the valley. Neat, eh?

Some of the crew. The neighbours were gathering the same day and came to help us as well. AND that's right....you did see a plane in the picture!
Grant uses a plane to check his cattle. Here he is flying over ours while we gather.

There is a joke that this is the only tree for miles and everyone laughs. But it's true!
A sincere thank you to all the locals at Bassano for making our stay fabulous! From the great old fashioned bathtub in our hotel room... to the waitress at Rosie's where we had breakfast every morning...to the friends that made us laugh until our guts hurt. I haven't had such a great time gathering cattle in years!
