inspired...

Post office run in the AM for more tshirt mailings.  Made the rounds for too long and didn't get home till 1.  Ben had an exemplary day.  Since I had those new cowboy ropes...decided to look online for a lesson.  Found this vid and it worked like a charm.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRxcCKeaLlw&feature=related  I'm landing it 80% of the time after just a couple of throws.  Once you know the mechanics...it's like magic. Will work on a new YouTube video to post tomorrow.  99,107,71,0,B,0

the ropes

Alpine run this morning.  Filed some deeds for some new property I just bought.  5 acres a half mile due north of TFL and 20 acres way out in the Solitario.  Helping out some friends that had the land and no use for it.  Got a new tire from Scott(Breezy) and Jared...to replace one that got a sidewall puncture the day I drove out to winch poor ol' Bob out of the swamp.  Did the rounds then picked up a couple of lassos from an estate sale while on the way out of town.  I think I know just the man to teach me how to use these in an efficient manner.   Also picked up a cheap adjustable halter for Ben.  He is beginning to show a little too much fee will so it is time to start the tough love training.  He romped around quite a bit and chugged 9 pints for his intake today. 98,109,73,0,B,0
