More Roundup Pics

Now I know why they call Montana "Big Sky Country". The views just go on and on and on...the only sign of of civilization was the telephone poles. As Joe put it..."Do you think the cowboys wait until they get to the bunkhouse before they use the bathroom"?
Look at how the view just goes on and on and on and on...

The Cattle Roundup

Sunday morning we all got up and had to go and move the cows from a holding pen to their pasture. These were the cows used in the team penning from the day before.

This is Trina, Sherry and Brian loading up the horses.

Can you tell it was little cool?

And we're off...
Did I mention that Sherry had Joe drive her truck? Our job was to help make sure that the cows didn't go in the wrong direction and we brought up the rear. We followed Trina who followed the horses.
Lots of wide open space...
Here come the cows heading into their pasture...

Everyone made it back safely...me, Joe and Sherry.
