First Branding

We had our first branding last week. We branded about 240 calves. It hailed, rained, blew, rained some more and blew some more ALL day long. We had some great help thanks to Jake, the new cowboy's family.

I always forget to take pictures of the food I cook and everyone eating so here is the menu for the first day.
Cheesy Meatballs
Layered Lettuce Salad
Rolls
Glorified hashbrowns
Rich butterscotch bars
