Sunday Pic of the Day

[Redmt]

'Very nice! 'Looks warmly inviting.

Thank you. We designed it and built it ourselves. 13 months from the first scoop of dirt for the foundation to sleeping in a finished home. We did most all of the construction with my wife, myself and 1 other guy.

Stalked in on a large-bodied buck. No antlers yet (March), just buds. About 20 yards.

Because cows, horses, chickens, pigs, ducks, dogs, and a mule apparently isn't enough.

Sounds like my place, but substitute goats for pigs. I refuse to do pigs. 4-H rabbit or just a pet? My daughter has Dutch rabbits, I think 9 right now.

This wasn’t recent but was a weekend, but thought of it as I just booked shooting some events with another equine photographer.

Just pets we have 3 total. That's funny I won't do goats had them growing up and I swear the dang things escaped every other day. Tomorrow is my daughter's last day of spring break riding camp been doing riding lessons at a local place once a week sense February. She's in love with it! I forsee a lot of horses and horse events in my future. My wife was a competitive barrel rider before getting pregnant when we got together she came with three horses. Funny cause I can't stand riding the damn things.
My wifes barrel horse Xena

Bubby the old hand

Could probably afford a couple moose hunts maybe even a sheep hunt. But I prefer to watch 4 legged critters turn my money into crap.

Both my kids had horses growing up. My oldest soon learned that you had to take care of them every day. He also learned that when he didn't ride his dirt bike, he didn't have to feed it. My thoughts were that anything that big that was dumb enough to let you climb on top of it was dangerous.

We currently have 6. 2 retired, 3 are my daughters with one being a 2 y/o mustang out of NV, and then my 1. Plus 4 mini horse, 2 of which my daughter is training for visits to retirement homes/hospitals/therapy stuff.
I got into it through my daughters, started riding about 7 years ago. My daughters are working towards competing at various events. I never have to worry about where they are.

My youth EXACTLY lol. Always had stock on our place, dad raised sold paints. About 7th grade I was introduced to a Honda Elsinore and never looked back- no feeding, no worming, no floating, no currying, no mucking, tires>hoves, EXCELLENT SMITHERS!

In the 50 years since I’ve boarded the hay powered version again about a half-dozen times (my sis still has 4-5) and afterwords my ass still confirms I made the right move!

Put a lot of miles on horses as a kid into my teens. Then I discovered girls. Sometimes I wish I would have bought a motorcycle. mtmuley

Checking my 20 ga Stevens turkey gun. 12 pellets in head neck area at 35 yards should do it. That’s just Winchester Double X not that expensive TSS.

Two things I have NEVER lost money on; motorcycles & guns! Horses and girls? Well that’s another story…

Recent trip to the Midwest, my wife had never seen the Tower up close, so we took a little detour off I90.

It was raining brass here the other day.

Kasey leading yesterday's training session.

And needing a little help the last mile back.

 

[mdeerjunkie]

First attempt at doing a pheasant with a little help from my taxidermist. I think they turned out really well.

Yesterdays hike

Break time

Have had some folks here msg me as to where these wolves were at so thought I’d post it here. If you’re familiar with central Oregon they were due west of Terrebonne. Thought is that they moved south from the White River pack which is NW of Madras.
Hope they keep right on going

With all the traffic around there maybe they will become road pizza.


Think the muley wanted to get some shade but the sheep were not sharing. So he went up behind them under the tree.
