We began the second go round of branding, starting with gathering the cattle out of the pasture and sorting out the dry cows, (cows without calves).  It was chilly and rainy.
Above  is our cow boss with his boys.  They are turning into quite the cowboys.

We put the cattle in the coral until until the next morning and the fun began all over again.

The help gathered and got their instructions for the day.  Unfortunately, I somehow deleted most of the pictures I took when I was uploading them to the computer. But here is a few I salvaged.

We had some good help. Experienced and new, they all worked hard and got the job done.

We finished and I fed everyone lunch. The cowboys and horses all rested up.
