Double B's...Bike Ride and Branding

Kevin, Brian, and Loren went for a bike ride early Friday morning.


So early they got to watch the sun rise!


The annual Grant Ranch branding took place this Saturday, we had plenty of help
as you can see and we got done just before the rain started luckily!!!






We had some wranglers from the Tejon Ranch come and help out and
they were a lot fun to watch rope. Some of them were competitors in
the National Finals Rodeo that's here in Vegas every year.
This is Clint, one of the wranlgers from Tejon, he was roping injured if
you can see the bandage on his finger. He got it caught in the dally,
which is when they wrap the rope around their saddle horn after they
rope the calf. The rope did some serious damage to his finger but he
toughed it out like a true cowboy....

My Grandma is the official range cook. She serves up some pretty
awesome grub.
