- Trail: State Land - Cattle Lease - mile post 78
- Miles: 9
- Riders: Self - Cindy - Fred - Mike - Jenny
- Horses: Jack - Shooter - Cowboy - Sorrel - Black
Notes: More of a cattle gathering than a trail ride. I didn't grow up on a ranch or around cattle other than when it came time to butcher 'em, cut'em up, wrap'em and put 'em in the freezer. With that said - Jack and I stepped out of our comfort zone a little and helped gather/process cattle. Knowing very well what I don't know - I mostly just stayed out of the way. I did get to do the vaccination part. Aside from screwing up a couple injections before getting the hang of it - I rather enjoyed getting to stick them in the neck with a dull needle. Call it retribution for all the cows that have tried to stomp me to death over the years.
