The hired man and I got our horses and rode out to the <a href="http://www.nowherethoughts.net/pics/cows.jpg" onclick="window.open('http://www.nowherethoughts.net/pics/cows.jpg','popup','width=881,height=381,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false">cows</a> to find the cow that needed doctored. The cows have really been calving along and there were quite a few calves on the feed ground.

You always have to be careful when messing around with young calves as their moms stand <a href="http://www.nowherethoughts.net/pics/guardcow.jpg" onclick="window.open('http://www.nowherethoughts.net/pics/guardcow.jpg','popup','width=485,height=782,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false">guard over them</a> very closely. We had no particular problem finding the cow we were looking for and got <a href="http://www.nowherethoughts.net/pics/footrot.jpg" onclick="window.open('http://www.nowherethoughts.net/pics/footrot.jpg','popup','width=532,height=518,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false">her</a> in to the corral and doctored her.

Now I have to admit I normally don't carry a camera with me but I knew there was a couple of calves that My Darling Wife would love to see pictures of. You see she just loves pictures of the occasional <a href="http://www.nowherethoughts.net/pics/whitecalfs.jpg" onclick="window.open('http://www.nowherethoughts.net/pics/whitecalfs.jpg','popup','width=720,height=369,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false">white faced calf</a> and there happens to be two brand new ones running around right now.
