The second half of the Memorial Day branding in Colorado... As I mentioned last week, they moved the second half of the branding indoors, because of the threat of storms. It did hail and rain like crazy, and there was a tornado watch! But all's well that ends well, right?!

I am just posting the photos today as a photo essay - no long-winded explanations. 🙂 I hope you enjoy this glimpse of ranching!
