A different Day- Cody Johnson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KkBlc1i1Yk

Its one of those things that you don't ever wish on anyone. It also has heightened my awareness to the sounds of the hydraulics. I have always been able to hear the difference in the sounds, but its even more evident now. Just have to remember to be thankful for everything you have. The...

Moving pairs to and from the calving barn to pastures and other barns was definitely a challenge there for a while but we made it through. Got a picture today saying we got the last baby, so that's a relief.

I have been doing great. I went back to work right after school started in August and helped put up silage and the such. My back is basically normal except for those few weeks where we had ice for weeks and we were all doing the Tim Conway shuffle. That messed with my back a bit but overall...

Well I've been away for awhile but livestock judging here at SDSU kept me busy as well as working as much as I can out at the ranch. As we all know its bull sale season and I just wanted to share the word about Wienk's Charolais bull sale that will be coming up on the 26th of April! I have...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QJyMq6UN48 A good one that is very true. Just how we were raised.

We had a miscommunication on the ranch I was working on for the summer. We were cleaning a rear load Vermeer bale processor and the forks on the back got let down on me and I was crushed. I broke the wings on the lower lumbar vertebrae L1 L2, L3 and L5. I also had lacerations on my liver and...

Granger Smith's 5 more minutes As a kid growing up coffee was always the time of brainstorming and many many memories from my childhood were spent that way with dad talking about life, cattle and God knows what else. There is always time to give someone 5 more minutes because you never know...

Soap, its wonderful to see you back up and around again. I understand exactly how you feel about being in the hospital. I spent a week in the hospital in July after I was crushed in a bale processor. That waiting and feeling helpless sucks, but with a lot of prayer, great nurses and doctors...

I saw that one as well. I found the first one to be a good article with little negative attitudes and was good at relaying the message. Often times we get so caught up in the madness of the media and answer too quickly without thinking of what we are gonna say.

I found this link on Facebook and thought I would share. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrQYJMGc7RU

As a college student that attends those job fairs and talks with industry people looking for jobs; I understand where this young woman is coming from. As a farm kid myself, and now a young woman working for a ranch in SD during the summer, my resume is less than perfect. I have received that...

Aaron- the numbers look pretty good. I am currently on the Meats Judging Team here at SDSU and we spend many hours in harvest facilities looking at beef carcasses in the coolers. We are expected to quality and yield grade 15 carcasses per contest. In my two cents worth, it appears that they...

Our herd of 25 commercial red and black angus are for the majority younger than 2008. Our two oldest cowsd happen to be 2008 models, the rest are mainly 2009-2011. And there will be 6 2012 models added here in May. We have kept a very high cull rate and slowly got rid of all of our old cows...

They turned out well. I rubbed them with garlic, rosemary, and thyme. Then to go with it I made a wild rice and white rice mix, that I added sauted mushrooms, green bell pepper, bacon, and spinach that I wilted down in some of the bacon grease. I grilled the chops then just threw them in a...

Sooo, I'm home for Spring break and mom and dad have determined to test my culinary talents. So the dinner of choice for Sunday dinner is grilled lamb chops and I am trying to find a side dish to go with it. Potatoes, salads, or rice?? I have no idea. If and when you guys fix lamb what is...
