Youth Rodeo on Sunday

We went to Saddle Creek Church Youth Rodeo with our two interns and our youngest son we came home with 3 Buckles and two Halters. The kids cleaned up. The interns are barrowing one of our horses to compete on while their Mustangs are in training. They rode Barrels, Poles, Key Hole and Flag. It was so hot but today right back to work. It was nice and cool we had rain and clouds all day so we didn't start working horses till noon. The girls did the chores this morning and Harold and I slept in till 7am I don't think we have done that since Christmas day.! It was nice.

Thank you to Allen Samuels Autoplex for the donations to the Youth Rodeo.

You others kids that are posting about your Yearlings. Good Job I am enjoying seeing your progress. I bet your folks are so proud. I cant wait till the next one, my interns and son are interested in trying it. My interns each adopted a BLM TIP horse and are enjoying learning right along with them. It is not an easy task as you well know, but so rewarding.

Bath Time at the McConnel's

Zeek got his first bath today and enjoyed it. Who wouldnt with 100 degree temp. This week we will be working at night due to the temp. Early mornings are just not enough time. and split shifts are harder than night shifts. He is so black that he looks like polished black glass when he is wet. Hope everyone is staying hydrated and cool. This is gonna be one hot summer.

Zeek & Biscuit

Hey guess what I figured it out I think we will see if this posts. I am Chancie, Harold McConnels Wife. I will be keeping everyone up to date. The boys are doing great we have 2 MMO. Harold is working with horses about 16 hours a day me too but most of mine are hand raised ones of our own. He has 4 TIP horses and 2 MMO Horses and then trying to get some of our others during his day done. I dropped my good dig camera so until I get another all I got is my phone. Boy its been hot here and our indoor arena is like a sauna. So we are working mostly early mornings and nights. We have two interns this summer they are great help with the chores and are getting alot of experience with our TIP horses. Their parents adopted each of them one. They are working with them only after 3 weeks they are learning alot. Our two boys are also picking up alot of slack around our ranch so we have the extra time for just training. As everyone knows horses are a alot of work and we have 26 here now. Harold named the boys on the way home from Pauls Valley. They are so different from size and shape to personality. Both are very curiouse scardy cats. I want to change Zeeks name to Shall We Dance and call him Dancer. e is so light on his feet I breed and rais emy own colts for this type of athlect ability and this guy will look alot like ours after he gets some groceries in him he has good bone structurehe justhappens to be a follower rather than a leader. Ours are eating well we feen pellets they took to em right away. They are alfalfa.
