Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'

Keep them doggies movin' Rawhide!
Don't try to understand 'em,
Just rope and throw and grab 'em,
Soon we'll be living high and wide.

Move 'em on, head 'em up,
Head 'em up, move 'em out,
Move 'em on, head 'em out Rawhide!
Set 'em out, ride 'em in
Ride 'em in, let 'em out,
Cut 'em out, ride 'em in Rawhide.

ROPE 'EM, COWGIRL JACKIE! 16 JULY 2014
CATTLE DRIVE We are supposed to be moving cattle today, a three-hour ride. Got my cycle shorts on and ready to rock. I chose a bad week to be here, as nearly everyone is a seasoned visitor or rider with his/her own horse back home. Having said that, the wranglers always make sure I'm looked after.
This morning they all left at 10.00 a.m. for a two-hour ride to move the cattle. I left at 11.00 with Lisa and a new guest to join the others on their way back with the cows. Once we'd pushed them through a gate, we had to keep them in a bunch so the calves got back with their mothers. It was really loud, all that mooing. One black cow really disliked me and tried to push out of the circle. I turned my horse and walked round behind the more experienced riders. This seemed to satisfy the cow.	Photo thanks to L Parrott
The noise level reduced to murmuring and the head wrangler said we could head for home and lunch. I rode Felix back to the yard up to the big mounting platform and got off him by myself. That was my big achievement today. Well, that and getting close to cows. Photo thanks to L Parrott The afternoon games were canceled; a big storm was expected by 3.00 and it arrived on time. ONCE A DOG RESCUER, ALWAYS A DOG RESCUER . . . One of the guests had been in town and on the way back to the ranch came across two boxers - a white and a brindle - abandoned by the roadside. She called Darcy, the ranch owner and brought them back to a warm dry bed and a meal. She is going to see if there is a rescue that will take them.
