Hubby went to check the cows last night just before it got too dark to see. He came back in and after we had eaten, he asked what was I going to do the following morning? I had a day planned of not doing too much. My parents were arriving from England and I was going to finish a few little things here and there around the house, before their arrival.

My plans changed when hubby informed me the neighbor's bull was in with our cows. Not what we wanted, so the following morning I saddled up Roc, my quarter horse who I haven’t ridden for a while and whom was feeling very fresh. He is my go to horse, when I need to get a bull in or gather cows. The bull isn’t too difficult to manage, yet the cow that is in heat, gives a lively show once we get to a crucial point. The cow, #34, turns one way then another as fast as she can go. Roc is right on her and it is an exciting ride for a minute or two. We finally get the cow headed, thankfully the bull has stayed with her after she's given in and they both run right into the coral.

Neighbor is called and he soon arrives with his livestock trailer and hauls the bull away. Wants to pay me for my time, but I would rather have a good neighbor who helps with fixing fence and he may have to help me get my bull out of his cows one day. Bulls will always make you eat humble pie, this time it wasn’t my bull causing a problem, next time it may be.
