Daylight Come, Daylight Go...Down at the Y Bar O

Spring works is my absolute favorite time of year on the ranch.  Especially days that I am on the payroll!  You just can't beat the vast wide open spaces and untouched countryside seen from atop a horse.  Breathing in the cool morning air and the hearing the sound of the cowboys spurs as they jingle...all reasons why I love living on a ranch.  I will say that ranch work is not for the faint of heart...and you better be all in if you head out to round-up that morning because more than likely you will end up miles from the house and you don't head home until that days task is complete.  It certainly takes a special person to be a rancher...a good combination of cow sense, love for the country and manuel labor...and that is what makes them so special!
