Branding In The Hills of Bakersfield

Hello all! I’m so sorry I went MIA for a few days, but I got the chance to help a friend gather and brand for a long weekend, so I took it!

Getting the chance to see new country is always exciting, and I'm pretty sure that Bakersfield has more rocks than I've ever ridden through. It is a little surprising when you're hauling butt down a hill to rope a calf and come upon an enormous pile of rocks. Pay attention, Liz! 

I made it home Sunday night, zipped up to San Francisco on Monday and now I’m happily tucked in my own home while the Santa Anna wind whips down the mountain behind our house.

Today I will change the world. Not in its entirety, but because I’ve made the choice to forget the harsh things people have said, the cruel things people do to each other and the sadness that threatens our world. Instead, I’m focusing on being the most joyful, kind version of me possible. 

Do your part to bring a little sunshine to the people around you today, it really does matter and reaches much farther than we might realize! Even if it's just a genuine, "how are you today?"

Here’s some pictures of my weekend, just for fun! Hope you all have an amazing HUMP DAY!!!
