A Branding Adventure in Kentucky

What's more American than hanging on a cattle ranch on a Saturday afternoon? The answer would be nothing, nothing could be more quintessential Americana, than gettin' down and dirty on a big ole'  cattle ranch nestled in the hills of Kentucky. That is exactly how we spent our Saturday afternoon last weekend. It was a gray day in northern Kentucky, but it didn't hinder the days events. Having never seen an animal being branded before it was a unique experience for this New Hampshire girl. I think after this past weekend I need to go out and buy myself some cowboy boots! The wrangler was very talented. It's amazing how they have the coordination to do this kind of work.

Yee-haw!
Smiles, all around.
The littlest cowboy.
I'm a sucker for a sign with character.
The cattle ranch was on a beautiful sprawling property. It's lovely backdrop and warm welcoming people made me feel at home, out here in the countryside.

I love this picture. Even though it was taken in Kentucky it could have been taken in a million places in the US. I love few things more than a winding dirt road, a beautiful view, and great company.
