ML Ranch Jewelry: Saturday at the Ranch

Saturday at the Ranch

Well we had a nice slightly breezy day in SE Idaho. The steady breeze was 35 mph and the slightly breezier wind was 55 mph and up. Needless to say it wasn’t a good day to be outside.

Well I spent the morning and part of the afternoon helping a friend of mine brand calves and vaccinate cows. Due to the breeze and threat of rain we breezed thru 80 plus calves and the same amount of cows in record time. It was too cold and miserable to drink beer and Bull S@@t. WE wanted to get done and get out of the breeze and warm up. We even had to wait for lunch get done. We were don almost an hour earlier than lunch was planned for.

Well after getting out of the breeze we then started up the Bull S@@t. The beer drinkers in the crowd started to have some. It was too cold for me to drink beer. I shot of crown would have tasted good. However the guy in charge of bringing the crown (ie-me) forgot to bring it. So I stuck to water and coffee. We will have at least one more day of branding the late calves in a couple of weeks to do after the main bunch of the cows and calves go to the hills.

We start the cows to the hills around 2^nd of May. This is a 4 day trip to get them from his place to the ranch in the hills. It is 35 miles by the road to trail them up. Nobody only does the 35 miles other than the windshield cowboys. The weather can go from hot and sunny to rain or snow. Almost 30 years ago we had 20 inches of shoe to slog thru. We were all glad on Sunday to crawl in the truck cab and warm up and dry out.

Well ML Ranch Jewelry has added 20 plus items to our online stores. Check out these new designs and creations Linda has come up with. We have 4 items that need the pictures redone and then added to the stores.

We will be adding more products here shortly to the stores. We need at least one day to get the web site done and up and running on the web. The new web site will show off product that is available to buy at the online stores. We made the decision to not sell from the web site. The SSL , which is required to protect your credit card, is getting too pricey to maintain. The cost would have caused an increase in jewelry prices which we felt was not what we wanted to do based on our business plan. The online stores charges on selling product are low enough to ensure no price increases.

ON a Side Note

ML Ranch Jewelry is having a “Spring into Spring “Sale. Everything is marked down 40% for this sale. Check out our online stores listed below. Item prices have already been reduced to the sale prices. The sale goes through Mother’s Day.

Thanks for looking
