Sombrero Horse Drive
Every first weekend in May about five hundred horses are
moved from their winter range to a ranch just West of Craig, CO.
MORE
Sunday the horses pass through the small town of Maybell.
The event is an excuse for a family get together (too
disorganized to be called a reunion).
My Dad’s ancestors stated drifting into Northwest
Colorado in the late 1890’s. A Great Uncle and my grandfather (who died
years before I was born), homesteaded
between Maybell and Elk Springs.
A portion of the homestead has been set aside as a family
cemetery.
We usually convoy to the cemetery on Saturday. Cremains
are buried and graves attended. Saturday evening we have a pot luck supper in
the Maybell Community Center.
Great glee is shared Sunday as we watch the gussied up
dudes, who have paid $4,000+ to participate, pass by. We say howdy to the ten
or so local “real” cowboys who are getting it done, for pay.
Commenting your
blogs will be light over the weekend.
Emperior Polis’ Succesor?
Our current Attorney General is now a candidate for
Governor. Some highlights from his first and second terms.
MORE
Under his leadership as the chief of state Law
Enforcement?
MORE
He is party to 64 lawsuits against the Trump
Administration for which the (P)regressives heap praise.
MORE
What is not mentioned is he is the lead plaintiff in
four. All the rest he signed on to suits brought by other (P)regressive
Attorney Generals’ from other blue states. He is yet to win any of the four.
Big Brother is Watching - Flock Cameras
MORE
Our State Legislature recently punted on a bill to outlaw
these cameras bowing to the howls of LEOs loving them.
Hasn’t LL mention the amount of copper in these cameras?
Hint, hint criminals.
China Meddling
Evidence has surfaced showing Colorado econazis are being
funded in part by China. Simple, keeps Colorado minerals in the ground and
remain dependent on China is likely the reason.

Car Story
A salesman, Jerome “Butch” Cassidy had a belligerent,
perhaps intoxicated, customer that was making demands and rude comments.
Finally, Butch had enough and told him to leave.
The customer went belly to belly with Butch. Three of us
walked up behind Butch and stood there with our arms folded. The asshole
started for the exit when he noticed stairs going up to the second floor
offices. He went running up the stairs and came to the owner’s office.
The owner was at his desk, reading the newspaper when the
asshole asked him, “Do you work here?” Dumb question.
The owner shifted slightly, lowered his newspaper, and
said, “I own this store”.
“Well, you salesman told me to leave, and I am mad!!!!”
“One of my salesmen told you to leave”, asked the owner?
“YES!!!!”
“Then why are you still here?”, said the owner and went
back to reading his newspaper.
Asshole left. Butch went up to the owner’s office.
“Butch”, said the owner. “You get about one of those a
year”.
As always, YMMV

Flock is owned by Larry Ellison, the Oracle Software billionaire who believes that an all-pervasive surveillance state is a good idea because it will force all citizens to be on their best behavior.
https://deflock.org/ is a crowd-sourced map of Flock cameras.
Here in Oregon there's been an outcry against Flock cameras - but only because libs realized that ICE can use them to track illegals. Not because of ongoing surveillance of law-abiding citizens.
