Not bad on the guessing:

Hmmmm, I don’t know if I want to guess… Does it involve livestock???
Yes, in fact it does. How did you know.

It looks like they’re at a construction site….so, they found abandoned little kittens or weird looking bugs? Or maybe a buried treasure- if there is, can you share the loot? :0)
No kittens or I’d have a new addition to the family. I don’t think you could get grown men up that early on a Saturday to look at bugs no matter how weird they were. Buried treasure? Yes, come to think of it, they did find some buried “nuggets” that day. I don’t think you’d be interested in this particular bounty.

Hmm, four tough guys and a kid to help… I’m just happy that Rolf had sore muscles today too!
He did but also said, and I quote: “That was one of the funnest thing I have ever done!” Not sure that’s proper grammar but hey, English IS his third language after all.

I’m guessing they’re starting on your chicken coop?!
Oh Mel! Don’t I wish. Apparently the garden takes precedence to the coop right now. I know, Lame.
Jeff said:
That had better not be the septic tank.
No worries. We have become intimately familiar with the “ins and outs” of our fine septic tank capabilities. It’s all good.

Sheep Shaving.
While that would definitely warrant its own barrage of photos, you are close but not close enough. But triple points for using /sh/ so many times!

Does it have anything to do with a fence? Second guess, septic tank. Are you going to tell us?
Gosh, what is it with the septic tank? One catastrophic explosion with guests in town and now my reputation is “in the tank”! Yes, I will tell all, keep scrolling, Mom but you may want to shield your eyes.

I think I know what it was, and I’m not quite sure how you’re going to get this across to your audience!
I think you DO know what it is. And I’m not afraid to let it “all hang out” on the blog.

I have no idea… but that is a funny picture! I can’t wait to hear what it was!
You shall wait no longer…
We spent the better part of Saturday experiencing something all new to us but quite common to cattle ranchers:
No silly. Not giving one another “man”icures!
(Edited so as not to change the rating on the blog…)
Castrating bulls and:
Branding cows!
If you’ve never been to this sort of event, be prepared to see lots of:
Cow spit
Bewildered baby boys
Mad Mamas
“Helpful” ranch hands
Lots and LOTS! of cow poo
Mad Cowboy skills
Hollering!
(Sometimes but not always) An Austrian in sneakers posing as a cowboy
Opportunities to take pictures through fence holes while hiding from deranged livestock
DIRT!
You’ll need more than a t-shirt corner to clean that!
And more testosterone than you could shake a stick branding iron at!
