Ben and Papa - 2 Peas in a Pod

Ben and Papa definitely bonded this visit. Ben rode in the FEED Truck with Papa, which he loved. He felt he was a important part of the ranch operation. He opened gates with Papa, and was proud that he knew that the feed truck gets filled from the top. He knew how to run the siren to call the cattle, and how to make the feed go out to the cattle. He love this feed truck! It is important that he bonded with his papa this visit, because previously, Papa was somewhat of a scarey being to him.

He was only two years old last summer, and was attached to mommy. He would cry when I tried to leave him with someone else, then Papa would yell at him for whining and crying, then he just clung to me all that much more.






The ranch is a tough place for a little guy. Those mooing cows seemed so big and so loud to him last summer, but this summer, he was in charge of the feed truck operations (or so he thought), so he had no fear! He and Papa had a great time. He always had the biggest smile on his face when he was riding in the feed truck with Papa!
