Visit Tony Hamilton!

 Saturday, April 2, 2016 - Citra, FL

We were up early this morning.  We were planning on heading south to Palm Bay, FL to see Tony Hamilton.  We have not seen him for about 30 years.  He was the best man in our wedding and we lost touch, but recently tracked him down.  :)  Tony called Thursday to let us know he had a couple of things he needed to do today, but really wanted to see us, so off we went.

We arrived at his house around noon.  The GPS said we had arrived, but this is all we saw.  :)
His house was at the end of the lane.  We met his wife Dawn and daughter Maddie and step-daughter Stephanie.

After spending a little time catching up, we told them we would be happy to help them with whatever they need to get done.  Well they wanted to separate the yearling calves from the rest of the heard.

Once we got the yearlings separated, they wanted to band the male calves that were just born a couple of weeks ago.  We tried to wrangle the cows, but they wanted nothing doing with it.  Maddie let her dad use her pink rope.  :)
We still did not have any luck catching the calves, so we gave up!

After words Dawn and I headed inside to enjoy a cupcake that Stephanie had made.   The guys stayed outside to catch up a little more.  :)

Dawn and I finally went out to join the guys.
Mike and I had left Gracie home, so we needed to head back home.  It was so good to see Tony again!

It was another wonderful day!
