There’s always something to fix around here. Thankfully it’s above ground and easy.

Had a great week at RODEOHOUSTON This was Gatlin’s first major and we didn’t place but we walked away talking about what we need to do differently next year to be competitive. Super proud of this kid.

It’s lambing season at Bolen Vineyards. We love seeing newborns in the spring.
