While the cowboys had already left for moving cattle on the Big Horns, my job was to get three grandkids (plus two others) awake, dressed, fed, and off to the school bus on time.  They burned off some morning energy as they waited.  Afterwards, I was free to catch up to the cowboys and help where I could.
