Hello again to the cowboy nation. This week I have good news and bad news.

First the bad news, we did not get an ESPY nomination this year, but by the time the decision makers started getting the word and all the input from the fans along with the packages we sent them and the letters some of you sent it was really down to a last minute deal.

I was blown away by the responses we got from last blog.

After reading through all the comments, they decided that the winner is Trooper Po, and I must agree that she was awesome in addressing what I asked for. It was very well written and she did a great job of researching and supporting her case with facts.

I want to thank everyone who sent letters off and I was also curious to know if any of you got responses back and, if so, what were they like? Were they just canned responses or did anybody get a decent reply back?

Hello to everyone in the cowboy nation,

I'm checking back in with you. I'm here at the ranch in Texas and we're having a great spring. Everything's going great with the cattle. I have all the cows and calves vaccinated and all worked this last week, and now I've just been helping the neighbors with getting their spring branding done.

Hey everyone,

It's been great to finally be back home in Texas! I've been busy getting things squared away and I still have a lot of cows to get worked this week. It's funny that now I get a break from "Dancing with the Stars" and the Built Ford Tough Series is on a break too, but the thing to remember is this is still a really important part of the season. Just play my new audio blog below and I'll give you my thoughts on that.

We are just leaving the finale and we're on our way to go out for a birthday dinner we're having for Jewel, and then we're going to the after party. I thought it was a really fun show to watch tonight.

Hello troops,

The earthquake you might have heard about, the one that happened here in Los Angeles on Sunday, well, Jewel and I actual felt it. We were in our apartment and the whole place started shaking back and forth. That was the first earthquake that I've ever experienced and it was wild.

We're back in Los Angeles and today we did camera blocking and we got to see everyone because all 13 contestants are back this week.

Hey troops, Chelsie and I are still in New York City and it's nice that I get to be here with Jewel.

We're on the cover of "TV Guide," which is on newsstands now. I thought it was last week, but it's actually this week. First thing this morning we performed the salsa on "Regis and Kelly." There's nothing like a 9 a.m. salsa to get your day going.

Hello troops. Chelsie and I just got to New York.

It actually works out pretty good because Jewel did "Regis and Kelly" this morning and we'll get to meet back up here tonight. I'll be doing press for the next couple days and Jewel will actually be here too, so that's good.
