Once again the stock is fed and no cows are calving and needful of assistance. Probably 10 to 12 inches more snow. That makes over 3 feet in the last two weeks and all the dams were full and the creeks were running when this cycle started. I am sure there are a lot ofContinue reading “4/5/09”

I got this in an email from a friend. I thought it was worth posting here. It doesn’t get much easier than this to understand. Subject: Socialism Great example of socialism! An economics professor at Texas Tech said he had never failed a singlestudent before but had, once, failed an entire class. That class hadinsisted that socialismContinue reading “Pretty much sums it up.”

I went out about 5:30 and it was just starting to get enough light to kind of see. Cows and babies are all humped up on the downwind sides of fences in the corrals.

A letter from the Boss: To All My Valued Employees, There have been some rumblingsContinue reading “So very true…..”

They claimed that it would be traveling thousands of miles per hour. I thought anything that fell, reached an ultimate speed ofContinue reading “Just thinking…”

Did anyone get to prank anybody. I didn’t. Yet! Bwahahahahahahaha! I did get dug up west and hauled some bales home so I am feeling lots better about the next storm coming in this Friday. Hopefully it won’t amount to much, but right now my weather is calling for about 10 inches of fresh snow.Continue reading “April fools”
