Two are the ones I've been waiting for the last what 2 months to ship, 1 is that fat heifer, the other two are cows that wouldn't settle and they are at the end of their lactations.

The hauler jsut called and he should be here within an hour.

We'll be careful. It usually goes good and with this group I don't expect to much trouble.

I hope they bring a good price too. They are all conditioned good to ready to butcher in the case of that heifer so they should bring decent.

He's been delayed. A guy with a beef cow just north of us called and while the trucker heads usually heads north from here he doesn't want to get in there with to much of a load on or he'll be stuck. So it will be a little longer.

Good morning

Must have stayed up too late last night, coffee is just not working!
We are only supposed to hit 52 today, with showers!
I can live with that!

We are hauling in a few this weekend. If all goes well, I will get the new loft I've been wanting! (for the last 20+ years)
Guess I should go look No.2s heifer, and decide if I want to keep her? She is a few days younger than Smokey, she would be a good pasture mate for her!

Poor Smokey is going to have to learn to be a cow.
YES!
The little demon child needs to learn to be a cow!
I tried to check a fence the other day! The dogs were all excited we were going for a "walk"!
Smokey got out and caught up with us! Red dog went home, and the other three dogs would not come near me, afraid Demon Smokey was going to get them!
If she is any indication of what all the other heifers are going to be like, I might just ship them all!
