I hope that I can make it through until we get some rain. This is a way of life and I refuse to give up so I either make it with what I have or go down in flames.
Gambling in Vegas is for Sissy's. Try cattle instead!

One of my disaster management options the Homeland Security Advisor told me I could do is sell my interior pasture gates and buy hay with them. They did come in handy at one time when I practiced rotational grazing but they are now obsolete.
I don't know if this is drought related or not but one thing I have noticed lately is the cow birds are getting slaughtered by hawks. I don't know if the mice have moved to the woods or what but I've seen three cow birds get nailed in as many days. Its a spectacular sight to watch. Looks like a dove getting hit with a full load. White feathers flying everywhere.
