Wife is still chuckling about it Ended up washing the large dog nine times and the small dog four times that night The only thing that smells now is the collars. For some strange reason they don't roam very far outside the yard now LOL

I am still learning. This is what my wife sent to our friends today about our experiences Greetings Readers, today’s topic….strange smells (using that term politely). As most of you know, each day on the ranch has it’s own amusing event(s). (I really should keep each of these and publish...

About every couple of months I get a fax similar to that First one was about ten yearsa go.

I am on Wildblue now. I tried to run off a tower, but I am in a valley. The tower signal doesn't reach me. So far so good, little slower than what I want. I am used to Roadrunner at the old house. I am running three computers with wireless hub and works fine. Yes, thunderstorms and heavy rain...

Update She is relaxing more, able to hand feed her and we walk around together. Her back side and teats are swelling some. From what I have read, pprobably looking at two weeks. She is getting used to the dogs. Now the cows are back on my side of the street. So far so good. Llamas here are...

Thank you for your reply. I know she is a herding animal and she needs others around her. If she produces a female, we will be purchasing a male. If she produces a male, we will trade with the couple my wife purchased from. She does not seem as moody this morning as yesterday. She did allow me...

Well our ranch is going along quite well. House is almost complete, living in the barn until house is finished. I have been working on the cross fencing the past week. My wife comes home Saturday informing me we are now proud owners of a Llama. Yesterday, Father'sDay, I spent building a pen...

Well they are out. The past couple of weeks I have been building my driveway. I now have some impressive welts from the fire ants. What do you guys use to control the fire ants? I have done some research on the net and became confused. I am concerned about placing a toxic product out. I do not...

Last weekend I walked down to the creek about a mile away where the resident cattle drink. I could not see it flowing. I will be wiring up my well this weekend. Construction has started on my house. I am there almost every day. Last Friday I watched a construction worker flick a cigarette butt...

I just cut down 5 acres where my garden will go. I have a nice stack of poles for my fence. In a couple of weeks I will be renting a chipper to make mulch. Everything around here is too dry to burn.

Last Friday I was back at the property and found two llamas walking along the road. I called my neighbor and he said he would make a few calls to see if he could find the owners. Everyone was called, no one claimed them. I am assuming he placed them inside our gate later that day. I was back...

Is there such a thing? I would like to raise a few naturally and organic due to my wife's health. Where could I find them to raise?

Well that brought tears to my eyes laughing I never knew cows can produce projectiles. All I ever seen is plops. I learned something today

When I got up this mornng, news said rain clouds thoughout my area. Nothing where I live. I did go out and cut cedars all day at the property. At daylight the ground was moist enough not to dust up while I drove in. After 8:00 the ground was just as dry as yesterday They said the humidity is...

Not wanting to buy the herd, just curious of the breed

Spent the day yesterday clearing the way for my driveway and met up with the rancher who runs his cows on the property. He is a great guy, in his 70's, always lived here. All he has is Beef Masters, 30 in all. He said he found this breed to be the easiest for him to work with and make great...

Lots of lightening early AM, not enough on the ground to wet under my truck. No wind, very cloudy and hazy. Maybe the afternoon will produce something

Should look around here, they are popping up like crazy. Keeps me busy trying to make them more comfortable.

The section we bought was part of a 300 acre ranch. The rancher across the way from us has been leasing the property for over 20 years. He has Beefmasters and is doing quite well with them. The bull is 17 and there are quite a few happy ladies. One had a calf three weeks ago. There are 30 in all...
