Every drop of water that has ever been on this earth is still on this earth. No more....no less. I agree that every drop of water a cow consumes is returned to the earth. What is NEVER returned to the atmospheric surface, is potable water being injected deep into the earth in order to release...

You can get multifocal lenses now so that you can see up close and at a distance... mind you, you have to fork over money for those cadillac lenses. Do your research before you get cataract surgery. I think they are called Restore lenses and another manufacturer is Cristal ( sp?) With those...

Its not 'Canadian Thistle' it's "Canada Thistle", and it came from Eurasia, being brought over by 17th century colonists. What were they thinking?

Extremely fast. A school year as a kid seemed like a decade compared to now. Summer is a blink..... heck, even winter is getting shorter.

The only rat I ever saw was in a pet store in Wyoming while visiting there. Alberta has been a 'rat free' province since 1950 and we have an active Rat patrol that protects the border, by trapping , killing and stopping any immigrating rat trying to invade from Saskatchewan. However, we do have...

I read in a magazine several years ago , that they can process turkey guts into fuel. Thats what they should be doing with cow and hog guts instead of charging us a disposal fee. They should be paying us for it.

We bought a new BBQ the day before and spent 3 hours putting it all together. The BBQ has one of those infrared panals at the back for rotisserie cooking. I'll have to try a roast soon. (drool) Its a model that costs as much as a cheaper stove. The steak is a porterhouse from a 3 year old open...

Mmmm.

You still need a crew to sort cows and calves; Someone on the head doing horns and tags someone to catch the neck and tip the table someone to open the back hatch and rope a hind leg someone to vaccincate someone to cut ( or band in your case.... but why band when they are laying there rock...

Thats 10 teeth more than anyone else! :P

Franks Red Hot :heart:

I could not resist moving that wire fence. Hope you like it cowgirl :)

My road pet peeves are rumble strips at road intersections. They knock your wheel weights off and just ad wear and tear to your vehicle. ... and is it necessary to have 8 or 10 sections of them? would not one be enough? :x

Chexmix, I have been where you are. I too had a calf that would not suck a bottle, a thumb, a finger, nothing but its mothers teat that was attached to an empty non working tiny bag. I discovered the calf starving to death, and had to intervene and did so with tubing. I tried a bottle for about...

Yep , a beautiful yellow swiss type Simmental that chases us for 6 weeks after she calves. This is the one I wanted to try bear spray on. Her calf is again fantastic, but she is still going. Time and a repreive from her antics have not changed my mind. She has two months to live so I hope she...

:D Back to chickens. It took me over 2 hours to kill pluck and clean a chicken the first time.( with my Joy of Cooking book telling me 'how to') I cooked it that night and it was awful. The worst part was taking one piece of icky inard out at a time. Then I had some neighbours with know come...

Thanks for posting that.... I went and filled it out, also doing a few essays. :mad:

He is gonna be full for a while. :P

Thats one thing not on the menu in Canada... biscuits and gravy. While enjoying an all you can eat breakfast buffet in Vegas on a family vacation I came across Biscuits and gravy and also another vat of stuff called "chipped beef" I assume that you glop that stuff on biscuits as well. I...

I have one that works. We had to change the leathers once and one time the draw rod ( or whatever it is called) snapped so they had to go fishing for it. Actually I find it amazing that I can still hire someone to come and fix it. I still use it to water cows. Its a pain though when a horrid...
