    Farm sanctuary won't give up two cows that wondered on their property back to the rightful owner.

    per something in Silvers airplane thread - what folklore "signs" of rain do you know?

    2 common around here is rain before San Juan's Day (June 24) either no more rain until July 15, bad monsoon altogether, or bad year (yikes) and the other is when the harvester ants make a tall mound it will be a good rain. the San Juan's no more until the 15 was pretty accurate this year...

    oh I don't have a problem with whataburger, but trying to figure out what those parent's problem was, that was all I could think of.

    What changed?

    on the first example maybe they didn't want him eating that much junk? can't imagine either one really. I hire mine out without asking all the time. and dang straight I have errands if they use my vehicle. I will make some up if I don't.

    Power line

    oh and I don't blame ANYBODY for rather working with landowners than BLM! with them you get govt bureaucracy + nearby landowners + environmental types. at LEAST 3 times the headaches.

    Power line

    document everything, keep a dedicated file or notebook. take a lot of before and after pictures. one of your big concerns is erosion of that slope. do they need to fence the easement for you? can you have any extra/damaged/old poles (if you want them)? is this on a boundary of private or...

    BLM leases

    around here if you judge instead of them you can take non use or a reduction. they will do reductions if you don't first. blm around here is mostly year round desert type country. some riparian. most of the mountain/forest is Forest Service. in AZ there is a lot of State Trust land (best of...

    Bug ID?

    yeah, we call the largish black beetle a stink bug too. but I see why the green bug is called the same - they stink too! the black beetles are also called Pinacate Beetles.

    Bug ID?

    we get swarms of little bugs like that out of mustard weed when there has been a good winter. they will be all over the place for a week or so then disappear. like Travlr said, they are true bugs and most live by sucking plant juices. many are very specific to certain plants others are more...

    One of y’all’s favorite kinds

    is she barren? has she had a calf before? looks to be 4 or 5 did you raise her? gotta laugh at "thin" hell, she's in good shape for my kind of country. don't like her horns though. I like the old style LH, not those thick Watusi-looking things. face looks just a little masculine to me, too.

    Interesting old documents

    this place used to be POBox 4, then in the late 1980s they moved the Post Office to a new building about a quarter mile away. now we have a 3 digit number. kind of aggravates me. would have liked to have acquired a section of those old wooden boxes too. no idea who ended up with them.

    Interesting old documents

    that was really nice of her. just about the time my mother tossed a four drawer file cabinet of old papers we really wished we had some of them back. she kept a good representation, but I wanted to really dig into trying to figure out how many head ran on the place back then. (been in the...
