Sounds like a Robert Earl Keen song.Remind me in a week or so. I'll have some free time on my hands hopefully.
I tell the one that includes
Beer
A whitetail doe on the attack
A broken headlight
A police escort
A madman on the loose
A borrowed shotgun
A burglary
A judge in his pajamas with a tiny pistol
A jail cell full of bicycles
In one night...
.....running about 30+ head...darn Blonde D'Aquitaines...(.must be something mental there)
Speaking of being young, has anyone heard from @OwnedByTheCow?Do I win a prize for being the youngest? 20 currently.
Grew up in Ontario, usually was near the country, but definitely wasn't a farm kid. Dad has always worked in computers, but we always wanted a "homestead". Had to move to PEI to afford one.
Got Lowline Angus beginning of 2020. Loving the breed, and loving raising cattle. Absolutely tiny operation compared to most everybody else here, but everyone starts small I guess. Not my full time job, but would like it to be one day.
Have and will rely on this community for knowledge and experience I lack!
I've got 4 young...(10 months)...bulls to start to market in this heavily Angus area....I guess I'm still a contarious person.......will probably cross them later with something black. ?? But they are the most gentle and adaptive cows I've owned over the 40+ years.I'd still have them if the market would allow it. As fine a cattle as there is, IMO

Brings this song to mind, but you went even further.1960 model, my grand fathers had livestock when I was a kid, spent a couple years in the navy after high school then went back to home town and worked in a copper mine for a few years. Went west and worked oil rigs half dozen years until kids started coming and bought few cows and 1/4 with a yard after a few years felt the need to expand. Alberta land prices were too high so we ended up in Manitoba in 2001, been here 20+ years run 100+- cows.
