He works derricks for a good size outfit out around Pecos.I have done O&G and cattle my whole life. I'm the guy that drives up to the bank when it's closed and has to Google what today is. I complain when business don't open until 8 and close at 5. Thats part time, imo. A properly equipped truck has 2 24s and a hot shot on it.
What does your husband do?
I should fit right in! Thanks!Welcome to the madness!
Congratulations! Hubbs is talking about going cold.turkey some time in 2025, but he's said it before.I finally became clean and oilpatch free in 2018.
Yes she is a naming wizard, especially her bulls.I'm a serial theme namer. I started a dog and cat rescue in my town a couple of years ago where I have executed many themes. Potato chip flavors, type of cheese, brands of soda pop, side dishes, different shades of the same color.
We have a cow I call Zero (Chances of getting mushed by her are low, but not Zero). I called her bull calf Zilch.
My six chickens are Lucy Ricardo, Peggy Bundy, Red Foreman, Morticia Addams, Marion Cunningham, and Edith Bunker. Can you name the theme?
Is @TCRanch also a naming ninja?
I named my bulls after my sister's boyfriends. She let on like she didn't appreciate the humor but I think she was secretly amused.Yes she is a naming wizard, especially her bulls.
I'll have to get with her to compare spells... I mean recipes!Yes she is a naming wizard, especially her bulls.
I like the way you think!I named my bulls after my sister's boyfriends. She let on like she didn't appreciate the humor but I think she was secretly amused.
Yes! Almost always a theme for the cows, their calves & even lineage. Bulls are named after, well, they have one job. The implication is salty, but I can still refer to them by name in polite company. Currently Woody, Tallywacker and Shaft (can you dig it?).I'm a serial theme namer.

Considering the context, I think its awesome you call the implication "salty." You do the naming thing in your sleep, don't you?Yes! Almost always a theme for the cows, their calves & even lineage.

Much appreciated.Welcome! Always great to have new blood
I'm actually in Runnels County. 2024 has been a big rain year for you over there, I guess. A lot of that built up right over my head and just moved on...Welcome, I have a ranch to the south of you in Coleman County, I let a neighbor run cattle on it.
Lots to learn here.
