[QUOTE="Victoria, post: 187651, member: 1258"] I was raised out here with lots of cattle. At 17 after finishing high school I left here and went to another ranch while getting my Marketing degree. Got out of school just as all the marketers were getting laid off - typical. :roll: So I got a job in retail, was a manager of a store and stayed there for a few years. The only thing I had to do with cows during those years was for castrating and preg testing days. Then I got really sick. Doctors didn't know what was wrong with me and I moved home. I quit my job and it happened to be calving season and there happened to be one cow that was paralyzed after calving. She became my project and we did get her back up over a week later. I also was helping my mother with the rest of calving. I was loving it and couldn't believe I'd ever left. Then my mother asked if I just wanted to stay and help. So I did. I also found someone who could finally cure my health problems. When I got married we moved to a small town that is about 20 minutes from the ranch and then last year we were able to build a house out here. Last year we also got into the purebred Red Angus and we're having a great time with that. I'm growing up my own herd now as well. I love this place and I love working with cattle. I hated the city. I'm very thankful that God brought me back here and hope I never have to leave again Interesting post aplumnt. Hope more people answer. [/QUOTE]
