Thank you Cattle Today. Its been 20 years now. 18 since my registration. Lots of great folks here. We've lost some really good ones.

Some of you folks have been extremely helpful. Some of you folks have given me a lot of chuckles through the years.

Thank you ! It aint the website. Its the people.
 
I have some very good friends that I never would have known if not for Cattle Today. Even that weird talking Canadian. I buy bulls from Simme, visit clinchvalley86 often and try to tell him the right thing to do, talk to some almost daily, have met a lot of people at the National Farm Machinery Show and had lunch. Lost a few that i considered very good friends over the years.
 
Time flies!!! I sometimes wonder about the people that just stop posting for no apparent reason.
There is usually reason. Too many good ones here to just completely quit. Sometimes you just read. Loss of members like Dun have impact too. I have been blessed to meet a few outside of the forum and I have even lost contact with some of them.

You must be talking about Silver…….
 
But the real question is, are coffee shops now days the same as a bunch of old guys sitting around drinking coffee at the local gas station store? The coffee shops around here are to hip for conversation better have all your I things and skinny jeans.
 
I don't care much for Black Rifle Coffees or their food items but that is where my Marine Corps League informally meets on Sunday afternoons, for coffee and checkers. (some play chess, which is above my raising) At 74, I'm among the youngest member but the conversations there are good. It's about 12 miles away in Killeen.

But, not nearly as good as the ones here at CT coffee shop.
 
Those few months I spent in south central Washington between selling out on the coast and getting in here There was a cafe where 8-12 ranchers and farmers would meet every morning. Some would have breakfast and some just coffee. The county sheriff stopped in regularly. One of the county commissioners who is also a rancher would eat breakfast with us on the days when he had a meeting with the commissioners. For something to do I was helping a shirttail relative who has a ranch. That is where I would meet him every morning.
There use to be a little cafe here. I have been told that a lot of the ranchers here would meet there in the morning for coffee. They are now in the process of tearing out the old gas station and going to build a new station/truck stop/convenience store. Hopefully it has a coffee shop too.

I like the black rifle and did like the death wish but they apparently changed something.
That sounds fun.
