350 cows calving and the only one I am overly concerned about is the nurse cow!
3" of rain today. First rain in months. My cousin (and neighbor) took this picture of a rattlesnake climbing out of a mesquite tree hollow. Not your everyday experience. 11/29/20
The boss lady leading 2 nurse cows and 6 orphans with feed! Beautiful day!
Major Alaa Waheeb, the IDF’s most decorated Muslim soldier who received the Minister of Defense’s Medal of Excellence - “To those who say that Israel is an apartheid state, I ask: Do you think that such a country would tolerate a person like myself getting to the position I am today?… a non-Jewish army Major? Someone who has not only fought alongside Jewish soldiers, but now trains them too? Would a truly racist state allow me to play such an integral role in our nation’s defenses? I do not serve in the army to kill people – I serve in it to save people. When Hamas fires rockets, or Fatah encourages stabbings, we are here to protect the lives of all Israeli citizens, Jewish and non-Jewish… In my role as a soldier, I have met all kinds of people both in Israel and the Palestinian territories. Jews, Arabs, Religious, secular, left-wing and right-wing… forget slogans and shouting. Peace – real peace – will only come when people talk to each other.”

Fenceline weaning the home herd... about 90 mamas. Calves 7 to 8 months old. Dry and running out of grass.
The rare and shy Angus-o-potamus! Dang hot in south Texas. Hope everyone around is getting rain.
The agave loved all the rain in April! Blooming beautifully all over the ranch! Not native to this part of south texas we transplanted. Researched aquamiel production and pulque making from agave. I now have a plan!
Dude I'm glad you're posting your life! A lot of us just reblog someone else's. Texas is the greatest State!
It will give me chance to spend more time at home and possibly never drive more than 20 a miles raduis to make a living. I plan to start a facebook page and pay the advertisement to get me to around 200,000 followers. The population in my area of Texas doubles every ten years. I could be doing a couple million a year by then. This venture will set me free slaving in an office 50+ hrs a week on top of a 13 hour a week long distance commute. I may even build a giant green house at the ranch and start growing all of my own flowers that I will definitely be using like these this year below.
Mostly photos of my life in South Texas. I share what I love. The Outdoors and Ranch Life.
