Carter Cattle Company

Hello, again. Yesterday was a beautiful day. Got a few chores done (Inks Lake, etc). The miniature hens have started laying, again. We get 1 or 2 a day. I have some boiling as we speak, for pickling purposes. Little Jackson is so cute, running around everywhere. Harriet just turns in circles, watching him. Went to a get-together with a bunch of friends last night. Everyone had a great time. Paul Nelson brought his baby, Aspen, by for a couple of hours. Of course, Debbie latched on to her until they had to go. Put her right to sleep. She is adorable. A new couple showed up, too. I knew Gayla from when she worked at the courthouse in San Saba. Her boyfriend, Anthony was real nice, too. Broke it up around 11:00PM 'cause some of them were going to play golf early today. Wind is blowing like crazy today, here. Bet it played havoc on the golf game. I need to refill the pool for the ducks, but I hate to spend much time out in the wind, due to allergies. 'Tis the season. Planned to grill a couple of steaks for supper, may have to move the grill into the barn, because of the high wind and the state wide burn-ban (which includes outdoor bar-b-que). I remember back in the old days, when it used to rain. Got some great news from my sister, Cathy. After her recent breast cancer surgery, the latest round of tests show she is cancer-free. Looks like our prayers were answered. Praise be to God! Well, better go tend to my eggs. Until next time, Rick.
