Carter Cattle Company

I'm back. Younger yelled at me for not updating, so here I am. Not much to report. Chickens have pretty much dried-up, but they usually do around this time of year. We leave this Saturday for a week in Las Vegas (Lost Wages). Come back next Saturday. Younger is supposed to feed the critters while we are gone. He better get over to the house and meet the dogs before we leave. He only has tonight and Friday. I have to mow at Inks on Thursday evening. Time to let the garden go. It's just about quit on us, anyway. When I get back, I'll till it under for next year. Fresh veggies are so much better tasting than the stuff you get in the store that was picked green and shipped half way around the world, with who-knows-what sprayed on it. The place is still high and dry. "They" are talking about an El Nino, man do we need it. Well, my quasi-vacation will be over, soon. My boss comes back off sick leave on the 17th. Things have been running SO smooth! Jesus, I wish I could retire. Brent just laughs and says "Better you than me that has to put up with him!" Deb's dad goes to Austin on Thursday for a pacemaker and defibrilator implant. She'll go in to be with him and her sister will come down from Corpus, as well. I probably won't have another update until we return from Vegas. Ya'll take care and pray for rain. Rick
