Carter Cattle Company

Life on the ranch(ette) as we know it.

Monday, May 14, 2007

Hello, sports fans. Well, I'm officially out of the donkey business. They both went to a new home, yesterday. They went to a vet that has some goats. He's gonna fix Jackson and keep him and Harriette together. Gonna miss them, but this is better than keeping them in a pen and having to feed them. Bear finally got his shots. I coaxed him into the cattle trailer with some left-over meat from the fridge and shut the door behind him. The vet just went into the trailer and gave him the vaccinations, without a hitch. Deb said Boo-Boo sat at the gate and howled until we got back. Never a dull moment around here. Deb's dad,her cousin Linda, Vanessa and Shane came out on Saturday and I BBQed some chicken, ribs and sausage. We all feasted. Vanessa and Shane spent the night and went back Sunday afternoon. She called when they got home and said it stormed on them most of the way. They even had to stop and take cover, once. I got the pasture shredded after they left. Just knocked the tops off the weeds, so the grass could grow. Looks a lot better, too. Sorry, no pictures this time. My sister, Cathy, and her husband are coming this weekend. They are on the way to Beluxi, Miss to see friends. Looks like we'll get to play some dominoes. Well, I gotta go for now. Love to all, Rick.
