I didn’t have a lot lined up for this Saturday, but I had plenty to do. The weather was supposed to be nice and they were right. I took care of some rat killing during the AM. Watched a bit of “McClintock” while I was eating lunch. Then went out to work on some goats.
I then had a completely un-expected visitor pull into my drive. A friend of mine that I hadn’t seen in years….Monte Sharp. A great American. The laugh was the same, he looked good, acted good and seems to be doing good. This guy knows livestock. He was on a national champion OSU livestock judging team. I used to help his daughters with their show pigs and that only resulted in a bunch of breed & res. breed champions at OKC and Tulsa and maybe a res. grand market hog at the American Royal. This made my day seeing an old partner in crime. And yes, there is some humour in that last statement.
This morning, I told my lovely bride to get us movie tickets for the 4:30 matinee. I was rushed to get there in time, but I am dang glad that I did. Duke, Tammy and I went to see “American Sniper”. Is it good? No, it is great. Maybe the single best movie that I have ever seen. For two hours, the theater was silent, glued to the screen. Everybody, I mean everybody sat all the way through the credits. Absolute great story, great acting, great directing. Women will love this movie. Guys will love it. Duke loved it.
As you can see, I have had a great Saturday. I hope you did to. And guess what? There is a chance for greatness on Sunday.
