That’s how my last few days have been.<\/p>\n
On Thursday, I had a ZOOM meeting that lasted longer than expected. \u00a0Then I had some goat shoppers show up. \u00a0They bought a doe kid that I really didn’t want to sell\u2026but I really wanted her in good hands. \u00a0So, she got a new home that I’m excited about.<\/p>\n
I’ve got a train wreck kind of goat kid that I really like but it’s taking some work to get him over his structural issues. \u00a0Are the issues caused by him being a single MONSTER kid or are they genetic? \u00a0IDK but only a few have seen him and two want him for a buck and another wants him for a wether. \u00a0Either way, I hope he works out.<\/p>\n
On Friday, I took my gator and went to High Plains Technology Center to assist with their greenhouse sale. HOLY JEEMINY!!! \u00a0 This was an efficient work of art and my GOD, I think they sold well over $30K. \u00a0I was draggin donkey when I got home. \u00a0Good crew and for a good cause.<\/p>\n
On Saturday, the boys and I worked a set of wethers. \u00a0I Kelly clipped a March born Next Friday kid out of a first time momma. \u00a0I’m now in a good mood. \u00a0Then, we went and ate some Neubauer ribs and Greer brisket. \u00a0I’m still full.<\/p>\n
At some point, I checked the mail. \u00a0I had a package from Indiana. \u00a0A USPS envelope. \u00a0I opened it and found the regular envelope that was inside of the big envelope. \u00a0Inside that envelope was a package of Trident tropical twist gum. \u00a0WTF??? \u00a0I opened the gum to find some perfectly wrapped “gum” pieces with the payment for some semen. \u00a0UNIQUE!! \u00a0 I love it. \u00a0Well played Dude!!<\/p>\n
Sunday found me watering garden spots and then making the statement, “I’ve already got the gator loaded on a trailer, let’s go to Wolf Creek on Dad’s place and catch some fish.” \u00a0And this is where it get’s really random.<\/p>\n
I’ve caught a lot of fish out of Wolf Creek on this place in my life. \u00a0No big ones. \u00a0Just a bunch of fun. \u00a0I have caught largemouth bass, a perch or twelve and occasionally a nice channel cat. \u00a0Recently, my dad sent a pic of a crappie. \u00a0Then, my middle brother Jake and his son Jett caught some crappie. \u00a0What?<\/p>\n
Today, we got random. \u00a0We caught lots of bass (couple of 2-3 pounders), crappie, perch, a Buffalo Drum, a carp and Tammy lost a 4-5# channel cat. \u00a0 We saw some short nose gar. \u00a0And several water snakes. \u00a0Good day of catching random fish. \u00a0My goal was to catch A fish. \u00a0After that, I was in a wicked good mood.<\/p>\n
As any of you loyal readers already know, I love a good musical tune. \u00a0And I like getting texts\/calls\/emails pushing a song or artist.<\/p>\n
I got a message that said:<\/p>\n
Random Thoughts<\/p>\n
“I’m for Love” by Hank Williams Jr.<\/p>\n
Go back and re-listen to that song. \u00a0As much truth today as in 1985 when it was written. \u00a0If nothing else, you got to listen to a good tune that you had damn-neart forgot about.<\/p>\n
Thanks. \u00a0True, very true. \u00a0We forget how big of a star that HW jr was.<\/p>\n
I don’t see my brothers on a day2day basis. \u00a0And I don’t need to. \u00a0But I always look forward to the next family gathering. \u00a0There will always be some trash talking amongst us brothers and the wives get to cuss & discuss as well. \u00a0I’m just glad that my parents got it right the first time–ME–and there was enough genetic power left to make two really cool brothers. \u00a0Good job Mom & Dad!<\/p>\n
I may have had a bad dietary experience with those Xtreme HOT pickle bitez that I was bragging about. \u00a0Do not put one of these pickles on a tortilla chip, then a piece of fajita meat, then some hot salsa and then a dab of Tobasco. \u00a0It tasted REALLY good!! But the next day, I felt the heat!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
