This was a month ago. I posted it on my Facebook page, but its to good to not retell. Its the honest truth!!
Anybody ever notice that when you make a conscious effort to do a serious Bible study, weird things happen? Lisa Weber and I have really been trying to spend a few minutes, each day in the Word. WELL, today, I branded and hauled our new Longhorn Heifers across the river. Not 5 minutes after I walked in the door, neighbor Brett, stops and says your 2 freshly branded Longhorns are headed up the river hill. Horses are all out to pasture, so we think we can get 2 measly little heifers back a half mile with the Gator, and 4-wheeler. NOPE one went through neighbor Don's yard. 2 laps around his house, with me in HOT pursuit with the 4 wheeler, and she bales the 4 wire fence back onto us. No biggy, leave her there and put the other one in the same pasture. NOPE, well sorta. Baled the fence by the dump, but headed north FAST. I get around her and point her east. After 2 fences, she is over in neighbor Jim's. I give up. Go up and tell Jim I have a heifer on him, and will get her out after she calms down. WHICH IS WHAT I SHOULD HAVE DONE!!!!!!!! Weather is supposed to be getting like winter this week, so while I am sitting there talking to Jim, I see my heifer still headed east at a lope. By this time she is well over a mile from where I left her. I am still thinking I can just let her calm down and go after her in a day or so. WELLL NRCS man Casey is out doing what all federal employees do on a nice day. He is out driving around with his little GPS thingy. Anyway Casey calls and says, Ya know that nice red and white Longhorn heifer that was out on the highway? Well she is now over on neighbor Rick's ground, but is pretty calm. He says, Rick is shipping his cows home today, and I'll bet if you take a horse over that way, that nice little heifer will head towards his cows. Shoulda come in and done more bible study. I hook Lisa's pickup up to our new fancy little trailer, go catch my horse, and HERS. Come back get saddled up, haul over to neighbor Ricks. Ride a couple hours, finally see the DEVIL. Horns out, breathing fire. Well dripping blood out her mouth. I sneak around the edge of the canyon as Lisa goes back to open the gate. About the time I see Lisa coming back, and have a good idea where I need to end up to be on the right side of the heifer. POOF she is gone!! NO STINKING CLUE WHERE she is, nor do I really care. Neighbor Jim calls about then, and says he found this nice looking little black and white Longhorn in our pasture. Long story short, right at dark she is headed the same direction the red one went!!
And now a month later, they are both over at neighbor Shawn's place. When it isn't so icy, and my collar bone gets healed up, I WILL get them home!!
