I put some black angus steers out on the pasture one year years ago and sold them to my uncle's feed lot. On a per head basis I made 25 bux a head. On an hourly basis I was making about a dollar an hour. Between fixing fence and chasing spooked cattle that got out, decided it was more trouble than it was worth. Storms and this pipeline flying plane always spooked them. I watched that plane fly over and they took off running and jumped a 4 strand barbed wire fence.

Alerted the sheriff and got a call the next day. They had run 8 miles south and ended up at a farm at the fence next to his cattle. He let them in and then we had to haul them back. One got out another time and ended up over at the neighbor's pasture with his cattle. Tried to rope him, pen him, and nothing worked. Neighbor said to leave him till he loads them up.
