Is this real?

Nothing Can Stop What Is Coming

Our nurse cow had her calf! My sister had to chain the little one as he was a big boy and a tight fit! Elsie later accepted a twin too...one less calf to mix a bottle for morning and evening. A Jersey, Elsie is a former dairy animal and has lots of fatty milk for orphans. Raising two a year is the norm and they are most often a twin kicked off by its mom. 1/19

The prickly pear is blooming in South Texas! Red is not very common. Love it here!

The boss lady leading 2 nurse cows and 6 orphans with feed! Beautiful day!

Close up of a gopher snake I found near the shed! Little longer than 5 feet. It caused me to pause just a minute! 4/29/19

Rolling blackouts, in our case 36 hrs w/o electricity, left us w/o water for cattle. SO using a generator, a sump pump, and buckets we hauled water to cattle. It was an all day affair for 3 days. Sid Miller for Texas Governor.

A grower delivered 40-plus melons to every Church in town! I love small farming towns! My parents got one too! I'm sure whatever grocery chain he was growing for decided they didn't want them. So the grower instead of dumping them to rot parceled them out! God bless him and his back!

Mesquite tree beans. A fall food source for animals.

Been there done that..it will happen again!

Dude I'm glad you're posting your life! A lot of us just reblog someone else's. Texas is the greatest State!

I’ve decided that in the spring of 2019 I will start my custom landscape company. We will build ponds, waterfalls and fire pits. I honestly believe I can double my current salary within two years.

It will give me chance to spend more time at home and possibly never drive more than 20 a miles raduis to make a living. I plan to start a facebook page and pay the advertisement to get me to around 200,000 followers. The population in my area of Texas doubles every ten years. I could be doing a couple million a year by then. This venture will set me free slaving in an office 50+ hrs a week on top of a 13 hour a week long distance commute. I may even build a giant green house at the ranch and start growing all of my own flowers that I will definitely be using like these this year below.
