Lazy day today. Slept in this morning then the gf and I went to lunch and stopped at a local farm stand on the way home. Picked up some michigan peaches, apples, some pickles, and more maters.


Welcome back Davey!

There is just something simple and honest about working with cattle. If I won the lotto thats all I would do, build Dodges and work cattle. I just love it. No new calves yet though, got three about to drop.

A fine Sunday afternoon to the gang. Gorgeous out here today, warm but gorgeous. Heading for the pool as soon as I hang up the phone here. Good church this morning, out to din din with a beautiful blonde - - man, life is good.

Hey Mad - - you better come down here about March next year. I will take you out to the pass to catch shrimp. Catch the outgoing tide in the evening, anchor the boat and hang a lantern over the side. Put a big (spelled BIG) pail in the middle of the boat and work both sides with nets. You watch for the shining eyes in the lantern and dip them suckers out. We will fill a 50 gallon pail in no more than an hour with very large shrimp. Ummm yum.

Grabbing some ph00 and out of here - - hope for some rain, Stan - -we are getting our share this month - - wow, 5 inches two days ago in about 2 hours. Rain everyday for two weeks now - - slight drizzle this morning but bright and sunny right now. Gonna go get in it. See ya,

Bob

Yep. I spent many an hour on horseback, just me and the cattle. I'm also glad that I don't do that for a living. I also worked them twice a year, not to mention all the friends we helped out. Always got some good prairie oysters...

Yeah, I tried that today. No love. I dumped them in at low tide, and started throwing. I switched sides, and they picked up a little, but the most I got at once was 5. I probably got at least a hundred for almost 3 hours of pulling.

Man, if I'm still in the states around that time, I might take you up on it. It's been years since I've been to Sarasota, we used to always go once a year and stay at the 'Sara sea circle'.

They're really not running here yet, maybe another month. I've been working to get a bunch since Chris is coming down next weekend. Want to treat him right...

Hey, Bob, you have a Porsche? What year? Does it get it, or is it just fun to drive? I've ruined a few guy's days that were driving them...

Afternoon, DTR. Just got back from the dock, caught a little better than a hundred. Gonna freeze them in a bit.

Gonna clean up and maybe have a friend over. Maybe a cold one in the cards, too.

No. Those would usually come from goats on the montains. These are from fresh steers on the prairies...

I don't know if I could do goat parts or not. The steers are pretty good tho.

Be careful with them shrimp - - they are loaded with cholesterol. I now have to limit my intake to a few at a time - - likewise lobster. We have a lobster hole out about 8 miles in about 65' of water we call Heaven - - go down there and come up 1/2 hour later with your bug bag chuck full. Just can't eat them often - - not good for you.

Speaking of sea food (), I had some Prairie Oysters when I was about 20. Visited my college roommate in Colorado - - lived on a ranch - - had to go see what this "round up" stuff was all about. We went out for a couple days to where they were doing their thing with the steers - - chuck wagon there, the whole bit. A really different experience for me being a city kid - - fun.

Sarasota is a neat city. Came thru here one summer while home from college (parents were in Tampa) and said I am going to live there someday. Yep - - here I am. Very pretty town.

Pooch? I am Poochless right now - - sold my 911 to replace it and gave my hopped up 914 to my son who also has a 996. He made me so jealous with his 996 I decided I had to upgrade. I am watching for a good buy on a 996, about a 2006 or so. Love my Porsches. When I had 2 pooches plus a Z plus my daily driver, mama said that is it, big boy. At least one of them has to go. Bye bye ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Now my daugter in law is sounding like my wife - - looky buster, too many cars around here. How many Porsches do you need when you only drive one of them one day each week? Five cars for the two of them. He must have had a weird dad.

What a wonderful quiet afternoon. Nice nap on the lanai, dip in the pool, more nap on the other side - - cool ice tea, pretty blonde - - life is good.

Gonna go snack - - see yaaaaa,

Bob
