View from the cheap seats this morning

Thought some enjoy
Coming to a grill near u soon

Nothing cheap about that picture, especially this year.

Gain, gain, gain fellas!

Feedin' time!
I hope you score a tidy profit off of each of them.

I agree the cattle and the feed are both sky high. Nice pic haven’t seen wood bunks in a long time

good looking animals

Is for the farmers, the payment at the packer is not much more then it was a couple years ago but store cost is getting painful, I have taken to buying direct from the farmers

Fajitas!!!!

Si!

Finished the day fighting an uncontrolled grass fire. Got help from a big draw that didn't have much grass. If we had got it stopped there it might of went for 20 miles. It jumped one highway.

We seen it from my place, I knew you was close to its path. Glad it got controlled.
