Location: Under The Big Sky Of Texas | EqualRanch - 2015-03-30 11:11 PM SouthTX, I'm so jealous!! We don't have any bluebonnets or wild flowers around us, yet. We hauled a few loads of cattle down to Floresville last week and it was absolutely beautiful down there!
LOL, we had a good Spring once again with it being such a wet winter, last year was a good one too. But we know its going to be a pretty Spring when we get lots of rain during winter. There's been a few Springs without the wild flowers with the drought and super dry winters. I havent been to Floresville yet this spring but I bet its looking good too.  | |

Location: Got Lobsta? | Herbie - 2015-03-31 10:45 AM Kaycee....it's about that time, isn't it! I think I shall start back on my wild man here in a couple of weeks then i'll be ready. Been riding mom's big yella horse, so he'll be ready for her if she wants to, and then it's time to find us a can chasing or two! I need it to be on the second and fourth weekends if possible! HAHA
Total Performance, your kiddos are about to show us that they are official race horses! Today is the day for the Hank-ster! Run Hank Run!!!!!!
Bibs, wow, those flowers are gorgeous! I know that has to make you smile every time you go outside!
Mainer.....all I can say is I am so sorry! I don't know how you northerners handle it! I would definitely have to invest in a tanning bed just to get some warmth and sun! LOL Come on down to Texas....we've got mosquitos big as birds right now, but at least it's warm!
Funny you should say that! A friend of mine and I had to go get her horse in Texas last April. So I'm hit with GORGEOUS weather and don't want to leave. However.....I had to change into my barn shoes so I get out of the car, take off my shoes and grab the boots from the trunk. It wasn't even a 30 second switch out and we get trolling along and I feel something in my boot. Take it off.....nothing.....2 minutes later.....I feel something so I take MY HAND place it in the boot and a bug the size of a small pteradactle bird comes flying out! Needless to say I screamed like a monkey, my friend almost went off the road. THAN that night my first tornado warning. IT WAS ON EVERY SINGLE CHANNEL!!! I thought it was armageddon! I called the hotel to see if I needed to go to a safe room and they just said.."you are not from around here are you?" I think I'll take the snow! You southern people are tough! | |
