I did see momma cow the other day. I had gone out to check water and salt. I decided I was going to drive around and find her. It really didn't take long. I saw a couple of red cows and drove toward them. Nope, wasn't her. Started off toward a road that would take me toward the east, then I spotted a bronco faced red cow. I drove toward her. She was alone, coming in for water. I got next to her and rolled down the window. I said "hey momma" and she stopped looked at me and I said "is you baby with the sitters?" and she looked back over her shoulder in the direction she had just come from. I then said "sure wanted to see baby" and she continued on. We done did have a conversation. She had no signs of infection and her bag had recently been drank from.
I told Steve about it when I caught up with him at the big mill and all he could say was that I need to write for Disney. Well if telling the truth is enough for a Disney story then scoot over I am on my way to stardom.
I went out on Friday morning to dig up loco weed. Got to the location around 6:30 am. Decided that I would take the road by the dead cow and clean it all the way to the east fence. I started out fine but as time passed the winds really picked up. Got to where I would pop a plant loose and it would start tumbling away. I didn't need all those seeds going anywhere before I could put them in a gunny sack so I called it a day and did the water and salt routes.
That was 3 bags in just over and hour. I got a forth bag before I had to stop. Not bad for a short morning.
Anyone bored can come and help. I did one mile and there is only 4 or so to go.
