Still sitting at my desk for 10-12 hours on most days banging on this computer. We're just west of Morgan Mill or as I say 25 miles north of the Walmart in Stephenville. Enjoy the wooded rolling hills quite a bit. Love that part of Texas where you were . . and that cross of cattle you raised. Driving down 16 one morning at sunrise going south I told my wife I wouldn't mind having a few sections down there and I'd keep the gate locked except on Sunday when we went to church.
We raise racing-bred Quarter Horses. I proved to myself several years ago that I can lose more money on them than I can on cattle. Wc currently have 6 mares (5 with babies this year), three yearlings, two geldings and a jack to keep us busy.
Have a good day. And thanks for listening. Maybe some day when I am in Fort Worth we can hook up.
Will be back on the tractor in a day or two and will think of you and that good view you have of the best part of one of the best towns anywhere.

Oh yeah, did the locked gate thing! Our home/barn complex was about a half mile back in the woods from the farm to market road and a mile or two from any other home. Trouble was the Fort Hood choppers flew around the hills we were in to practice hiding from the enemy and then pounce.

One of my daughters was picking up big round bales of hay and after stabbing one, turned around to see a big troop transport chopper about to land in front of her. She was so startled her foot slipped off the clutch and the tractor lurched forward right under the chopper.

Said she could see lots of faces peering at her out the windows - maybe she shouldn't have worn her bikini that day...

Made me laugh. I have a similar story involving me in a convertible and a jet fighter on Hwy 16 at the Colorado River crossing some 40 years ago.

They never miss an opportunity do they? Nice shot.

That was just up the road a piece from where we lived. Between the towns of San Saba and Goldthwaite. We were east of there in Nix Texas. Seems like that bridge had a real erosion problem at one end about 25 years ago, almost fell down.
