Yes, I know about Ann Barnhardt. Have read her stuff for about a year.

The issue in cattle is that you have to feed them if you don't have pasture. We elected not to pore the money into them and sold during the drought. Rainfall is better now, but not great. And it is spotted not general rains.

We have been occupied dealing with illness of family members. That takes priority.

My brother has a cattle ranch (also here in Texas) and last August or so, sold his whole herd of over 400 head. He is not going to buy more cattle for the time being.

I’m so sorry to hear about illness among your relatives. My dad has alzheimers, so I know about the worries that accompany that.

We had an inch of rain today. Two inches in the past two days. Too bad we can’t send some of this Pacific Northwest rain in Texas’ direction. Maybe you’ll soon get a break from that storm that formed in the Gulf.

Good luck and God bless.
