Not many thoughts on this entry other than thank God it wasn't road work entries. [Don't look at me like that. You know you were thinking that.] Anywho. Because I didn't grow up on a farm I really had no idea that ones livestock had to be kept up with so much. I mean, I knew ranches have to remember where they put their herds and such. [I *am* from Texas after all.] But I imagine with all you had to do in a day, it'd be handy to make a notation about who was born when and where you put them out to pasture. Could you imagine if you didn't? Where the hell did I put that colt?
