Thank you, gardeners, for lovingly growing all those Warted Hubbard squashes, Arkansas traveler tomatoes, greasy beans, country gentleman corns, and drunken woman frizzy-headed lettuces.

Here are a few pics from this spring. I haven't had time to get the drone in the air when it hasn't been overly windy. I hope to get some drone pics soon. Ended up spraying round-up on the cover crop mixture hoping to only kill out the barley and keep most of the vetch and peas. Didn't work as well as we'd like. There's a couple of pics of what it would have looked like had we not sprayed it at all. I apologize for having to rotate your phone/computer monitor as I'll have to remember to take horizontal pictures with my phone for the photos that I post here.

Look at those hands, no way farming_cat isn't at least 6'2, probably more like 6'5.

I was just thinking that farming_cat might have missed his calling as a professional hitchhiker.

Who is ready for my dad's play by play of the fawn hanging out at the cat ranch front yard today?

"Tahzee watching the fawn just now outside the kitchen window."

"Satellite dish to the right.  Lil guy put his head down ran darting right through the sprinkler - playing.  Paused, head down again, ran back to starting point, then on into the tree line."

My brother thought maybe he could keep it as a pet but according to my dad the game warden will come and blast it away if that happens

@sys what kind of snake do you think this was based off the description.

"2nd brick Crack up from the ground by the bucket.  Big Ole Smooth Green snake was coming out, saw me, went back in.  Harmless, but you'd mess your pants if shoveling ash out when he came out.  Do not kill him - he's harmless.  Need him to eat rodents."

Family friend had a pet deer when I was a kid. The mother died somehow. I have pictures with it. It was cool and then I think it became a dick when it became an adult deer.

We had a tame fawn on our ranch. It would still come around and hang out near people when it was older.

Is this a photo or a watercolor painting of the scene?

I have no idea about how much water a 100,000 head feedlot needs but what are they gonna do for water in 20/30 years?

"The project still has some hurdles. It needs to obtain some nearby irrigated farm ground and “retire” at least six center-pivot irrigation systems to obtain enough water to supply the feedlot. The Upper Republican Natural Resources District would have to approve such a water swap."

bioengineered beef that require less water, like gmo crops. 20/30 years is like a million years irl.

Just have to bridge the gap until we can buy premium cuts of meat cloned and grown in labs.

I keep staring at it and I still haven't seen the snake. I think its a where's waldo type drawing and Benji's dad forgot to draw the snake part.
