Drive-by Posting and some Bull

11/01/07 - 5th Day - After Supper. We had a great Sabbath and Lord's Day, and I have been working off the property with Kelly and Liviu this whole week. The temps have been up near 80 during the day, and right around 40 or so at night - which is nice. We have been working at siding the cabin for a vacation rancher up north of Lake Brownwood. We finished the siding yesterday and today we began working inside the cabin. We quit work at about 12:30 today and after that Danielle and our wives came out to help us clean up before the owner comes home this evening.

In the community we are still reading John Bunyan's book Holy War - we should be on Chapter 3 tonight. Once again, I highly recommend it.

Today Elder David went and picked up Qitachon, the bull we are going to be using this year. I have 4 cows and heifers to be "serviced" - Bonita and Lucia my full-blooded Longhorns, and Maria and Pita my mixed Longhorn/Watusi cattle. Next year I should have those four (DV) to breed and Cholula and Mariana as well. This will be our last year using Quitachon. He is a good bull, and he has given us some great calves from last year. I think the one we are supposed to get for next fall is named Pilancio, and we got to take a look at him and he is a really great looking bull.

I have to run, reading is coming up quick.

May the Lord bless you all,

Michael
