As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
In the land of desperado, in being hunted by the cartel with Wanted Dade or Alive, as the sun slowly sets in the west, we visit the Good Time Ranch and find that in one day Turdy Belle can become Good Belle, as in going to check on that suffering goatikins, Daisy had vanished and or disappeared out of her pen.
TL asked me to check again, and I just could not see where Daisy could be hiding as all that was there, was 1 little Belle mooing at me in probably tattle tale verse.
Of course Daisy was out where the brown bears in dreams were running around, and that is where I spotted her, as she was just a shittin' and a gettin', to use an American phrase, for the road on the other side of the trees in the opposite direction of us calling her name.
So into the pick up TL and I jumped, with TL heading Daisy off, blocking on the road and me running like a raped ape, to use another American phrase in trying to head off the wild heifer.
I saw some tracks, so I did not know if Daisy spooked a deer or Daisy had been there and was moving back........did not know a great deal as it is hard to see in 10 foot tall weeds, with me calling Daisy and Daisy thinking that Daisy meant run the other way.
I climbed a tree or clumb a tree and found Daisy advancing back toward the house, so off I went smashing through the brier patch.......
Odd thing is, whenever you got animals out, sure as hell, here comes a damn semi and some damn neighbor kid on a junk motorcycle to chase them to hell and gone.
Daisy was already up by the place as I was herding and running to point, and here came TL up the drive to head Daisy off as we were both invisible in the woods and the Holy Ghost said "Go see if LC put the calf away"..........so things were looking up.
Odd thing about Daisy in I took care of her all winter, and she was fine, but she wanted nothing to do with me, but did like TL and treats, and after some more rodeo, TL got the rope around Daisy by the bale pile and she got persuaded to find the pen again. Then she was fed a couple more treats and gave TL a sloppy calf kiss in thanks for the good times.
I had read that Jersey's learn how to open gates.........uh huh......I had forgot that until tonight. Smart little calf there.
Any way, that was not the only rodeo as it was bot fly worming today, with the ponies and the ponies decided they were not in the mood for oral vaccines.
Odd thing about apple flavored vaccine........our horses hate the stuff as much as ropes.
We got Darby done, and turned her out......to which she tore around and raised hell....bucking, neighing, crow hopping, running....and not looking like an animal that will ever be ridden.
Libby showed me a great deal of her ass for half an hour, as I ran her off, and started the process again and again to get a rope on her.
Yeah, I shortened the pen up, and then Libby decided that a rope on her was not so bad, as she pawed the ground like a plough, and looked like she did as a wild horse the day I got her dropped off here.
Anyway, got the rope on Libs and that horse is like a plough horse with a rope on her.....unless with shots or oral vaccines......Lord she almost reared up and broke things on me.......then as I sat on the panels trying to get her to put that tube in her mouth, she was in my pocket literally being so close.....finally just kept rubbing my fingers on her mouth and got the tube in and injected it.
Yeah, apple treats she spit out with this apple vaccine on it.........must be like nutrasweet Coke in tasting like horse piss. TL fed her the exact same treats a few minuets later and she took them like an angel instead of the wild-eyed bronc buster she was just auditioning for.
So I recaught the Libby in the pen, and led her forward, and slipped the rope off of her.
It is one of those days that someone offering me a pretty penny for animals, could inherit the wind and chase after these animals, as it all turned out fine, but most people would have gotten busted up with Libby and Daisy....well she would be running for the border now if we had a mistake and Holy Angels were not riding head for us.
We did make apple crisp, so I suppose that was something good today........have not thought up a name of Daisy yet in her naughty..........Libby I just say, she has "attitude".
nuff said on this Baby Belle update as Turdy Belle was closer to Tinker Belle.....I will have to remember to comment on that tomorrow to her, as I am sure she would like that I noticed she is working on Tinker.
Might tell Daisy she is working on 4th of July, the way our turkey we call Thanksgiving is working on being the main course....until she started laying eggs and setting to redeem herself.
