Granny's gone and done it again

Now if you wanted to see something funny, you should have seen us trying to round up three pigs we were selling! Had a real pig rodeo. Husband was chasing them around the pond, neighbor was trying to get them in the pen, and i was trying to lasso them! I got one roped around the leg but i could tell it was not going to hold. So i grabbed it by the leg. That thing dragged me 20 yards before someone showed up to help. At that point i sat right on that sows back and she quit struggling. We had built a ramp up to the back of my pick up truck, and husband said no cleats were needed for traction. So we poured feed on the ramp but the pig could not climb up. We pushed her up, and threw feed in and went to get another pig. By then the first pig ate all the feed and got out. Ended up lifting those pigs over the closed back of the truck to put them in. Took three of us, giving it all we had. I bet if there were cleats on that ramp all three of them would have gone up. Wrong again, dear!

I had something like that last fall when my brother was "helping" with Wagoner, his halter slipped and was all "wonky" ran the calves (now yearlings) thru the chute , brother grabs the halter and away they go. Brother hanging by halter and being dragged by Wagoner and also getting his crotch stepped on my Wagoner, I am laughing so hard I can't get over real fast to help. So wagoner finally stop and brother hug/bull dogs Wagoner to the ground only the Calf is on TOP of brother. We finally got the halter off couple more foot prints on brother and things were good.
