Thank you! I had no idea there was a community of people of such kindness and of like interest. Really great! One of my favorites is a young EE cross rooster. His cockerel (Copper Sex Link x EE tan partridge hen w/good P&B) X hen ( Buff Orpington x Copper Sex Link) x EE hen also tan partridge with good P&B.

Sorry had to take the pups out. Actually Australian Shephards getting up there in years. One is 14 and has trouble now with a lot of things, other one 10 1/2 and I see hip issues on the horizon but he still acts like a puppy and wants to play. Wow really small world. Did you ever live up here in this area? I have a twin and he’s been back up here since the late 80s and raised a family up here and they went to Three Way. He’s rancher pretty big time with registered Black Angus. Mom and Dad are still alive and coming up on 89 yrs old and also live down the highway about 7 miles putting them 3 miles from the border. I don’t know if you read my blog on new members thread but a lot of info is there. We went to Littlefield elementary and Whiteface Middle School. Before moving to Abilene where we graduated HS. I made it to A&M for Horticulture department only and then of course was died in the wool Maroon! My spouse and I bought a home up here to move to the country which was our dream. Both of us raised on cattle ranches. Made since because I had family, some land and some cattle already. But we lost the 10 yr battle with lung cancer, that had moved to brain and bone aggressively and passed away shortly after buying the home, Dec 27, 2017. Everyone said that I had to finish our dream and so here I am after 40 years in Dallas . So Working in small steps for a rebuilt life. The tiny “town things” near are Maple, Goodland, which I bull dozed most of it, and Enochs . It’s prairie but I do enjoy the peace.

Sorry to hear about your DW, that's a tough loss. :hugs
No never lived out that way but my great great grandfather bought 12 sections of land when the Farwell brothers were breaking up/ selling the XIT ranch, so the state could build the capital building.
Blackwater Draw runs through the middle of the farm. I still have some of my family that live out there...the Booth family. The farm is on the National Registry of Historic Sites...it's been continuously farm and owned by my family since 1905.
