I remember doing that a few hundred times.Usually in the dead of night,winter and knee deep water,they always know the worst times to get hung up.
Ugh! At least it wasn’t cold. I’d draw the line at that, Darin.
Looks more fun than mine.
Muchmuchmuchmuch more, Mawm. definitely.
Is that you on the end of the rope…on the left side of course?
Yeah, you can tell, Cad–beef cattle don’t wear hats.
@KG:
…also, cows don’t wear WHITE shirts.
That’s what I like about Aussies – you guys dress up even when you do hard manual labor.
During WW II, one of my uncles, a U.S. Army infantryman, ran into Aussie troops somewhere near Tunis in North Africa during 1943 – and the front line troops moving up to relieve the American soldiers and attack the German positions were clean shaven and wearing dress uniforms with ties.
So my uncle asked an Aussie officer if his troops were on parade or fighting a war?
The captain said, “Well, it’s like this Yank, if we die, we die well dressed.”
And we won’t mention the expensive Italian denim jeans, Ronbo.
Like my mother always told me, “Ronald, always dress well and have on clean underwear…just in case you get run over by a car.”
It’s official! I’m a card carrying member of the National Rifle Association – and the last three digits in my member number are 007.
At least that’s what I’m telling Homeland Security.
What’s the bluey thing top right? Was it used for an earlier attempt at recovery?
Just some old mine conveyor belt, jonno1. It’s used a lot out here to line the lower level of cattle yards. (stops them running into the rails and wires).
Of course. Silly me.
Bovines are some strange creatures,they have little or no depth perception.That’s why cattle guards work,they can’t tell if it’s solid ground or not.I used to work on a Dairy farm that only had a series of white stripes painted on the asphalt instead of an iron grate.It worked just as good,so long as the paint didn’t get too worn out by tires passing over it.
They also find their way home like Pigeons.We sold some one year and hauled them to the stockyards 45miles away.About three weeks later two of them showed up back at the farm.They had jumped the corral fence at the yard and escaped into the woods.Somehow they found their way home through the creek bed all the way back.Crazy critters they are.
