I had 4 golf carts at my gate a little while ago... (city folks ... No offence to the city folk here but they cracked me up. :lolsmash
It kind of went like this ...
City folk 1, "Hope you don't mind us watching your animals."
Me, "No, go ahead and watch all you want."
City folk 2, "What you going to do with all the bulls?"
Me, "Well, we have 1 bull and 4 cows in this pasture." I then told them which was the bull and pointed out the cows. (And the calf.)
City folk 1, "Cows don't have horns, do they?"
I tried to tell them many "cows" have horns, and that we had Texas Longhorns and both bull and cow had horns. Both city folk 1 and 2 looked surprised.
City folk 1, "I guess you can tell I'm from the city (D.C.)... lol ... What kind of goats do you have?" City folk 1 pointing to the sheep.
Me, "Well, those are sheep." I then went on to tell them about the Jacob sheep and then pointed to the goats in a different pasture and told them about my goats.
City child 1 (about 7, whom had her own little golf cart and was cute as a button) got a little upset when I told her she could not go in and play with the boar hog in his mud puddle. I did try to explain why ... but she thought he was cute
and having to much fun.
After about an hour the city folks said they needed to go ... but hoped I didn't mind them stopping by to watch the animals, while they were here.
I told then it was fine ... and made a point to tell City child 1 and 2 (and their parents) about the hot wire inside the hog lot ... City child 1 wants in the lot in a bad way ... :gaah:
I love it when folks ask questions about the animals ... and to be honesy City child 1 will have a pig one day. lol
