Post A Photo, A Real Photo

We lived in Camarillo for quite a while. But don't miss it. I do miss the beach, though, but it was closed often enough for some type of contamination or another.

From the open space area the butts up against our back yard. The second picture, with the layer of clouds immediately over the mountains that abruptly ends and then has smaller fluffy clouds above it - that is wild. Never seen that before.

It's sooo sad that Brutus can't find a peaceful spot to relax.

Well, sure, relative to his age, she is indeed a child. But I didn't know that child support laws actually worked this way.

Yeah, he needs to be on here wailing about how much life sux.
In all seriousness, it is wonderful to see someone finally getting paid back for decades of hard work.

 

[Bacpacker]

I agree. Looking forward to that myself

Those are gorgeous pics, @havasu . Love the scenery. And the lights are very cool too.
One of these days I need to visit California again. Would have to get Mom to go and have a friend feed the animals though.
I was looking through old pics on my computer. Found this one of when a wild-looking boar (that was someone's pet) paid us a visit

This was a random house in Guam. I think it may have belonged to one of my dad's co-workers but am not certain.

Those colorful cylinders are made using 900 wine bottles in each pillar, then fiber optic lights into each bottle. Since this display is in the center of wine country, I guess it is all a theme.

Cotton field?

Cotton field?

Yep, about 170 acres in this one field. Funny, it ends at the walmart. I could see the corner from the walley parking lot. I went searching for a way around. Found some gravel roads... Plant hunting Time! Once a few more leaves fall I'll search those roads.

Some of my girls from 2012... The big pine was one of my favorite trees, over 70ft tall. Was killed by lightening not long after this picture.

Here's the pine from another angle. Lightening had split the tree down the ground.

Great lookin stock.
Looks like Charlois's. Where did the Hereford calves come from?

We lost a couple cows during birthing, calves were too big. Switched from Charolais to a Hereford bull. Had smaller calves but they grew out faster.

Both of these were great bulls, gentle as lambs. The big Charolais... I could walk out in the pasture at night and call him... He'd walk up and put his giant head against my chest... he liked having his ears scratched.

 

[Bacpacker]

Both are very nice lookin bulls.
One of my uncles raised Herefords. I always liked them. Never really had any problems with them.

A rare piebald deer traipsing through a yard in the western part Rapid City, SD.

"Animals called “piebald” have a pigmented background of hair, scales, or feathers with a unique pattern of white (unpigmented) spots. This condition is called piebaldism and refers to the absence of melanocytes (mature melanin-forming cells) in specific skin and hair areas."

The hereford bull produced great calves and a bunch of twins. I think we had 6/7 sets born in 18 months.

But, even though he was gentle I never trusted him like i did the Charolais bulls we had (several). I always felt he could turn on me in a second even though he never gave a hint that he might. I just never felt relaxed around him.

Unsure where to put these, war era posters from 1917/18. Some for recruiting, some for war bonds, some for industry. All are art so here will do… feel free to move admin...
