[SIZE=3]A look of horror in their eyes as a production crew got out of the fancy BMW SUV down at my big set of corrals today. The huge compost pile in the middle of the big lot, the broken poles with metal panels wired up to cover the holes. They wanted to know where the cows were, I said down in the meadows pointing to the dark spots. I did say I had a couple cows need doctored but didn’t really want them on film with their swollen up foot they each had. I then shook a bucket and the horses came out of the loafing shed, they came over to them and even let them pet them realizing there were no catch ropes and that they didn’t really understand horses. They looked at the old homestead house the roof all caved in from last winter’s snow and I hear them say well maybe we can have him saddle a horse and we can catch the vista to the east. I chipped in and said my thought for the person’s photo op to help me place a rail road tie post. I lead them over to the other corral where I was digging and pulling out a broken rail road tie that used to hold a gate and a panel of pole going up into the loading chute. Another look of horror, to which I said ranch work in not always livestock, I then pointed down the road to my other corrals and said “There some replacement and few feeder lambs I feeding there if you want livestock, the person can feed them some grain’’. To which came you got “baby Lambs” I said” yes they are about 100lbs and just weaned”. This time there was just a faraway look. They reminded me that they will be by with 4 to 5 vehicles tomorrow anywhere between 2:30 and 4:00, my thought was why bother I got the feeling everything done here will just end up on the cutting room floor.[/SIZE]

Oh.

I just got reminded of all the times I had urban relatives visit, and while they watch me do some less glamorous chore someone would pipe up with "If I lived here, I'd be out hiking." "If I lived here, you wouldn't be able to get me off a horse." "When are you going to do some cowboy stuff?"

Do you think the visitors you had will get "it?" Or will they get some pictures and think it's all about the hype they hoped for?

Dang! I know what THAT is. And here I've been for the past 6 hours trying to figure out what a "lamb cow" was. I didn't think they'd crossed cattle with sheep yet.
