West Texas | Nope, not a good report. Still up from where I was. Got our first hard freeze this past Monday morning so cotton harvest had to stop for a couple of days. The first few days after a freeze the bark on the cotton stalks rubs off real easy and stains/contaminates the cotton. But we're back at it now. With a little luck we'll finish by Christmas. Katy and Andrew both had birthdays this week (Monday) and then Friday was our 31st anniversary. Andrew had to be on call Thursday and couldn't leave so we stayed home. Was supposed to have gone to Katy's sister's at Levelland ( 90 miles from here) but since Andrew couldn't leave we stayed home too. He didn't find that out until noon Wednesday so it was too late to thaw out a turkey. So I smoked a small brisket on Thursday for Thanksgiving. Katy fixed a potato bake dish and green bean casserole. So we ate good either way. Was going to fry a turkey today and have her Dad come over but Katy had been feeling kind of poorly for the last 2 days so we cancelled that. Deer season was this week too here in our county but we never got a chance to go hunt and we haven't seen any deer on the place we hunt. Ok, bored you enough. Take care. |
