some asshat stole my new sign

12. they have a program

to cost share on new fence along county roads. I stalled for a long time because of the access issue, but finally caved because the traffic up there was just getting insane and stuff was getting hit and I was starting to worry about somebody getting killed so I applied to get the fencing supplies (and we would provide the labor). Of course they lost the first app then turned me down when I sent the second. Apparently our little section of that road was never legally deeded to the county. I threatened to put a toll booth up there I dropped it for other more important issues for a couple years. I mean the thing had been there and was open range for at least 50 years. (and it is really only about a 1/3 of a mile)

Finally one day one of the neighbors who actually lives closer to that road called and was all pissed at me because of the garbage in the above mentioned wash. He had hired some guy to go clean it up (our property!) well, that kind of freaked me out as I try to be a good neighbor, but picking up trash along a road I rarely see is low on my priority list. I sent an e-mail to our County supervisor and said the neighbor has hired somebody to clean up trash, can we at least get a waiver for the dump, told him my troubles with the fence program and asked if there was anything he could do. He replied he would see what he could find out. Next think I knew there was a work crew up there on a weekend clearing brush and setting posts. They worked two weekends and got that all in then came a couple weeks later and set the cattle-guard.

Bulls will walk through a wire fence like it was a spiderweb when they are motivated, but a good tight sharp one will hold most if there isn't too much temptation on the other side. I have one young one I caught out on the road the other day that jumped back in when I tried to take him to the gate so they can go over as easy as through one for that matter.

I like him but he has now been confirmed to have jumped two fences, so he may need to go bye-bye before he gets in trouble. this is him, George. (heh, walking along a cross fence that is being rebuilt/repaired by my son - who really needs to get that loose wire off the ground and out of the trail)
