Late Afternoon Cattle Drive
We spent a long weekend in Ft. Worth and caught this 4pm daily cattle drive in The Stockyards. The day before had been a lovely sunny and 75, but a cold front took it down to freezing that night, and folks were bundled up in scarves and hoodies.
This guy led the drive down the cobblestone street.
That solid longhorn (in beautiful burnt orange!) made me laugh, because he kept nudging the cow in front of him with his horns.
It only lasted a few minutes, but it was hard not to want to step out and touch them.
Big Hoss brought up the caboose, and then it was over. Afterward, we got some old-time bottled soda and meandered through the shops. A fun way to round out the twilight hours. But this sign did catch my editor’s eye and caused me to grimace.

Holiday At The Ranch
Moo.
Ranches have cattle.
Cattle needs to be fed.
Ranches have goats. Goats don’t like to stick around for your camera lens.
Dogs take their chances on the cattle guards.
You might see a cardinal or an armadillo.
And on a clear day, you can see forever.
