~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Great quotes this week [MENTION=7944]dill[/MENTION]! I'm sure yours will be every bit as good [MENTION=24196]Rava[/MENTION]!

I'm not sure it's a blessing that I've been able to keep a pretty normal routine. It's hard not to shake someone's hand when I go do work for them, continually remembering to sanitize my hands before getting out of the truck, then again when I get back in. Spraying down the inside of the truck with Lysol, trying to keep 6' away from people when they want to look over your shoulder to see what you're doing. It seems so much easier to just stay home lol.

Another 24 hours please & thank you.

Jude, we’ve got snow today as well, not 2-4 inches though. You can keep it. Ours is melting when it hits the ground. Regardless of the weather, I’m barbecuing supper again tonight.

Rava, looking forward to your week of quotes. Selecting a quote is hard sometimes but what I’ve done is pick one that has relevance to me. In posting it, I hope it resonates well with others. You’ll do great!

I ordered a side of beef this week from our local butcher. I know he supplies a few large restaurants in Calgary and with them being closed, thought business might be slow. Apparently he’s operating at capacity! Other residents have stepped up by shopping local. Nice to see. This is a business that not only employs up to 30 people, he provides high quality meats and is a huge community supporter.

Have a great af Saturday everyone!

Another 24 please. +4C at 3:35.

QW, yeah the meat shops are busy. I went to my local butcher today and they are swamped. I guess this pandemic is good for them.

Have a good one.

Another sober day please and thank you!

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Good morning Cafe. Supposed to be 92 today. Yikes. Its been hot but listening to your guys talk about snow I will take the heat any day. Wishing everyone a great day and good week ahead. Another 24 for me please and thank you.

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Thanks for the positive thought to start out my week, Rava! But you can keep your 92 degrees! LOL. I don't like extreme temps in either direction!

As you may remember Mr. D and I gave up taking care of cattle last year and instead started renting our pastures. Well, the man that was renting them last year has also decided to make changes to his lifestyle after having had open heart surgery this past winter. He asked us if he could introduce us to his grandchildren and recommended them to step into his role. We met them a couple of days ago and came to an agreement. Yesterday they were here all afternoon going over the fences and making repairs and cutting away brush. It was refreshing to have young people around and having the maintenance done that was sorely needed. I can't wait until Covid is passed and we can actually shake their hands! What a blessing.

24 more, please and thank you.

Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!

Breakfast is just about ready! Just need to get them wrapped in tinfoil so they stay hot!

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Great quote, Rava. Enjoy that toasty weather. It's been in the high 60s/low 70s. My personal favorite temps!

I'll take another 24, please and thank you!

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Another 24 hours please & thank you.

That’s another great brekkie you’ve prepared Cowboy. Thanks!

Rava, as much as I dislike snow and cold temps, 92 is way too hot for my liking. On my to do list for today is to uncover the air conditioner and get it ready for this weeks temps that will be in the 60’s F.

Our local butcher makes prime rib burgers, some of which were grilled here yesterday. Funny, in the past I would have a couple of glasses of wine while I was cooking. I remembered that yesterday but there was no interest in drinking. We got the patio furniture out of storage and with the bird house installed on the fence, we’re ready for summer!

Stay safe, stay healthy and stay af everyone.

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Good morning Cafe. I have to agree 92 is way too hot. Hopefully today will be a little cooler. Since I don’t have a job to get back to we may stay another week or until the weather at home reaches the 70s. Hope everyone has a great day. Another 24 for me please and thank you.

I stayed over in Vegreville one more night as I have to go to the city for a material run and being here puts me an hour closer. But, I do enjoy the extra time with Bubba and Hank!

The weather has been gorgeous, above freezing most nights now. This week is supposed to be in the mid to high teens (55 - 70F) all week so I imagine in 10 to 14 days we'll be rolling the combines out to finish last years harvest, then move on to seeding. Got a couple of jobs that I need to get finished up before the 2 months of farming start!
