Well....barely a trace of rain last night - but I was ready for a downpour just in case. Cloudy and windy most of the morning. Around 10AM I noticed a familiar face approaching....Benita! We spent about an hour getting re-acquainted which means I watched her eat range feed. Managed to work in a good neck scratch for her too. She spent about an hour on the south side of my house out of the wind.
Lunched at the GrubShack then returned home to introduce my neighbor Chris to Benita. She has become a real fan. Chris has been asking about B ever since we met on the Homes Tour. They hit it off well enough for her to be able to hand feed Benita.
Spent the afternoon prepping the foundations for the west side of the greenhouse. The north side was a breeze but the south side involved quite a bit of rock chopping to make room for a course of cinder block. Just like old times - Benita followed me around a bit while I chopped'n'blocked. I think all that eating and watching wore her out...or perhaps it was the 10 mile walk she just did to get back home. 50,68,37,0

Clicked on the webcam about 3 or so and saw the ol' girl back home eating. What a welcome sight.
Beautiful animal and a great photo!
She is a keeper!

I like that cow. We just have black and white dairy cows around here.
They say that cows are dumb. Benita makes that statement seem like a myth.
We all here, watching TFL grow, have watched Benita grow from a scrawny old Texas longhorn into a healthy celebrity. Ya jealous John???
Speak'n of watch'n grow....I remember the first truss lay'n on the table. I remember the first container being leveled. Look at ya now!!!!
The prodigal cow returns.
The foundation looks good.
Good to see Benita is back! John, keep Benita happy so she will stay. Animals get jealous over other animals too. Benita dose not want to share you with the other Longhorns.
