"Pot on the Plains", oh boy, Soapweed, that was a classic for sure! :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

And "From the Land of Sky Blue Water" wasn't that the Hamm's beer
slogan from years ago? Gosh, I had all but forgotten that.

Thanks for all the good pictures. That Smoky horse is getting his
mane grown out real well.

Hope the other cow gives up real soon. It's gonna be a long summer for her if she doesn't. :wink:
 
Thinkin them two hobbled cows........is takin "baby steps"

Great pictures soapweed, loved the outhouse, never woulda thought about puttin a fence around one. Most here are right in the back yards behind houses.
 
thanks for the daily report, soapweed!! found myself looking forward to them!!! :D :D
Ya know, as a little girl, outhouses always gave me the willies...too many stories about snakes in the holes!! :shock: :shock: :shock: Looking at the pix of the "pot on the plains" just sorta reminded me!
Nice looking horse, that smokey!!
hate to see an old house going up in smoke...wish those old places could talk..imagine the stories they could tell!! 8)
