Third week on our first gate for this season!

Here we are starting another week at the Tanquecites Ranch here in Larado, Texas.  The well drilling seems to be going quite well.  Not real sure of there depth but we are looking at at least another couple of weeks here.
This last week has been very quiet, all the men had plenty of groceries for Turkey Day and then yesterday of course after the temperature dropped into the 30's everyone had to go get some warmer clothes.
Most of our traffic for this last week was ranch owners and hunters.  We have been promised a back strap from the deer that was gotten yesterday.  We may have to go get a freezer if they keep this up as they brought us a turkey breast the day before Thanksgiving and also a bottle of wine.




We were setting out this week watching a little blue and yellow smasher monster and decided it was an auto smasher, we watched until they pulled out and even pulled out a whole load of smuched vehicles.
  As they were doing there thing
 Jack had a real nice visit with two nice border patrol guys.  They stayed and talked for about thirty minutes and really made us feel pretty safe around here even if we are pretty close to the border!



We have also snapped a few pictures of others that visited this week, the game warden was called out to the ranch as a lock on another gate was found broken by the pumper.  He drove around with the owners and was supposed to be back but I bet he is to busy this time of the year.




There is also a beautiful sunrise picture (fire ball).
One the little females that runs around here had to get close enough for me to shoot her also.
Will try to find out some well details this next week.
