THEY ARE BURNING GRAZING LANDThe WEF globalists want to control peasants by controlling the food and water. Right now the grazing areas of the Texas Panhandle are being devastated. Beef is for Americans what bison was for Native Americans. They WILL starve US. WATCH!

65% of snow tomorrow. Pray it’s 100% and heavy.


To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

Yup, I lost about 50 acres about 10 years back due to a downed power line caused by high winds. Dear Lord, hear our prayer.

Yes, cold, wet drizzle here in the Rolling Plains this morning. I hope it puts a stop to the Smokehouse Creek Fire.

What was the cause of the fire?


For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Couple of early stories, if you want, from some TX people on another msg board.

A friend has a cousin with a farm/ranch in Canadian. They lost cattle, several vehicles, garage, horse and hay barn and all of their fencing. Spent the night shooting 850 horses, cattle and a pet donkey.


So, just got a report on some stuff around Canadian. They are in town now getting more bullets. A lot of houses and buildings burned in Canadian. So, this dude has a pretty decent size spread over there and runs 2500-4000 head between his cow/calf and yearling operation. They gathered the pasture closest to the house (didn't burn), which was the least affected, and had to shoot 10 out of 75. However, they've been moving to the worst hit places today and they got 75 gathered that they'll have to shoot all of them. They've got a long ways to go. They also have to take pictures of every single head for insurance purposes. That sucks. Another guy from Claude has a place over there and runs about 250 cows. They estimate they've lost about 150 and shot about 20 yesterday. They've got more to shoot today, but haven't even come close to finding them all. The bigger outfit has a trainwreck on their hands. It's brutal over there. Cows with eyes burned out, hair gone, udders burned up with calves on them who can't milk. They're just dealing with the walking right now and haven't even got to counting the dead ones, which are laying all over the place.

Any idea how the weather is holding up? Is it damping the fires any?
