Reflections of a sunset

The sunset Saturday evening was a pretty one. I got this picture at one of my favorite spots to watch the sun set.

Fishing Texas

Kristi is trying to catch the "big" one. Ginobli thinks he is helping.

Lex thinks he has found the right spot.

It looks like he was right.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! What a good looking couple. It was so much fun to have them in for a few days.

Christmas

Sandra gets something good........a digital picture frame.

Kristi gets a sewing repair kit.

Those South Carolina deer don't have a chance now.

Wow, whitetailopaly!

Kristi gets excited about her present.

Cruising the ranch...

Here we are out riding the roads. Kristi, Lex, and I were out with Ginobli, their dog, who is running ahead. Sandra was back home cooking a great Mexican feast.

Here is Ginobli checking out some old deer scent. The game cameras were taking our pictures at the different feeding stations. It was a hoot watching Ginobli run like the wind all over checking out the many different new smells and sights.

Merry Christmas

The Poths and the Lanhams wish everyone a very Merry Christmas.

Along with the deer many other animals get fed too...

More Racoons

This old girl has figured out how to pull feed out of the spouts for all below.

He just thought no one was watching.

Bruto posing for the camera...

Hmmmmmmmmmmm ducks like peanuts too...

I didn't look up the name of these "ducks" but we commonly call them whistlers. They are munching on the peanut trash along with some corn I throw in line with the camera to get deer to pose for me.

Sunset over a stocktank...

This evening while I was out feeding deer and picking up discs out of my trail cameras I noticed that the sky was making up for a pretty sunset. So, I set up at one of my favorite spots to watch it and got these and other pictures.

Banditos

It must be time to get back to trapping...

Thanksgiving in the Upstate.

Kristi and Lex had Raymond and Mary, Clayton and Julie their "Aggie" neighbors, and Sandra and me for a wonderful Thanksgiving meal.

Clayton and Julie Ciomperlik.

The table is set...

Fried turkey, yum...

At the end of the day the whole Poth family relaxes.

Ginobli and Lex play "chase".

Ginobli sees how close he can get without Lex touching him.

Catch me if you can.

Too slow...

Another chance...

Not even close

Gino figures he has Lex worn out.

That was fun!

Ginobli the Retriver

Ginobli shows what a good job of retriving he can do.

Oops, it smells like it landed in a "muddy" spot.

Ginobli turns the ball over to see if there is a clean spot to pick it up. Nope, I'm not picking this thing up.

Everything likes peanuts

Javelinas like peanuts...

Greenjays like peanuts...

And .... so do coyotes.

Fishing Texas

Got that serious look on his face.

Lex flies in to do some ranch "fun"...

Lex doing some serious fishing on a very windy day.

Here I am looking pretty serious too. It gets that way when you haven't caught more fish than your son in so long I can't remember.

Oops, who caught the fish?

Lex feeding the fish some catfish food. He really had them swirling the water.

Lex spots an alligator on the bank of a small pond.

Nice looking gator...
