San Saba, TX

This past Wednesday, my family and I drove up to San Saba, TX to visit my mom's best friend, Ella, and her husband. Ella's husband is a rancher and they have a lot of cows! We got to go with them on Thursday to feed the cows, and they were huge! They are black angus cows.

Here is Alexander and I in front of (part of) the herd.

This is a calf that stood off to the side.

The cows could not keep their eyes off their food!

This is the 'Wedding Oak'. It is a tree about a thousand years old and it was were Ella and her husband, John, were married. You can see were a long time ago, when somebody cut off a branch, it was the shape of a heart on the tree.

This is a picture of a real cowboy working the stables at a cow sale downtown.
