Billy the Pig

I heard the dogs barking and found they had rounded up this little cutie- a wild, orphaned, baby boar.
It's a long story so the short version is - Patrick, four dogs and a pig all yelping and bounding through the front yard, over Highway 31 and into the woods on the other side eventually emerging, pig captured and dogs thirsty for blood. Billy, or Belle as he was originally named until his genitalia was discovered now lives happily over at Lickskillet Ranch wallowing in mud and teasing the dogs through the fence.
Ok, so we all know I'm not really a cowgirl.
But yes, I have found myself living in Texas, on a ranch, married to a man who only wears Wranglers and rides his horse through cows in the pasture. Good enough.
