We saw this thing, that I thought was a ram, but one of my students told me it is called an aoudad:
And this momma sheep nursing her babies. You have got to click on the photo to see her face. Bless her heart...and her sore "you know whats!"
And then she ran away...she must be camera shy or maybe this was her chance to take a little break. Her little babies don't know what to think.
We saw some deer which made Mr. Incredible's heart race a little (he is a deer hunter) and more sheep:
Baa-ram-ewe!
And a beautiful horse having his lunch. Well, I think it's a boy...but I'm not going to zoom in and look. You go ahead if you like and let me know. Ha!
And a donkey which made us think of Shrek, "Hey Don-kay!"
And then I spotted this strange creature. I had to zoom in from far away but determined it was an Alpaca or a Llama. I don't really know the difference between the two, do you?
We saw lots of rocky areas on our drive:
And then some men on horseback with their trail dog. You gotta love Texas!
You can see for miles!
So, what does your area of the world look like?
Thanks for going with us! Ya'll have a blessed day!
Thanks for the nice drive! West Texas really does have some pretty scenery and I'm always amazed at just how flat it is. I'm an east Texas, Piney Woods girl living in North Texas with the Black dirt we call glue. Do you realize how many different colors/kinds of dirt there are just in Texas?
ReplyDeleteLovely shots Kristi! You guys would be really stuck out there if you had car problems wouldn't you? Wide open spaces!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the lovely pictures!
Wow you really were in the middle of nowhere. And THAT'S where a tournament was held? LOL!
ReplyDeleteLoved the picture of the animals.
We get excited when we see a bunny run across our yard! LOL!
