I really like how you put all the towns in there. I could follow you on the map as you went up to Texas all those little back roads and little towns and interstates I would’ve been a really cool drive. Thank you.
Really enjoyable video trip with all the towns listed G5. Read some of the comments below. I was about 12 or so in Reagan Tx. Neighbor had a 600 Acre ranch the fell into the Highbank area bottom and a big Red Brangus showed up in his pasture. He discovered the owner of that Brangus had a ranch in Mumford Tx bottom. Couple cowboys pulling a open top 2 compartment bumper pull stock trailer unloaded their horses and backed up to the dirt ramp loading chute. When that animal took off from the back of that chute like a bullet, she cleared the trailer, her hoofs hit the passenger step side running board and disappeared. We never saw her again on that ranch. On a sad note, G5 did you hear about the family of 4 from Troy that drowned somewhere in or near Alaska? Was couple weeks ago I think. Be safe sir.
@@johnhrynyk8521 that's hilarious about that brangus! Some of em are wild as heck! A couple guys from church bought a bull a few years ago, unloaded it one of their houses, went out the back of the trailer, through the barn, over the fence and never saw it again! 🤣😂 Yes I heard about the people that drowned, very sad, I think I heard that the boat capsized. The seas can get bad real quick, start off nice and calm and in no time you've got big waves! Thanks for watching, I've been putting in some long hours on the road this week, just now got around to getting back to ya, headed back out in the morning!

@@jamesconn7311 back when I used to run sale barns I picked up at the El Campo sale barn from time to time, been a little bit since then, hauled grain and fertilizer back in 2020 for a bit when covid hit and messed up the cattle hauling for a little while! The trip took about 12 hours with the cattle in the trailer. No idea on the driver of that truck, yes I hope he made it out ok, was probably one heck of a ride!
NOTHING worse than South Florida " cracker cattle " wild as deer and about as fast . Fresh out of swamps they use helicopters and air boats to gather them . As you can guess they not only never been on a truck - hell they NEVER SEEN a truck . Had to take old Hwy 41 north ( narrow 2 lane with damn little shoulders ) and first 50-60 miles you use ALL of it .Would of swore they were square dancing back there in trailer .
@@stormyweather9054 WOW!!! That's some crazy stuff right there! I bet they tried to rip the back of the trailer off when they were unloading, had a load of humps that were like that once, the ones of the top deck never even touched the ramp on the way out, just straight up superman out the back!
@@DouglasYoung-tx8xf most of the time cattle that size ride good without using the divider gates, if I've got a bunch of really small cattle 300 to 400 lbs I'll separate them in case one decides to lay down they don't have too many stomping on them, the bigger ones are usually strong enough to get back up without any issues!
