ranchwife you asked so you get it. Hanta was helping me tag calves a few years ago and we were using that truck, I was driving and she would get out, grab the calf and I would come around tag it, band if needed and give it a shot. I pulled up to a new calf, she opened the door to get out and the cow hit the door head on, backed up and hit it again, backed up and hit it again. She probably would of hit it again but I ran around the truck and she came after me. Hanta was pinned with her feet on the ground and the door smashed so it would not even open with out some major prying. On the bottom of the door there is two dents where the door got molded around her legs. Lucky she didn't get hurt worse than she did, only bruised. I tagged the calf under the truck Wink As long as I am telling stories on her, the year before that we were tagging and she grabbed a calf, thought the cow was coming after her, turned to run, fell down and dislocated her thumb, and I mean it was readjusted. I ran her into the hospital cause I wasn't gonna touch that, she would have killed me on the spot. In the hospital the doctor on call was one of those that got his diploma from the university of Egypt that has a problem with English as a language. He was wanting to give her an anesthetic, admit her to the hospital and put the thumb back where it is suppossed to be. She was not in a very good mood, and she told him "You just put this thumb where it is suppossed to be, understand?" I don't think that this guy had ever seen a ranch woman before, especially one on the fight, so he did what he was told right there. She said "lets get out of here, we still need to finish tagging calves." Now you see why I always say "yes ma'am no ma'am what ever you want my dear Wink

That reminds me of something that happened to a neighbor a few years ago. He had land along a state hiway and was fixing fence one day. A passer by saw him and his old beat up pickup then slammed on the brakes, jumped out and ran down to where he was. The neighbor was down on his knees by the fence when the fellow got to him. He hollered...boy the way that pickup looks you must have had a hell of a wreck are you ok? The neighbor told him he was ok, and hadn't had a wreck but was just fixing a little fence. Laughing
