Cockleberry or cockleburr....It's a seed...From a weed....No not that weed....Usually find it around agricultural fields...."Bout 1/2 way between a peanut and a grape....It's covered with spines...Not really sharp but not exactly dull spines either...I've removed at least 10 million from my horse's tail...they like sticking to shoe strings and levis as well...

Wait! Isn't that a cucklebur? I know what you are talking about lol They stick to your pant legs if you are walking through a field that has them.

We are going to be looking for property in East Texas this summer. If I locate his place I'll see if he'll loan it to ya LOL

You will never locate his place. He is afraid that someone will discover that pond next to his house and word will get out.

Notice that he wants to "meet up" with you somewhere? Uh, huh :facepalm:

I'll just keep my eyes peeled for him riding that motorcycle with one of his bovine buddies in the passenger car and I'll follow him home.

Well kids, its been fun yapping with you guys and Norry, it is so nice to be able to chat with you again. Please stop back often!

For now, I'd better start heading for the barn and my bale of hay with my headless chicken, singing dog and drunken armadillo and get a nights sleep.

Have a good night all.

Lubs and Hugs,

TT

    Did I mention I got hubby one of those curved side sleeper pillows that's supposed to help neck and back? Anyway I'm sitting on the porch when hubby gets up. He steps out,walks around me and the table to sit in his recliner. I wait and get nothing so I ask how he feels. He says the pillow made his neck stiff but it feels good now. Yeah and what about the back/hip and leg?? He didn't notice???????????????OMG
