My ranch

[Paradox313]

Ok so as some of you know i have close to 1200 acre cattle ranch,
well my dad wanted me to go take the dogs out for a run today so i thought id bring my camera, only thats the thing that about got me killed.

ill post pictures in a few minutes (it might take a very long time to post them all at once, cause imageshack's sucking right now)

ps i didnt want to resize them cause i want you to see everything

pss. there also is a fire somewhere so thats why you see smoke

psss. since you dont live here in about a week after i take photos of the ENTIRE place i will draw a diagram showing where each location is
give note that there is 4 pastures, this is just part of the 1st pasture, not the entire thing. i got too scared and came right home




My friends horses from left, Jackson, and Cheyenne

Back in the 1800's when there were no cars, people built schoolhouses all over the place, i have one, but i never venture in there for it is ready to collapse.

The reason why my camera nearly got me killed. I was going to take a picture of the hills when out of the corner of my eye i saw a full grown moose within 25yds of me scared the crap out of me and took a couple of steps toward me, my dogs took off at it, and i just got a faint picture of it.

Looks like where I grew up, except for the huge honking hill! Brings back some memories, that's for sure...

[ooglieboogliebob]

.... pure awesomeness. I'd love to live on that much land :D. Better part about it is that you don't have to mow anything !!!

How far from the nearest town ??

[bigred76]

:yeahthat: That is one pimp ass place, I'd love to live there! (except for missing the paintball fields...)

[pbfreak3221]

You live in a beautiful place, and you took some beautiful pictues your very lucky

[bamf-hacker]

I love the ranch man...

Word of advise.. RESIZE your pics :)

[thechubbss12]

Humm looks like some places in oklahoma.... Although that is dwindling over here....

Looks wild and like alot of fun... but me being a city dweller i would miss all the sounds as night LOL....

[xtraking]

i bet that hill is awesome for sledding... if you get snow that is :p

[claustrophobia9]

cool ranch... not the doritos :dodgy:

being far from stuff drives me nuts... i could never manage that. my friend has a small ranch that is off of a street, thats off of a street that leads to lots of places and like him i think thats the farthest i could go.

[Paradox313]

the nearest town is 8 miles, where theres 2 stores, 2 very competetive resturants, a k-12 school, and about 30 houses, nearly 10 of them people actually live there.

the other town where its allright to go to is 40 miles, where its just a normal place for 3000 people, but it has alot more stores that you think

[pbfreak3221]

any one else in that town 8 miles away from you play ball?

[Paradox313]

sorta
im trying to convince them to buy markers
they spend $7000 on a bull yet they dont want a dm6

there is a guy bout 10 miles west of where i live (the town is NE) and i gave him my BE Eradicator and his little brother has a Victor and he just bought an ESP frame, and im gonna go over there and help him install it (he knows nothing of paintball), and for a gift i bought them 2 JT Masks (dont know what they are) and an Echo mask
