I don't know what you call this little fella, I found him in the canyon one weekend day, just walking, and digging for water, which I found in many places in the gravel, always, on the 'high' side, about 2 feet down. I needed some filtration for the water, but did not have, so I did not drink it, however, it was wet, and that's really important when you need it.
My canyon has a lot of walnut trees in it, none more than 12 feet high, and some desert willows about as big, I will try to send some photo's of them. You never see anything more than 3 feet tall anywhere else on the ranch.
Sanderson is the" Cactus Capitol of Texas"

Do you know that you can eat cactus? It is quite delicious and very beneficial if you happen to be a diabetic.

DeleteThere is a place near my work, that you can get a taco with cactus in it, the spanish escapes me right now, maybe nopilito? It's pretty good, but I would rather have bacon and eggs.
Ah, a gun man, I approve. To add to what she said, you can eat rattle snakes also, but you already know that.
ReplyDeleteHi Billy, thanks for checking in.
DeleteI would only eat a snake if I were in dire straights. ( I have been there before, but never had the occasion.)
I collect guns, never have the time to shoot them all, can't keep them all cleaned, even if I don't shoot them, my wife Patti say's I need to sell some of them, but I resist that every chance I get!
I really like the Sanderson area. I'm a 'windmill guy' and that area has some of the largest water pumping windmills ever made.
