"I figured the sheep were all inside my circle but I didn't go far enough " "Well, it's no disgrace to drop a bunch of sheep, particularly yearlings in this rough country where you can't see the whole herd at one time That's why you have to 'cut tracks,' which means you have to go beyond the tracks. Make sure all the sheep are inside the circle you are riding." He could see I was taking it a little hard. He continued, "Now cheer up. We herders have all been out a black and a bunch of sheep That's why we have blacks, they're easy to count." As he swung into the saddle to ride back down to the ranch, I thanked him and said."From now on I'll cut tracks the way it should be done. I'll get around ail the tracks." Reflecting on my mistake, I reasoned. "Do the job the way it should be done. Leave as little as possible to chance " GRANDMA DIDNT MAKE COOKIES Ha! Edwards Professional Second Place Personal Recollection My Grandma Childs didn't make cookies. I didn't know that for many years, because from the time I could remember, I ate what I thought were Grandma's sugar cookies. But the word "cookie" was just too frivolous for her It was a lot like having the President of the LDS Church's General Relief Society with a name like "Candy" or "Poopsie " Cookie was just too silly. 144 |
