Some times, my life on the Ranch in Texas reminds me on the small village Naurath -Eifel, Germany. where I spend the first 4 years of my life, visiting our neighbors goats, cows and dogs. Much of that is still the same except that now my day begins with my own critters and most of the day is spend attending to them. Currently 20 some cats, 14 dogs and 5 horses demand a lot of attention, never mind the upkeep of the 10 acres of land.
With my husband Larry we started " Smiling Bear Ranch " 8 years ago with Joy of the Silver-Moon and Quendy of the Snowy Land, 2 Siberian Huskies.They have been with us since 1995. Our ranch is tucked away between Dallas and Houston. The Property was an untamed wilderness and in parts it still is kept as a wild life refuge with frequent visits of Deer, Wild Turkey, Coyotes, Bobcats, Black Panters,snakes and more!
I worked as a Realtor for a number of years in Texas, prior to that I lived and worked in Las Vegas, Nv., with interruption, spending a few years here & there in Germany, concentration on attending Art Classes. Once we were back in the States, practicing Real Estate, my husband was deployed, again! I gave up the Real Estate books devoting myself to raising Siberian Huskies, Boer Show goats and Horses.
I did love my days as a Realtor, the Fancy Life in Las Vegas but being a Rancher offers so much more! |
