I learned today that when you think things are hopeless.. they arn't..
Jarred scrambled at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.. he caught a calf and won a certificate towards the purchase of his *dream heifer* a Hereford. He paid a deposit down on one, then he died. The plan was to let his sister show the heifer in his honor. Houston revoked the certificate because he passed away.
So our 4-H club was bound and determined to come up with the $1500 before next Weds.. before the deadline to pay for the heifer in full.
We had basically $500, and NOBODY was donating..
This new company in town.. a husband and wife team, paid the remainder in full.. without hesitation.
That's frickin AWESOME!!
