When Terry promised Debbie a new ride, she had
no idea what to expect. Knowing Terry, it would
be something exciting, something unusual. After
many, many
years of marriage, Debbie knew that Terry's
perspective of the world was different...that
he was always thinking like a different animal.
So, she could be patient, and wait for the plan
to unfold. From time to time, Terry dropped
hints, like "I'm grazing
around for the best deal" or, "Hay,
these salesmen are full of bull! hybrids in
the US already?"
Then
there were mysterious phone messages about red
on tan, brown on tan…The schemes sounded a little
mundane, but Debbie is a patient person and
trusted Terry's sense of color. And, in retrospect,
there
was some strange activity at the shop. The giant
corral being built in the front yard, for example.
Another place to store Terry's collector cars,
perhaps??
Well,
by now you have seen the pictures. It was
a surprise, to say the least, but Bevo's brother
Dieter fit right in to the family. A German
longhorn, who'd have thunk it?? Dieter DOES
eat a lot, but hay is cheaper than gas. And
he DOES make a lot of gas, but with our outdoor
shop, who cares?? And giving customer rides
is a lot more entertaining now, although now
that we think about, requests for rides have
diminished quite a lot. But Debbie, as you
can see, is very happy. She has always loved
animals.
