Captain Crab's Really Lazy Today
It's been a tough spring to get good pictures of calves and foals this year. I am fairly lazy today, so here's my favorite calf from last year, Poof.

Spring (and new calves) Are Here at Last
My neighbor raises cattle. Very good cattle. One of the things I really enjoy is being in and among them during calving season. His cows are very docile, so it is fairly easy and safe, if you don't invade their space.
This was the latest calf. He slept the whole time I was there.
His mother was a few feet away and never moved. She just watched as I took pictures.
This calf was the most inquisitive.

Captian Crab's Diet Plan
I visited my Doctor today for a follow up concerning the slight medical problem I encountered in December. In early January, tests showed my cholesterol slightly elevated. Elevated enough to go on medication. It was recommended that I change my eating habits a bit too.
Since mid January, my weight has dropped from 196 pounds to 181 pounds! I would like to lose about 10-12 pounds more, but that will require exercise, and that sucks!
All of you are reading this saying "Whoa Crab Guy, how did you do it?" Well Kids, it's easier done than said but I'll give it my best shot. This is what I used to do for dinner on the road.
I gave up or severely reduced eating the following:
eggs
most meat (no Gwen I will not go full veggie again)
bread
soda (diet* INCLUDED)
I am eating more:
fish
vegetables, both raw and steamed
fruit
But, I believe the most important thing that I have done is quit drinking beer during the week. Instead, I now drink a vodka martini before dinner (or supper for some of you) and a glass of red wine with my meal.
On Friday and Saturday I still enjoy a bock or two or three or.........
*diet sodas contain some chemicals in the sweetener which enhance the appetite
