On the Road with Dave Alexander
If you are looking for the hottest new spot in North Texas for live music, great food and drink, it is time you make a trip to downtown Cowtown in Fort Worth, Texas. Over the past few years, Cowtown has been getting a new look. With the addition of a new Five Star hotel, facelift, and makeover of the old Mule Barns, a new era of western entertainment is emerging.
Speaking of entertainment, Tannahill’s Tavern and Music Hall is at the top of the list.
Inspired by chef Tim Love and his lifelong dream to bring together world-class musical performers and premium food and drink to the heart of the stockyards, Tannahill’s is the new place for a great time. It is great whether you prefer a nice intimate lounge with local musicians and a laid back feel, or the Tavern where you can enjoy a great snack before moving into the Music Hall where you and 1,000 of your closest friends can enjoy top notch, A-List entertainers right here in North Texas.

With the prolonged drought, most pastures in Oklahoma end up in poor condition. With the lack of available forage, animals may go in search of alternative foods.
If oak trees are in the pastures, acorns may be a favorite meal for some livestock in the fall. This may result in oak poisoning.
Oak leaves, twigs, buds, and acorns may be toxic to some animals when consumed.

There are a handful of grasses on North Texas grazing lands ranchers need to know, not because they are highly desirable, but rather because they are not of much value. I call them “decom” plants, which is am acronym for “Don’t Ever Count On Me.” Silver bluestem is a “decom” grass.
Silver bluestem is a perennial which grows in all areas of Texas. It can survive in almost all soil types, and in full sun conditions or in semi shade. It grows up to three feet tall and is easily recognized with the presence of the white fuzzy seed head. Also, one of the identifying characteristics of Silver bluestem is a bend in the stems at each node, causing the plants to take on a rounded shape as they mature.

Fall is here which means winter is closing in on us and before we officially get into winter, we need to make sure our factories are either producing or will be producing in a few months.
We have been pregnancy testing our cows this fall and if they are not bred or nursing a calf, we are bidding them adios. With annual costs somewhere between $900.00 and $1,000.00 per cow, those cows not producing a live weaned calf are costing us quite a bit.
