The
Cattle Show |
Once
upon a time there was a girl
who loved being outside. She lived
to breath the fresh air and run wild
Oacross the pastures. She would lie
for hours watching the clouds and would roll
down the hills, climb the trees and play in the
fall leaves. As the years passed she moved to the
city and learned the ways of adulthood, giving
up the carefree days of her youth.
Or did she?
Don’t think so. Her love of the simpler life
was always there, deep inside. And every once
in a while, whenever she could escape, she
returned to the freedom of country life.
Welcome to an inside look at The Cattle
Show.
My name is L.Z. and I’m the Executive
Producer of this half-hour weekly television
program. The Cattle Show was created as a way
to take me back to my carefree childhood days
and as a way to give recognition to those
individuals that I admire most, the ranchers.
There is no one I have greater respect for.
These folks know what real work is. They do it
day in and day out, no matter the weather
conditions. It’s in their souls. As caretakers of
this land, they take pride in their jobs, waking
often before the rest of the world is even
stirring and coming back home after the sun
has set.
My show allows me to journey to different
ranches across the nation, visiting with country
people who welcome me into their life and
share their knowledge. I have been around
horses and cattle most of my life, working with
them in different aspects. From pleasure riding
to working with a trainer toward competition,
from bottle calves that my children have
enjoyed feeding, to building a seed stock
operation. Livestock is a way of life for me.
I live on a small ranch never knowing what
creature my children will bring home next. It’s
not unusual for me to find them carrying
around anything from a chicken to a pig.
We live a country life. Instead of buying eggs
from the store, my girls go to the chicken coop
and gather the eggs. Friends of my girls who
visit often marvel at the everyday occurrences
in our lives. I am determined to keep my family
connected to each other and to the values that
country life supports.
As I mentioned earlier, I lived in the city for
many years, but it never felt like home. After
having my first child, I knew that I wanted to
return to my roots. I wanted to be near my
extended family. I actually bought land next to
my folks. All of my siblings felt the same way
and we have now all returned. Our ranches are
connected and we share our lives, our families
and our love.
The episodes you watch on The Cattle Show
are inspired by viewers like you who take the
time to write and tell me about your experi-
ences with a certain breed or perhaps you need
more information on a cattle related topic.
The Cattle Show brings the experienced
rancher’s years of effort and experience to those
who might be considering starting a herd. It is
also designed to be educational, showcasing
products or procedures and explaining various
marketing concepts.
Our goal is to touch on every aspect of the
cattle industry and dig deeper into those special
interests that the viewers request.
The show is here to serve as a research tool,
by getting the experts involved and showing
you the different breeds. If its cattle-related and
you want to know about it, write to me and I’ll
find it for you.
