The Cow and Calf Operation

Hay, that's great, Tru...and of course The Sweet Life, which follows the logic, or you could do The Sweet Life, A Little Cow & Calf Operation but that would be a mighty challenge for a wrought-iron gate too. TSL,LC&CO for short?? The Sweetwater River is not far away, so it would make sense from a non-Brokie standpoint.

Or on another tack, how about Goin for Brokie? Maybe not subtle enuff for that area of Wyoming, but Annie Proulx's in Centennial so hopefully it's an elightened pocket of the state.

For what it's worth, here's my point of view... if there really is a Sweetwater River nearby, then I quite like "Sweet Life Ranch."  It's concise and to the point... and doesn't seem too terribly long for sign.  It represents a lovely Brokie ideal while also being relevant to your location.

he wanted to build a two story house on a piece of property that was big enough he could piss from the upstairs window and no one could see. I think this place will be big enough!

(Maybe I shouldn't have shared that  ::))

I don't know why not! At my house, I have no curtains on any of the windows. And, I don't need any. That to me defines freedom. But I'd like to go farther. I'd like to go all the way to Wyoming! And that's why I'm looking at a property on Upper Norwood Road!!

Where is Upper Norwood Road? And until you mentioned it I didn't realize that the house in town has shades and blinds on all the windows. I guess I have never had a place where I wasn't nervous about the neighbor's looking in. And think of all the money I can save on window treatments! ;D

I wouldn't be worried about the neighbors! I would be worried about the boogerbears out there in the woods...
