- Another cattle run from Texas to Kansas and on the way home I stop to pay respect in Canadian TX. Aerial footage of the devastation left behind by the Smokehouse Creek wildfire that burned over one million acres at the end of February.

AMEN & AMEN
Much oblige for the video. Ive driven that that same road many many times in the cow-wagon. I was born & raised up river from Canadian bout 30-40 miles. Have a safe travel
Your welcome and thanks for watching! Are you still hauling cattle? I can't tell you how many times I've been through there, that's the main route we take to most of the feed lots in western Kansas, I usually stop on one end of town or the other to check the cattle on the way through.
Thank you for sharing video, i miss hauling cattle, over here hauling dairy milk
Couldnt fine anyone to pay me right, 500 to 800 aweek isnt going to pay the bill & food on the table, plus save for my own Pete & trailer
Dairy, i am doing 1200 to 1500, and still can save a lil bet
Thanks for watching! Yeah it's tuff right now, even for those of us with our own trucks and trailers, just don't seem to be enough loads to go around, glad you're making it hauling milk, one of my grandpa's did that for many years!
The last part was intense. Good video.
Thank you! I was just trying to give proper respect, a lot of people lost everything.
Another enjoyable video good sir. Take care
Thanks you! You too!
Fill up every other day? Wow....That's some serious expenses partner. Thanks for letting me tag along. This is very interesting. I retired from driving buses so, I know what it's like to sit and drive for hours. All people see is that you're sitting all day and they think it's easy, plus you load and unload cattle. Safe travels.
Thanks for stopping by and watching. Yes fuel is my biggest expense on an annual basis! The driving part is just one aspect of it, loading and unloading cattle has it's own challenges, plus with the cost of service it pays to know how to do a lot of your own maintenance, changing tires, breaks, oil changes etc.! Thank you!

Thank Ya Sir for another good video , i enjoyed watching it !! i was out near Brenham i guessing the year 2011 which may not be right but , i had went to look at a Jeep , they had some bad fires out that way , i asked the Ol Boy about them , he said he could see it coming towards his place & not far away from his place he it split and went either side of his place there , i thought wow how lucky or The Man upstairs was watching over them , i do recall some lost it all that year , really dry here in East Texas that year .
Thank you for stopping by and watching another one. Yes 2011 was the year, that was the big Bastrop TX fire, 32,000 acres caused by high winds and trees that had not been trimmed close to power lines, that fire was about 35 minutes from where I live, had friends that lost everything in that fire, just devastating! Labor Day weekend was when it started, we were at Canyon Lake and on the way home you could see the fire and smoke for miles!
yes Sir now that ya mention that i was running back to the Alamo went thru Bastrop ever trip , rember seeing the devistation , sad deal for sure . Take Care , Thanks

Wow. Very sobering video at the end. So heartbreaking for all those who suffered loss and will continue to feel the effects for years to come.
thank you and yes just awful and will take a long time for the area to come back, but homesteads that have been in the families for generations will never be the same
I can't imagine the pain those ranchers are feeling. God bless them.
yes, just awful! and may God carry them through this!
that looks like the feedlot in Ingalls ks been there
It was Grant County this trip, thanks for watching
When fuel went to 1.00 a gallon I thought the world ended. I still get disgusted at the fuel pump.
I hear ya! When fuel went over $5 a gallon in 2022 and I was spending over $1400 to fuel up, it left very little if any for profit, the freight rate increases couldn't keep up, it was basically just cash flow, in the account and right back out! Disgusted is correct! Have a great day and thanks for watching!
Here in Canada for 231 gallon be $1964.65 in diesel Tks to chisel head Trudeau go up 🆙 23% on April 1 carbon tax . 😊
I take moose hunter from Oklahoma USA 🇺🇸 come to Newfoundland every fall 😊. Guys said it was bad down there . Fire 🔥 are bad stuff for sure . 😮
Wow! that's ridiculous! I've heard about him, doesn't sound like a good leader!
Imagine how many miles of fence were ruined.
I heard someone talking about that the other day, a staggering amount!
