jetro 5,349 Posted February 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 Many years ago, in the next village over, a young couple just had a baby. One day after feeding the child, left it in the crib beside the fire, and went outside to do their chores, a pig, boar came in and ate the child. The poor woman was so distraught that she drowned herself in the lake behind the house. Atb j Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jetro 5,349 Posted February 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 When I look back at the stunts we did around live stock as kids, it's frightening lol, don't know we weren't seriously hurt or killed. Holding rodeos with semi tame cattle, to pretending we were matadors with bulls lol. Atb j 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
