I'd just finished milking Wilma and was following my sister back to the house when this truly glittery young dude rode into town. Lordy, he was something, with his yeller hair hanging in his eyes, his tack all polished fit to blind a hog, and rhinestones and sequins all over his shirt and chaps. So I said to Viv, I said "Ain't he purty?"
Viv, she never held much truck for none of them fancy-dancy cowboys what rode for the King's spread, so she just turned up her nose and hied off for home. But me, I stayed to watch as he lit down and walked up to the Padre, who'd just come out of the church. Then Viv yelled, "Kate! Get your lazy fanny in here--now!" So I picked up my milk pail and marched off, and as I walked into the kitchen, Viv was busy being Viv and yammering, "You should've seen her, Ma, standing there slobbering like a bitch in heat." "Aw, I was just looking," I said. "Ain't no harm in that, is there? Anyway, he warn't interested in nothing but Brother Dave, which leaves out any trips to the hay loft, for dang sure." And I guv Viv such a look, letting her know that I knew what she did up there. So she went for me with her claws, and I grabbed her by the hair and yanked hard as a gentle reproof, and Ma had to get between us to break it up.
