Into my heart on air that kills
From yon far country blows:
What are those blue remembered hills,
What spires, what farms are those?
That is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went
And cannot come again.

Even though they are immature what would they measure?
Call them on their cell phones and ask them Rudi, will ya mate?

Those Lydenburg mountains sure has KUDU magic on them.
Nice to see that you had good rains there as well.

Safari-HuntThe first photo the bull on the left cannot see his tips properly from the photo but he looks very promising as well.
