Have you ever been taking a walking and a buffalo comes out of no where and chased you up a tree? That is what happen to James one of the guys that works for Travis. James was walking up the hill to our house, and right below our yard a buffalo chased him. He climbed up a small tree and the buffalo knocked the tree down and then pinned him to the ground with it's nose!! Thankfully James got away with only a hurt hand. I'm not really sure how he got away. When Buffalo's are alone they are very fierce and very dangerous. God surely showed His mercy on James.

I guess everyone doesn't have nor love a water buffalo ;)
Missy stole my punchline!
I'm so thankful James got away with so few injuries. The Lord was truly with him.
You know, sometimes when I'm out walking around the block this happens to me too. I Hate it when that happens!
I'm so glad to hear that James is okay. I thank the Lord for the amazing protection He provides for us all, much of it we never know of.
That happens to me all the time. hee hee ;)
That is so scary!! Wow!
...and I too love what Missy said! LOL.
Yeah I would have needed a good new pair of pants after that encounter! LOL
One of these days I will share my experience being chased by a black angus bull.... okay so it was a 200pound calf... but it was bigger than I was!!! Heather was chased by the same bull a year later when it was over 500 pounds! Believe it or not.... it was my mother's day present one year! And no, I did not ask for cattle! And I got two! Yes, I will have to share it one day... funny story!
Glad to hear James got away!
Yes, Aunt Michele's cattle... I believe Pop Pop was involved in the hauling of one of those calves if I recall the story. It was hauled in a station wagon!
I can't wait to read this to the kids! I am so glad he is ok, but what a great story to tell. I was just thinking yesterday that I had not run in to may buffalos recently! 8-) I am glad to hear that summer is doing well!
I do think I saw someone pinned by a water buffalo in the school hallway the other day. I am glad that he got away safe!
