Trail Driving Days Return to Llano
Llano resembles an old-time cattle town as about 800 head owned by A W Moursund of Blanco County are driven on foot to Llano for shipment to Oklahoma grasslands for summer grazing. The cattle will be shipped by rail from Tiano, the area’s inland shipping hub. Spring shipments begin with this large early movement, with calf shipments to follow. Philip Smith notes Llano County cattle are in excellent condition and the outlook is bright.
