Busy weekend






Lots going on, got my long hair cut and donated the pony tail to Locks of Love, it used to touch my belt, seems strange to have short hair again.

Finally choose a name for the new heifer, we will call her Marjie.

Got another brooder done and the Delaware chicks really like the new set up, so doesn't Sheryl as she doesn't have to put up with the mess and smell in the basement.

Moved Olive the pig in to the lane way and then put another Port a hut in there for her, as of sunday evening at 4:00 PM she still has not had her piglets.

Moved Tammy the pig from Avery's place and put her with Olive, moved Cody's pig from his place and put him in with Avery's pig, these two pigs are due to go next Sunday.


The new windows were installed on Friday and we are so pleased with them even if we did think the whole window, frame, sash and all were going to be replaced, such was not the case...oh well live and learn. We have spoken to Bruce and have the plywood, tyvec and red cedar shingles ready to order so I can completly reside the cabin.

Cody, Shawn and I got a new gate put up, the cows moved in to the east end of the ox pasture and their water trouths moved in there, Kevin and Jeff got 50 pounds of pasture mix spread in the west side of the ox pasture. I reseeded the north and south five acre lot and Cody's pasture, will do the house pasture next and then the four acre lot.

SHawn and I cut down the Chinese Empress tree and the pine tree on the east side of the house, Jeff, Kevin helped us with the clean up.

Sheryl, Kevin and I took down our split rail fence and stacked it up for burning, next to go is the lookout tower, the place is really going to look different to our return customers.

I cleaned the chimney for the fourth time this season while Shawn and Cody built a fire in the outside fire pit and burned a lot of stuff that was just waiting for the right time.

Like I said, it was a busy weekend.

Cheers,

Craig
