Rain....

Matt, isn't there a nice tank at your parent's place for us all to cool off in?

We have been scurrying around trying to finish off more projects here at the house before the (predicted) rain this weekend. The new tractor warranted adding on another 20 feet to our hay/equipment barn. The tractor has a nice spot to park out of the weather, as does the mule. We got the sheep working arena finished last week, and last night the flock was dewormed - which is never a fun task in the mud. I think Chris got a good laugh watching me wrestle and get flung around by a 200 lb sheep when I grabbed wool from behind him. He started spinning like a bull for quite a few revolutions before I could get him straddled and under control.

Chris got out into the horse pasture with a box blade and rippers. We are preparing it for planting with Pensacola Bahia and so will lose the use of that pasture for 7 months to a year while it gets established.

So much to do while we still have dry weather!

It is getting a little frustrating though. My mowing jobs slow down when there's no rain to make the grass grow. As well, we have a huge garden in the ground down at the Garcia's that hasn't had enough rain to even germinate.
Cheers
M
