TheNewHouse (to be built when pigs fly) will definitely have a basement or a shelter of some sort.

The more I think about it, the more I think a Hobbit Hole makes a whole lot of sense :~]

So did you get your hay in yesterday?

I needed to put out a roll for the mares over at my FIL’s place on Sunday, but the tractor was over at my BIL’s and it rained all day when I didn’t think it was supposed to. We didn’t want to take a chance on driving the tractor on the road in bad weather and run the risk of having somebody run over us so I just had to load up a couple of square bales in big plastic garbage bags and put them in the back of the Jeep and bring them over to make do until we could get the tractor over there. My MIL has never had to feed them hay before, but she did and they did fine. Turned out that it cleared up enough by Monday afternoon that Pop was able to drive the tractor on over and put a roll out for them in the barn so they’re happy as clams again. Feeding rolled hay is handy because of the price, but it’s a pain sometimes if you don’t have the tractor around to handle them. Now I’ve got to get the tractor BACK over to my BIL’s place by THIS weekend because the OTHER horses will be out of hay by then. You’d think they’d be polite enough to at least get on the same schedule wouldn’t you! ;o)
