Breaking news!!! I finished the fenced enclosure for the Blueberries today along with 2 dozen other little projects. Painting resumes tomorrow on the post and rail fence between us and the neighbor’s big ole cow plus I have to go over to the Church in the morning and help Dennis the Menace bring the lawn sprinklers on line for the first time this year...
When I lived in WA State, our land was hilly. I had a little pasture where my neighbor kept his big ‘ol cow. It was surrounded by a rail fence which I painted white. Trouble is that his cattle would knock the rails off when they wanted to go somewhere else, and he would replace the broken rail it an unpainted one.
Then, one day, his cow had a calf. The calf could go right under the rails where they crossed the swales, and mama cow didn’t like that. So, she would just crash THROUGH the rail to follow her calf. The day that they came up on my deck and were staring at me through the glass door was the day that I evicted them from my pasture and invited my other neighbor to turn his horse out into my pasture.
