I mailed my first payment. Don't have to worry about the next until the end of the month. Just have to make sure there's money... grin, that there will be. I had to make a choice a while back between graduating in 2003 with debt, or in 2004 with money. Easy when you put it in those terms...
Drat, no shorts. Hmm. And it's time to pack up for bed. I'll post from second office tomorrow, after noon. See everyone then!
5 Days To Entmoot!
I have warned Jr. not to tell Luke that we're going to Disney World. Luke has been asking for months. He don't forget...
BTW: Welcome Home WN!
Just remember, there will be at least two at Entmoot for whom the beer goggles have no effect...
Me and my camera!
Yeah, that's my dad's youngest brother's place. At the end of a dead end road. I think he has 160 acres if I remember right. My dad built the tank for him over last winter just before they had that flood so it filled up in about 1/2 day when the rain started.
This is also the place where my dad and Myranda hunt. So, there is a lot of controversy about hunting now that John Deere is a pet there. John Deere is a buck. Myranda is looking at him longingly! :-)
Here is a photo with my dad sitting next to Dave and Uncle Brent who owns the place standing looking in the other direction. The house there is Brent and Lori's old house. They built a new rock house in the direction Dave, Daddy and I are facing.
No way that could happen!!!
And uh, you didn't get to hear the exciting stories Myranda told about my dad and brother getting into a fight in the ski lodge in Colorado. Or my two brothers fighting (physically) over family stuff in front of everybody on the ski slopes.
Of course not! laughing breaks the First Rule of People-watching.
You want me and Jr. to pick you up somethin' from "South of the Border?"
Thanks Corin! I'm unpacked and laundry is done! Now, I gotta get repacked again and ready to fly!
Even the crustiest of farmers have to get water to the stock that is in a liquid form. Ice is no good to them. Horses get dehydrated more in the winter than summer because if it isn't frozen, it is too cold to drink enough of.
I was thinkin the same thing. That's what we used to do when I was active duty, though it was 10:00pm to 8:00am, usually. Makes for great weekends! (The guys on the other shifts were jealous. They had to work 6on/3off, 8-hour shifts that rotated between days and nights.)
Like what?
You really would have liked it at the hospital on Friday! I mean - REALLY liked it! Other people were watching really intently too.
Yeah. Apparantly there were punches thrown on 2 occasions. And lots of harsh words and threats. She now says she feels really sorry for one set of cousins cause she didn't know how things really were in their family. And she's had her eyes opened quite a bit about my mom and dad.
We bought the fencing. Got the same netting that we use around our garden, except 3' instead of two. It's called "Poultry Netting" and it's by Tenax Landware. Very light. Gonna put it up with those green "garden-type" t-posts (we couldn't find the fiberglass "step-ins"...)
The chickens never even go over the 2'netting...it seems too unstable to them I think...so the 3' shoot work fine.
