Today’s tasks include, but are not limited to:
Mowing the hay field that is my yard
Tucking in the last of the Marigolds and Cosmos in the garden beds
Watering what needs watering in said garden - and beyond
Picking more salad greens and spinach for me and the chickens - some Strawberries, too :)
Dog/Mule/Chicken/Racoon/Barn chores (’Stew’ is self-sufficient on pasture, now)
The ‘Canada Circus Train’ left yesterday about 10am. Two trucks, two trailers, one Side-by-Side, one UTV, 8 men, about a dozen DOGS and everything they ALL need to enjoy a week in Canada hunting Black Bear with the dogs and fishing for world-record Walleye and Northern Pike. Got a call at 9pm last night that they were bunked in at our cabin and in the morning when the others show up (I think 19 total are going?) they’re heading North, around Lake Superior and then further into the wilderness. About another 6 hours north of where they are right now. Beau has been planning this trip for months, down to the smallest detail. I know they’ll have a good time. (They are well north and east of the wildfires.)
