okay so we have been fighting to even get the local power company to come out and look at our sit, give is a number, tell us what needs done where they are going to be coming in ect. Every day the story has changed from one thing to another. All week they have said we are coming up over the...

I keep wondering if it is possible to build a cetrine for around the new barn. The rain barrels are only good for the summer months. But I have not a clue on how to build or who around here you could have build one for you. :/ Ps I wanted to add that we built all of ours out of plastic 55gal...

what really makes me mad about it is that I grew up spending 90% of the daylight hours playing in the swamp and woods around our house and the neighbors farm. Most of that time never wearing shoes. I didn't even where shoes in my wedding. And I have never had a on me in my life til this year!

lol sounds like the Canadian Geese with their little ones that were outside my bed room window this morning trying to figure out what my call ducks have found so appealing here.

okay so I got the joy of pulling two ticks off myself when I got home from working on the new farm tonight.This is the third time in the past few months. This does not include the ones found on our animals, even the ones with the anti tick meds on. The ones the I have pulled off hubby when he...
