Up and at 'em - it's trash day. It's gathered but needs to be wheeled to the road. That'll happen after this cup of coffee.
It's a perfect 60 degrees this morning! Whoop! It's been a long time coming but can't get too excited we're still headed for high 80's/low 90's today. It's ok - much better than triple digits.
I'm working on a chicken coop. My birds have always been free range and generally hang out at the big barn with the goats. However, now there are several who prefer my back porch as their hangout. Nope - I'm over having a poopy porch!
The main structure is already there. It's a 20 x 30 open shed. The area I'm using is a 10 x 10 area with a 10 x 20 run. I need to alter it so that the covered 10 x 10 area can be closed up at night. Started yesterday by de-constructing and decluttering the area. I've been gathering supplies that have been stowed in various places. Even though I'm anxious to get this done I expect it to be a multi-day project. I hope I can get it completed in a week but even that might be a challenge. The outside part of the run is a mishmash of various fencing materials added to over the years as needs changed. Haven't gotten far enough to decide whether to leave it as is and make do - or completely re-do that part also.
The work never ends around here! Bu t what else would I do with my time...?
