Farm Happenin's

I may have spoken too soon.

Last week, spring reappeared for exactly 12 hours. But what a lovely 12 hours it was.

Unless you count the Rodent Rescue. That I could've done without.



While Yoda is with us no more, he will live on in our hearts...*cough*

And we will continue to acquaint ourselves with his relatives, farm style.

With our 12 hours of spring, we started another project.

If you have a homestead or farm, fencing is an on-going project. Since our goats have been cooped up in a small yard for much of winter, we designated a portion of field just for them.

Fencing is a family affair.

 Since we already have a board fence around the field, we used 32-inch tall field fencing and attached it to the inside of the existing fence.

...a re-purposed walk-through gate!



I'm thinking about painting this gate red to match the livestock gates.

What with the grass always being greener on the other side of the fence and all, we'll be adding an electric wire around the top...just in case.

The weatherman is promising us another day of sunshine this week.

That means we'll have 12 more hours to start something else!

A goat rain shelter perhaps?☺
