Well, the calendar said it was really Thursday, but it sure worked out like a Monday... you know how it is. You feel that you should have just stayed in bed and pulled the covers over your head?

We have been busy fixing the floors in the hen houses, replacing the wire floor and pulling the boards up. Last week Matt was trying to pull a board and it came down on his foot. Spent most of the afternoon at the hospital with him for puncture wounds. This week we were working on the culvert pipe so the water would go through it instead of over it.

Yesterday - Thursday - wound up being like Monday!

While digging around the end of the culvert where we are going to place some rock, ended up hitting the water line to the well. Most people that live on property have simply learned how to fix things... you become a plumber, electrician, mason.. what ever it may take. Finally got it fixed, for the most part.

Today we tried to find our bull... been missing for a few days. We have been so busy trying to get the water fixed here at the house that we put the "missing" bull on the back burner. Today, we found him on the other side of the creek. The bull must have crossed a few days ago when the water level was down, and it has since rained and the water level has come up. The bull is visiting the neightbors and doesn't seem to want to come home right yet... We will need to go and pick up some of our portable panels and set them up so we can catch him in a pen then load him in a trailer to haul him home. Will try to get this done in the next day or two... where are all of those volunteers?
