Good luck with those holes @CntryBoy777 !! Maybe the biggest roots will not be in the way.
BTW, mark that sewer line with rebar or something. You just KNOW that someday you will NEED to find it and won't remember exactly which post it is near.

It isn't that common around here but everyone's heard of or had it. A lot of people smoke a whole roll with a grape jelly and mustard mix rubbed on. With other meats bbq'ed and people bringing other plates and sides the Bologna is ALWAYS jumped on no matter what else is a round.
And I do like it fried, even on a PB&J. weird but good.

The goat jumping off, LLOFL!! my buck used to back flip off everything including my horses..I was riding once and he jumped on her right shoulder and horns got stuck in bridle, she my horse slung him around and ripped bridle off then tried trampling him. He is now in someone's freezer. Little ****. My husband is very DIY, we have 110 acres with woods and we have locus trees I think that's what they're called. we make our buildings, fencing, pens and gardenshe out of the boards we have cut from our trees. We are very self sufficient on our farm and I'm glad to see more people getting back to that way. This spring were training horses for logging, and eventually pulling equipment we converted into horse powered.

@Novasark that sounds really interesting. If I were in better health I'd like to get a good mule team and work them. I've always liked them and the draft horses, but I just have to enjoy others now...it wear me out just rigging them up and I sure couldn't afford to feed em.
I am anxious to follow your "Journal Page" when ya get one started....and oh the Pics!....

So, today I made 3 "Round Trips" to town and back for 15 poles...had 11 open holes, now 4 poles Waiting for holes.....
this is the last line to dig, it will run to the right of the cedar tree. There is a drainage pipe and inlet water line between these points and trees to boot. The line will include 1 gate, but I have to go between 2 trees to be able to get to the back corner of the temporary fence that I threw up there. Herre is another pic looking back at this first spot....
it is about in this spot that the gate will be....and....
it is to the right of this tree that I have to make a corner to "Tie" back into, when I put in the permanent fence, enclosing this pen with a much Bigger area for both birds. Tho, I can't get it done without digging the holes. I have 10 left to do, but 2 of them will be close to corner posts, 1 at the Herd House, and the other at the gate to the existing pen. So, gonna do those last when I'm ready to Set them...so I don't weaken the intergrity of what is there right now...the old post is rotten, and the bird gate is on an unbraced post. I hope that made sense.
On the animal front had to "Tangle" with the Boys this evening, I've reached my limit on them trying to Control everything, so I ran the Boys around the yard pushing them with my knee, and separating them from her and forcing them back to their Bucket, and no xtra "Treats". I don't "Reward" bad behavior. Anyway, that was the "Goat Drama" today.

We have had our share of sheep drama. We cut back on food for the ewes since the lambs are now getting all they want in the creep feeder. I had no idea those girls could be that loud.
