Coffee anyone ?

[Baymule]

On my first cup of coffee, was wide awake at 4:30. I'd rather sleep until 6 or 7, but here I am! I washed last night's dishes, made coffee, now I guess I'm waiting on daylight so I can let the sheep out in the front yard that I've got electro netted for them to graze. Then I'll have to dry lot them. Grass is about done, we are in drought and temperatures are hitting 100 to 103. Today will be their last grazing day for awhile. We need rain.

Chris and I will take down the rafters and framing on that back room today. I'll be pulling nails and stacking the lumber on saw horses to be covered up with a tarp. After repairing and replacing all the rot, I'll get gutters put up front and back, then we'll put the roof back over the patio. It will be a nice covered patio.

@Baymule are you taking Chris to new farm to help put up buildings and fence 😁. Y'all are on a roll, don't stop the engines.

Job work today 🙄 Rats! Then 4 days home. Next week a "regular" work week. Boo.

Rains late day, today. Better hussle to get home for chores before that happens 🤞 but won't need to water the garden. Only mid 80s today. Nice.😊

Starting the day with iced tea. Oncor left a notice about tree trimming but I can’t figure out which ones they’re after. I planted a Texas lilac under a line maybe that’s the culprit. I thought it would stay under 8 feet (about 6 feet now).

@Mini Horses I've given it thought. When I get to things I need help with, yup!

I realize now the dogs want in the house not because of the heat but because of Lucky’s non stop pestering. Leo (last pic) is the favorite victim.

Crockett’s turn. He actually doesn’t mind lambs crawling all over him.
Still no milk from this shaggy critter.
Leo figures out he’s safe in the water tub.

I guess Lucky thinks he is an LGD!

Did you ever watch "Dallas" on TV ???? It is sorta a "Dallas" on steroids, with the good and bad offspring in the family... set in Montana

I don't understand why people watch that sort of thing for "entertainment". Don't we have to suffer enough of it in real life?

I thought it would stay under 8 feet (about 6 feet now).

Google says 10'-15'. But it should be fine if the power company tops it.

Oh my gosh he does. The dogs ran to the front gate to bark at the UPS guy and Lucky followed. “What kind of dog is THAT?” driver asks. “Sheep dog.”
(Forgive me I don’t get a chance to make that joke very often).

@Mike CHS has a ewe that was raised with the dogs. When they run to chase UPS (from their side of the fence) she chases it too. He posted how the dogs chased, the lamb chased, and all the other weaned ewe lambs chased away that bad UPS truck!
