Coffee anyone ?

[Mother Hen]

Good Morning all!
All this talk of greenhouses is making me want one NOW . It would be a good investment so I would be able to grow fresh veggies all year long plus I could always do starter plants for my flower beds even though I'm bad with keeping them clean (example is attached). It was only 1/2 done in this pic and I didn't take a before pic. I am thinking about RAISED GARDEN BEDS though seeing how I can barely move this AM from all that work on that flower bed yesterday but I can honestly say it was very therapeutic.

Coffee is good. Taking girls to water park this morning. My favorite is the Lazy River.

We got two and put them together back to back to make one "big" one.

SOOO CLEVER!!!!!

Not only chugging coffee this AM but I found caramel cold brew M&M's!!!! Gonna have the twitches soon if I keep munching on these.

Both cows still in the pasture when I got home - Good, Sweet, Obedient Girls!

I walked the section of pasture that I had planned to open for them - which, by the way, feeds the charge to the section they've BEEN IN.... and it wasn't even connected.

Geeze... so, fence connected - new section opened = happy cows, hopefully contained. Also got the backrubber soaking and figured out how I can hang it under the roof overhang at their entrance to the barn. I'm hoping that's going to mean that the pour-on will last longer if it can miss most of the rain.

@canesisters glad cows were in and you found the solution -- connect the wires. Blooper fixed.

@SageHill trained not to pee on?! Cool!! But that garden area looks too perfect to use. What's all the white? A crushed gravel? I love it....very park-like.

@Baymule ...have fun!! I know you will

Sun is thinking about showing up...but...iffy. possible scattereds later and all day tomorrow, like yesterday . Messing me up.

Looks good!! And we ALL have before pics (oh yeah - and not showing the large areas of the ranch that're head high in wild geranium and mustard ). A greenhouse was in the plan for years - about to happen sometime this year, then the Costco one came up.

Thanks!
Yup - trained! I've worked with and shown way too many dogs that belonged to others that would just about pop my shoulder out of the socket to pee on a trash can. I'd hate to have to fix a fence post that was mark central for every
K-9! or change a tire, work on garden beds, or ... endless list.
The white stuff is DG (decomposed granite) comes in several colors - white went best with our grey house. That particular stuff was wet and tamped down hard so it's not quite concrete hard - but it's definitely very solid.

Finished my coffee - had pumpkin pancakes and sausage for breakfast. Going to take the sheep out to munch some mustard for a bit. Then help with the greenhouse and go to a rock yard to get some sort of floor material. We had to take out a raised bed to make things fit - so there's a sort of hole in the middle of one end.
