Misfitmorgan's Journal - That Summer Dust

[Bruce]

I got my travel pay so this weekend we are putting up some fencing!!

Yippee!! Money always seems to come in handy.

DH might try to cheap out and use a short peice of cattle panel as the gate...

Not the worst plan around. You don't want a heavy gate since you aren't putting in wood gate posts.

The best part about fencing is when it is done and you can use the fenced area!

 

[Bruce]

The best part sure isn't digging those post holes and hitting rocks!

 

[misfitmorgan]

luckily no rocks, we did use wood posts on the corners but only a single post.....yes i know that's incorrect, we also didnt wrap posts. This fence needs to work for winter and part of spring then it is getting taken down. The fence is "done"....i have no gate DH was all, i dont want to make a weak point, well yes but no gate is ridiculous. He is putting it in the back of their shed/house, so again no direct gate into the pasture. I knew he wouldn't let me have that.

i will see about getting pictures but you know my record.

You can always toss in a couple of extra T posts and a gate of your own. Don't use it in his presence, maybe he won't notice it

 

[misfitmorgan]

I wish

I would have to cut the role of fencing and thats not happening. The gate was ment to go on the end of the roll by the shed but now it is all stretched and stuff so i can't just stick a gate in without him noticing.

 

[Bruce]

Rats. Well I guess since he didn't want a gate, he can be the one to go in there however the access it set up.

I swear I took pictures of the new pasture yesterday but i dont see them on my phone

DH brought the two new boer girls home last night and a slightly older related buck....that will be banded. I don't know if i will breed them this year.

I could cry right now.

This is exactly what i have been looking for in a buck for 2yrs and AFTER i buy big boy here it is...and at a reasonable price

 

[CntryBoy777]

Having 2 bucks like Big Boy and this one wouldn't be a bad thing....and maybe could help ya out with breeding fees from others needing new blood in their herds up that way....
