I stopped to open the fence and the parking brake gave out and the truck rolled backwards down the hill. It ended up across the pasture sitting on top of the fence. We put up some corral panels and went down today to work on fixing it. We had some other fence work to do today also. We decided to put a gate in the hole the truck made. We were wanting a gate between the pastures along there somewhere but hadn’t decided where. Chevrolet made our decision for us.
It spun around and hit the fence on the driver’s side. It hit two metal t-posts which became wedged underneath. We had to dig and pry the posts out so we could move it.
Lulu is full of energy. It’s going to be tough sending this one out to pasture.
Lulu doesn’t eat a lot of forage yet. She does like to bite off the flowers.
Lulu likes the girls.
This is how we add concrete to a post.
We are replacing the t-posts with wooden posts on which to hang the gate.
Hanging out at the water tank in early evening.
The locust trees are in bloom. This is a beautiful time of year.
Were you running after the truck as it was going down the hill or did you just watch in horror? Good thing there wasn't too much damage.
ReplyDeleteLulu is way too cute.
I'm glad nobody got squished by the runaway truck.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering the same thing as Kathy! And just for the record...still not a single drop of rain here.
ReplyDeleteIt was more like watching in horror! Andy got rain yesterday, but we didn't get any here.
ReplyDeleteIt seemed pointless to run after it. It got up to speed pretty quickly. I was expecting it to flip over and roll into the trees.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of LuLu.
ReplyDeleteSorry about the truck.
