We put out hay for the first time this winter. It's Nelson's good grass hay. Everybody loves it.
Speedy found it first in the sheep pasture.
The cattle got their hay earlier. They made a big dent in it and had to sit down and chew for a while. We got them a new hay ring. Lisa picked it up in Liberty at the same scratch and dent place where we get the gates. It keeps them from pushing the hay around and pooping in it. We're going to use the old hay rack in the second sheep pasture.
As always there was some fencing to do. We added a second stretcher brace in the corner at the grade break. It made for a good transition to the lower area. There was some movement in the corner after the big rains last week. This should help with that.
The debris on the ground is the old posts and chunks of lumber we used to plug the holes along the bottom of the old crappy fence. We shouldn't be needing any of that now. Lisa was compacting the dirt around the last post. I was driving around on the tractor. It looked like I was driving around randomly but I was making crop circles to signal the mother ship for the 2012 zombie apocalypse. Sorry, alpacalypse.
The final stretch. It's ready for animals now. That t-post was already there. It was only a couple of inches out of line so we left it in place. It looked fine after Lisa put the clips on.
