As you can see we've been pretty busy around here lately.
Tammy dug a bunch of the potatoes yesterday and I have to pull those kidney beans today, been finding other things to do for too long.
We got a bunch of the fence remade around the perimeter of the place. Took down the old mesh and put up 3 strands of electrified barbed wire. Haven't had a heifer get out yet! I was going to pasture the new seeding but learned that you should let the stand alone from about Sep 1 to Oct 1 as that's the time the plants send energy down to the roots so they will be able to grow next year. So the cows will have to wait a month.
Finally got that hay baled. Only 140 bales but with it being just grass and rained on twice I didn't expect too much.
On the last trip home with the rake I popped one of the rear tires on the tractor so I will have to get that replaced before I get any fall plowing done. Boy are those things expensive!
