Went out yesterday ad cleaned on corrals until the ground started giving away from under the pressure of the tires on the tractor. Still awful wet under there, tho’ it looks dry on top. Then I went up in Harry’s and fixed a washed out crossing.
Went out today and worked on the fence in a washed out crossing between Harry’s and the rocky hill pasture. Came home and got the tractor and went up and worked on re-building a washed out crossing north of the house. It took lots of dirt to cover the culvert back up. The culvert had washed out and washed down about a 400 yards. Last time I tried to fix it there was too much water running and it kept washing the culvert to a new spot so I’d given up. Not much water running down the creek at the moment. Chance brought the boys up, so them and Cindy and I went to Punkin Center to get the oil changed on her car while we ate. Got some other stuff and went back to work on the crossing when I got back home. Then went out this evening and put a good ride on my 4 year old, Pilgrim. Man, I hate riding colts! Got to poke and peddle them everywhere! But it will be worth it when he’s a dirty good , broke booger! 🙂
