Our unusual trees at The Ranch:
Been awhile since I have posted anything about the ranch.
We have been busy clearing fence lines. Sawing up fallen trees (lost some to drought and to H-Ike). Picking up rusty barbwire from an old fence line we found in a stand of trees. Found out later that there was an old house and barn in this area. Makes more sense since we found a hand dug water well in this area. The rancher that runs cows on the land put an old round bale feeder around the well to keep the calves out. We have been worried about the tank running dry. Worries over... we had a huge rainstorm (dropped over 4 inches in 24 hours) and the tank is running over. YEAH!!
I planted daffodil bulbs last fall - Dan laughed at me - said they were pig food. Well the pigs did get some, but I had daffodils this spring. (Now that they are bigger either the deer or cows are eating the tops off of them... oh well!)
Still working on the barn/shed plans. Latest news is Tracy has signed up to take a welding class so she can weld her pipe fence and the cattle pens.
Biggest news is that the old tower is down and removed. YEAH!
I have added pictures taken at the ranch.
