Hay Shed
I am very glad the hay shed has finally arrived. Want to Thank Bucky for doing the foundation and being there to make sure the shed was placed where I needed it.
Hay Shed is fairly close to where the horses are, so feeding shouldn't be a problem.
More than enough room to put a years worth of hay in, for 3 horse's and a sheep.
Below you can see the Shed being placed on the blocks.
During the 3 day Holiday, Christmas, Yule, what ever you want to call it, the family did a lot of fencing.
We wanted to get as much done as possible, so the horse's and sheep can finally have a place to run and play.
Being in that round pen this long, is hard on them.
The gates are in, a 6' for use to walk through during feed and so on and a 12', so if I need to use the tractor we will be signing for, hopefully, sometime today, it will be easy to do work in the pasture.
All that is left to do is build a housing for the Charger, get it plugged in, will be using an extension cord for awhile and get the grounding rods connected.
As soon as we can do this, the horse's can go into their new home.
We are hoping before next Autumn, we can get power and water too the shed, so it will be much easier to do the chores.
But right now the funds are tapped out.
Slowly we are getting the place set up nicely for both the humans and animals. ;O)
Grammy is a wonderful Artist and I have a couple of original paintings and a couple of prints on Canvas.
So I decided to put her wonderful Art in the Hallway of our new place, for all to see.
I have one more piece to put up but the frame was damaged.
The blank space on the wall is where it will go.
Image Kind had a 40% off sale on and I wanted to check the quality of their prints, since I haven't done that in awhile. Do miss the lush green of the old farm, so I love having this on the Wall. It is called, "Time Lost". Fitting I think.
I also bought the panoramic of Mt St Helens I captured and that came out, very, very well. Will try to get a photo of it soon as DH has his stuff off the mantel.
This morning I decided to play with my slowly dying camera. Its frustrating me no end and wish Santa would bring me another one, one that works very well, isn't broken and able to do what I want. But until that happens....
This is one of the photos I took, that I liked. The other is on my Art page if anyone wants to take a look.
Family has been staying busy. Not sure what we are going to do over the Holidays. Most likely continuing to work on the new place.
But we will see.
It is however, wonderful to have the family all together again!! VBG
At long last, the horse's new home. Nothing fancy, just a double bay run in shed, with a wee tack room on the end. Here you see it on the trailer.
Then tilting the trailer back aiming for the blocks. Who ever made the rule in this county, that we had to use block, has never lived on a Farm. Would of been better on a level gravel base.
Of course my heart was in my throat through this whole process.
A Nice Oak framed, Amish built, Board and Batten Run in Shed.
Hopefully we will be able to get the fence buttoned up this weekend and the horse's can finally have the run of their night pasture!
DH bought me Moonstruck Chocolate for Christmas!
And I had to put it under our little Yule Tree.
Just a table top sized one but we like it. Makes the house smell wonderful.
Well..... and with a big tree, we would most likely have cat's helping us with things in the tree and that would make the holidays a wee bit more interesting than we need.
So small is good!
Since the run in shed is arriving this Monday, I decided we need to work on the fencing a bit. Nice to have another section finished and the brace for the larger of the two gates in.
