After a few weeks of closure, it's business as usual here. My longing to return re-affirms my belief that church is much more than a Sunday morning Gospel message. Among other things, it is encouraging, warning, and sharing time with brothers and sisters of like precious faith.

Sheep and goats. My smart answer for everything.

I've often thought that a good way to breed cattle would be if one could buy highly adapted maternal females from somebody nearby and breed to a very paternal terminal bull. All offspring is sold and any needed replacements are purchased each year.

I'd like to say something mean about his haircut, but...I'm afraid he's watching us here.

We switched from PasturePro to Timeless, and love them. The Timeless corners and ends seem ridiculously expensive...just use a telephone pole or hedge post. We didn't thread through the holes, but just bought a big roll of soft galvanized wire and used short pieces to twist the fence wire to...
