    I've moved, and I have a real job (still no haircut)

    Well my mechanic days are over. Sure miss tinkering on cars and trucks. Once my Dad passed it took all the fun out of it. He was a great mechanic and machinist. Now I like to sit on the back porch, drink coffee and think about rebuilding the tran in a 1992 toyota t100.

    Rain vs no rain

    9” at dfw airport flooding all around here, 2 1/2 inches at the farm in dew. Supposed to rain for a couple of days. Time to spread rye grass seed. This rain should help deer hunters food plots and our fields.

    Liquid feed

    I am down to ten head. My neighbor is going to put out 3/4 of a bag of cubes twice daily. Luckily I bought 40 bags when they were $10.25 a bag. I paid . 15 1/2 cents per pound for liquid feed. I will probably cull a little more when I return.
