October 23, 2011

So far the weather has been holding and it looks like we may actually get our wet hay up without much further delay. It has been an incredible frustrating fall, but we'll make it through it. We spent most of last week building fence around our winter pasture. It's been slow going ... tearing out the old fence and putting in 5 new wires, but we're getting there.

We had a great opening weekend of duck season and the pups did a great job. This weekend ... not a single duck in the area. The irrigation canals were drained this week and I suspect the ducks are feeding in those instead of the ponds. The pups had a rough morning yesterday ... it's tough keeping two 5-1/2 old pups focused when they get bored from no ducks to retrieve.

I had the opportunity to speak at the Perry Tech graduation last week for the Electrical Technology and Instrumentation classes. What a great honor. I also got to tour the new Welding Lab area at Perry Tech ... very, very nice facility.

This week I'm headed over to Olympia on Thursday for a Caucus Retreat on Friday. I'll get to go to Cabela's too ... hehehehe, time for goodies.

My lovely, kind and extremely supportive wife's birthday is tomorrow ... she's turning 29 again! Make sure a wish her a Happy Birthday.

It's time to head out, fill water troughs and keep building fence. Have a great day and week everyone.
