| We were blessed with a second nice day this weekend and were able to get a lot more work done. Today was just a family day and Nicole and the kids and I had a great time. At one point were were hauling kids in the wheelbarrows over to the wood pile and returning with wood while the kids ran back to the garden. :) The kids also helped clean out what they're calling the "chicken shack", a small room attached to the barn which may have indeed been used to house chickens at one point. While they swept and rearrange in the "shack" I hacked a defendable clear space between the barn and the invading blackberry horde. Machetes are fun |
 |
| Nicole and I started and finished our 3rd hugelkultur bed today all by ourselves. First we dig out the perimeter, then dig out the insides, all down 1 full shovel depth... |
 |
| Then we fill it with wood, most of this was very old rotten firewood. |
 |
| After this we layer other mulch materials and then... |
 |
| Cover it all back up again! Hooray our 3rd garden bed is done! (Joel came by to say hi) |
 |
| Anubis is loving our farm days. Lots of freedom, sun and dirt to roll in! |
 |
| Behind the barn we found a collection of old 1 gallon glass jugs. Cheap wine? Apple cider? We may never know. |
 |
| In the barn we found a great flatbed wagon but it needs new tubes. 4.10/3.50-4 looks like :) |

| Tenzin and his trucks :) |
