New horses arrived, trenching for the new hydro service is underway, horses have been trimmed, Christmas decorated has begun, shelter wall goes up...
My Dad started the trenching for the central metering for our new hydro service. This is an anticipated additional to the farm...especially for DH. He doesn't even have enough power to hook up his compressor at the moment and the arena lighting cannot be upgraded until this gets changed.
My dad just loves playing around on his tractor and digging is the thing he is known for. ("Groundhog Trenching Service") I don't think he had a sand box when he was a kid with Tonka toys!
Groundhog Trenching service hard at work.
The Trench so far.
...still another 100 feet to go before we reach the barn panel and then another trench to get to the house.
My mom was busy doing those tedious jobs...like mudding the holes in all the walls on the second floor. That doesn't sound like a big job but if you have seen the second floor walls you would know otherwise. The guest room was especially terrible including dozens of holes in the ceiling. DH and I no longer looking in the bathroom mirror and thinking we are seeing a big black bug on the wall now that the hole opposite the mirror has been patched!
Mom also has a real amazing knack for arrangements. She took care of preparing the driveway planters with the Christmas greenery. Drove in tonight and seen these 2 beautiful pots and it sets a happy mood driving up the driveway.
Thanks Mom...they look especially wonderful with horses in the background! :-)
DH spent his wonderful warm Sunday afternoon closing in one wall of the old run in shelter my girls are living in. No more hurricane wind blowing directly on my girls now! Thank you Honey...you always but the girls and I first...even tho Sunday would have been a perfect day for the track.
