I got a frantic phone call just a little while from my Mom. Apparently one of my horses was out. Not sure about the why or how exactly. My folks had managed to get him back with the lure of some grain, which mind you, he does not need at all. We had a conversation about the fence and the charger. Apparently it is not working at all. I am not sure at this point what the problem is exactly. I suggest a fresh set of batteries, as it is wireless – in a different sense if you get my drift.
It has been a couple of hours now but I just got another one of those calls. This one not as frantic, but with the same message generally speaking. Jack is out of the paddock and I am going to have to do something in the morning about the situation and figure out what is going on with the fence. I am so in concurrence on this, but I have to wonder just exactly what has gotten his feathers up all the sudden. And apparently, he is going through the fence with taking the whole thing down – but just knocking one strand off or something.
Once again I have been more than a week or two with getting a post on here. The holidays got kind of crazy and the work schedule did not help that picture any at all. Anyway, in an effort to get caught up once again I thought I would catch a few topics that have caught my attention once again in a bulleted post or two, given each subject a little bit shorter attention then I would normally give to it. Topics I plan to touch on include composting animal carcasses, horse slaughter – again, raw milk, grain price trends, and fuel costs. I may of course hit something else in there as well, but at least those will get some attention.
