So a little update. I haven't been online much lately. It's been a rough summer health wise. It took awhile to recover from when I was in the hospital earlier this summer so alot of what I was planning on getting done never happened. Once I was able to get at things again I made some progress by building a tool shed and a feed shed but once again I ended up out of commission for a few more weeks. When finishing the roof on the tool shed I slipped and fell off the roof. I fell 9 feet and landed face down. Luckily I did not break any bones but i bruised my chest pretty bad, bit my tongue in two places and had to have stitches in my chin.
But besides the negative stuff we have had good success with the greenhouse and vegetable garden. We just had some land cleared and spread pasture seed which is starting to grow. I am hoping to start fencing it this week. I have prepared a foundation for a new barn for the goats we will be pouring the cement floor this weekend. Hopefully it will be built before the snow comes lol. Once the cement is done I will be cutting logs and milling the lumber for the barn.

Sounds like you have had a rough summer. I do hope you are on the mend, and better days are ahead for you. Nice pics of your animals.

Holy Cow - you've had a challenging time for sure! Hope things are better for you now that you have all that "badness" out of your way!

As frustrating as this summer has been we are proud of what we have accomplished and are already looking towards next year. As they say the best is yet to come.

We got the cement floor for the goats barn poured today. Construction will start later in the week. Until then I guess I will be starting their fencing
