A Late Night

 All that drizzly weather yesterday and last night produced a total of just a half of an inch but it came so slowly that everything soaked in. 

Ruth and I walked this morning. It turned out that my phone had accidently been on airplane mode and I was not getting anyone's texts or phone calls all day. We walked over to see the new barn going up and realized that the gravel on Diane's drive was covered with sticky mud that clung to our shoes. We ended up trying to clean that off with the grass on the side of the road. Brian was here installing the electric for the garage when I got home.
He worked most of the day but we were thrilled with what he got accomplished. That white thing hanging on the wall is a car charger, Mark is working on the two garage door openers. 
I needed to get a bale moved in for the weanings and needed Mark to help with that as I didn't want them running out when the gate was opened. They were grained first and that kept them busy while I cleaned out the net wrap. Those silly weanlings, they all think the other buckets must have more in them than their own.

When Mark brought the bale they were still busy.
Once that job was done we took the truck over to Joan's to move a the camper that needs the table repair over here. Below Mark is putting the chocks under the tires so he can unhook it from the truck.
We parked it next to the barn so it can be plugged in.
He went over to Joan's drain the water out of the fresh water tanks of two of the campers there then came back and did this one getting ready to winterize 3 of them. The 4th is rented out tomorrow.  As we will be storing them inside I needed to move the hay around.
They hay on the left side of the barn needed to be stacked better. Below is after I got it restacked.
That leaves us enough room between the two stacks to bring the campers in for winter storage.
The arena needed to be cleaned up of any left over hay that fell off of the round bales as I was moving them.
That hay was put in the stalls. Waste not want not, a favorite saying of all of my ancestors. We went over to check out the progress on Mike's barn after the workers left. They got the extra boards up on the roof. The metal was delivered and tomorrow they will start on that.
We skipped supper, left for church at 6:10 pm. Tim Roecker had the message tonight. Click HERE to listen to that. He mentioned that we should share what God has done for us at Culvers tonight during his message so that is what we did while eating a late supper. We stayed and visited until 9:30 pm. A late night!
