the males on this place surprise me. I don't think a woman could or would have done this. Kawasaki's are good but they are not planes, tanks, nor water vehicles, or this one's not, anyway
This tale began when the deer and other varmints began decimating our garden. The garden lays along the spring branch which runs into a pond, then overflows into the creek. The males plotted and planned their attack.
Hubby is driving at break neck speeds, I'm sure. He has Andrew holding a flashlight (the headlights were not reaching out far enough)...did I forget to say, this was all in the dead of night.
When they chased the deer out of the garden, they failed to remember there's an outlet to the pond! I find this strange because Hubby built the overflow. Maybe in the excitement of the chase, Hubby thought he could jump it, who knows what goes on in those two heads when they're on an adventure! Hubby says Andrew wasn't holding the light right, Andrew says Hubby wasn't watching...this is the result of both, I would say.
At least the deer left the garden for a while and, after all, that was the goal, right?
Daylight came and the Mule was removed, undamaged...and we wonder why the equipment breaks down around here. Need I say more?
a tale of tails, tenacity, and tedium, as told by me, usually barefoot and bellowing

I Never Dress...
and I should know better!! Marcy always has her camera...and she caught me on the rock hunt in my fashionable night gown and my camo rubber boots.
Three years ago, I would not publish any pictures of me, now, I show you my favorite purple night gown!
Scoping out the rocks I want as hubby drives...he still can't lift from his heart surgery but doc said he could drive so he drives the mule, the tractor, the lawnmower and the truck. Stubborn!
Finding the perfect rock is an adventure. I have an area in the yard that needs steps and I am working on building them with rocks.
On a farm, you can never just do one thing...had to clean the culvert and I had lots of canine helpers. Hoping the rains slow and the bad weather stays clear...I can't keep up with the repairs!
