Beach Trip 2024
Ambien Buy No Prescription Rented the beach house in Rodanthe again this year and had almost the entire family down. Emily & Randy couldn’t make it as Randy has a new job, and of course Patrick is still hiking the CDT.

First Marriage Proposal at the Farm!
Mark D. called to ask if he could practice some pistol shooting at the farm with his girl friend, Elizabeth K. He also said he was planning to propose to her while they were here. I texted him an entire list of places on the farm that were private and romantic.

They stopped back at the house before they left, both visibly happy and joyful. I asked where did you propose?
- Under the huge oak tree in the back field? No
- On the deck of the gray house? No
- On the dock overlooking the big pond ? No
- By the shady ford at Mine Run? No

Another Chicken Move Day in the Books
Might be one of my last chicken move days. Our intern and fiance have been doing much of the work for the last few moves. Only reason I was involved today was that the tractor was necessary to move the eggMobile. These moves typically consume at least 90 minutes. This is the third move for the ‘big’ hens, will be the last one around the orchard.
Turkey Whisperer Reports Baby Turkeys Are Roosting!

Summer Pool Party & Pot-Luck
Invited a slew of folks over for a pool party and pot-luck dinner yesterday afternoon. This year we started a little later at 5pm, which worked out very well. Kids got at least 3-4 hours of pool time and the temperature was starting to go down by the time it all started. We had SO much food, people brought some really tasty items.
As it got dark we started in on the fireworks that were left over from the fourth of July. One of the guests brought a few mortars too!

Dropping & Bucking Up Three Pine Trees
The farmer just harvested the wheat and planted the beans, so a short window to be able to drop some trees into the field without damaging crops. The frontier wife helped me, we started early but it was a very hot day. I’m not a particularly experienced chainsaw operator but all went well, was super careful with clearing around the trees for an escape route and placing the cuts properly.
Dropping the trees was easy, the trimming and cutting into log lengths and disposing of the branches was time consuming and tedious. When the tree is down and the branches under compression you have to be very careful not to either have the branch whip out and hit you or roll the tree onto you.
Buy Ambien Generic While I trimmed, the frontier wife used the tractor with the grapple to move the branch bundles off the field.
The next evening I was able to get the boom pole on the tractor and drag the logs back to the sawmill.
Fruit is Ripening
https://rqes.ca/base/noxadat/ Lots of fruit in the orchard is ready to pick. Wild grapes are seen in many places on the farm. This year the peaches in the orchard are going crazy, literally breaking branches.
