Today, our barn footing passed inspection, which means ... the cement pad will be poured tomorrow. Our "cement guy" Chris says he'll be starting at 5.30am in the morning if we want to come and watch. We'll probably get there about 9am. I don't get back from the school run until about 8am, and then it'll be getting everything ready to go and driving down there. I def want to get pics of them doing it though, it's all part of this journey.
The Thuja saplings all seem to be taking their transplanting pretty well. We took more mulch today, we want them well mulched and babied so they grow like these in this picture.
My fruit trees are also due in this week, so that'll be some more planting going on. Lowe's loves us right now, we are buying so much stuff to do this all right. For posterity, saith she.
Two of the stray dogs are getting used to the sound of my voice thruogh the trail cam. They do look up when they hear me, and occasionally head a few paces away, but then - when they realise there's no threat - they head back to eat and semi-ignore me.
A couple of the deer have been the same, but the others scatter. Oh well. Hopefully, when I am over there more, they will get better used to me and I'll be able to enjoy them closer.
We've ordered our bees for April 11th pick up (I forgot we had to order ahead and the first shipment was completely sold out). We'll have 2 hives this year. We learned from our mistakes of last year so hope these will thrive. I'm def giving them plenty of food sources!
God is so good, everything is coming together beautifully. I am very content.
