Whatcha Up To???

Took Dieter to the vet for his shot.

Picked up molasses tubs & hit the package store.

Watered the garden, asparagus, Crape Myrtles, porch pots & hanging baskets.

Rebait & set the coon trap by the bird feeding station. Also moved their water trough as I think the coon is launching itself off of it. I'll see...

Had a brief passing shower this afternoon, just enough to increase the humidity.

Went to LaGrange to get my haircut, drop off the returns at the UPS store & do the weekly shopping.

Put the molasses tubs out.

Shred along our roads.

Grandson came to feed the cattle for me.

Made 2 loaves of Italian bread.

Cleaned & refilled the hummingbird feeders. We don't have any at all but the woodpecker was squawking about them being empty, LOL!!!

R&R the GPU card in Mrs. Ranch's computer.

Cleaned the weather station (rain gauge was starting to act up). Shortly afterwards, we received 0.36" of rain. We are back in business!!!

Harvested a tub of tomatoes.

Had the septic tanks cleaned out.

Fed the cattle.

Rebaited the coon trap.

Removed the bird feeders so I can finish painting the feeder station. I also applied a coat of Lexel where the hangers meet the feeder bodies as the coon if flipping them over.

Harvested another bucket of tomatoes. I have to start processing/canning them tomorrow...

 

[w_r_ranch]

Got another coon. They are still ahead 5-2, but I will prevail in the end. Grandson brought his trap down to help too.

Picked up another load of cattle feed.

Prepped & canned whole tomatoes. We got 12 quarts.

 

[w_r_ranch]

Watered the porch pots & hanging baskets.

Made tomato sauce. I'll can it tomorrow.

Grandson came down to feed the cattle for me before going fishing.

Then we sat on the back porch enjoying some quiet time, just watching the mockingbird babies learning to fly & hunt.

Canned the tomato sauce from yesterday. We got 13 pints out of that batch.

Watered the porch pots & hanging baskets.

Worked on coon-proofing the redbird feeders. Once that was done, I refilled the feeders & baited the coon trap. It's a big one as he can jump pretty high to get over the barrier...

H&H garage door company out of LaGrange came to replace a broke spring pair. They need to special order them, but was they were able to do a temporary repair so we can use the door in the meantime. Slicker than snot!!!

 

[w_r_ranch]

Watered the garden, asparagus, Crape Myrtles, porch pots & hanging baskets.

Did the weekly shopping & then went to the feed store for a sack of sunflower seeds & a galvonized trash can.

No coon in the trap, although it did eat all the bait...

 

[w_r_ranch]

Light rain here this morning. I was going to cut the grass...

Watered the porch pots & baskets.
