Herbie did the milking this morning. I was in the kitchen, saw him come out the pasture with the cow. One cat and 2 lambs following.
Fish and Wanda behaved themselves during their school visit yesterday, Wanda wasn't too well again, a bit of bloat, so I was force-feeding her with the bulb syringe again, and then gave her a dose of bicarb. She's much better this morning, pushing for her share of the bottle.
Need to go get the car license renewed today, and buy new tips for the plasma cutter. We got some metal piping and plate from the metal scrap place in Ovid when we picked up the farm gates we found on CL on Tuesday, so Herbie could fix the front of the tractor which keeps breaking. Some previous owner put a half pipe in place where a whole pipe should have been, and it is just not strong enough, so Herbie, with Erics' help, put another bar in place. The half round broke when he was using it yesterday to load manure, but the round bar inside held. Eric came over on Tuesday evening to pick up some eggs and beef, and helped with the tractor while I sort of watched his 2 sons, Sage and Nolan. Liz, his wife was at a class, so he was babysitting.
Didn't get the asparagus and rhubarb planted yet, but Herbie put the 1-bottomed plow on the little tractor for me so I can dig the trench for them today. Then after I've done that, I need to switch it out to the 2-bottomed plow so I can do the vegetable rows.
