Front pond water fountain

Here's what we did today to move the water in front pond and lessen mosquito breeding area. We used an old piece of barnwood, cut an old hose, and bought a $40 sump pump. We anchored the piece of wood with the hode thru it in middle of pond. Its working awesome.

Phoenix baby

So we are in the house today after our front pond water fountain project and we hear a goat let out a yell. It was the kind of yell that tells you something is wrong. We ran out to the field and saw Phoenix laying down. She was in the area where the yell came from. We walked up to her and as we did I saw a slimy mess...it was a baby. Unbeknownst to us she was prego. She had a lil black + white baby girl. We named her Maori.

After the rain.

Where is everyone?  ;-).

BMA in action

 A few pics of the canal system on our property.  When it is available it is a great blessing to see those tanks filling.

New tanks attached just in time

Got a couple inches of rain over the past couple days and were able to capture some of it.  What a blessing we've needed it for some time.   Hopefully we are back to a normal precipitation schedule.
