Sally surprised me with twins yesterday. Had no idea she was pregnant. Just figured she didn't settle when everyone else kidded in the spring. She was stealing babies so I guess she found a way to have her own. Good news is after years of her having single bucks......she had two does! Yay. :)

We have a long driveway with a huge open field to the west of the drive and woods 10' from the east of the drive. (It runs North and South).

The trees act as a snow fence and drift our 1/2 mile driveway closed in the winter. So, we put up lots of snow fence out in the filed after they harvest whatever the current crop was. That was yesterday. My job was to squat and use zip ties to tie the snow fence to the metal t-posts . One in the middle one at the bottom. The oldest son did the top zip tie. (He fell off a ladder and is unable to do much).

After hundreds of squats, my legs are killing me! 57 is too old to do that many squats and still take care of 135 (I sold some) goats and milk 65! I am wobbling today! ;)

Sore is the understatement of the year. By this eve I can barely walk. Climbing the steps to the hay mow to get hay where my yearlings are then the steps into the house was an event in itself.

I am hoping my legs ease up in the next few days or I might try Banamine! (Probably not!)
