I am very eager (some would say impatient) to get things happening to move us towards our farm goals, but you can’t build fences when the ground is frozen solid…. Fences need to wait until spring.
What we can do… Plan where things will go eventually. We tried putting stakes out to mark where our future buildings will be built; but that was almost impossible with the frozen ground too.
People who know me well, know that patience is not one of my strengths. It seems like we have been waiting forever.
- First we had to find the right piece of land… We did that a year and a half ago.
- Then we had to wait for the sale to go through
- Then we had to get plans drawn and permits approved and then wait for the house to be built.
- There were extra waits because last summer was so wet they could not pour concrete in our basement – it was all mud.
- Finally we were able to move in in November 2020. BUT, we can’t do anything with the land until spring…
I have figured out a way to get some things happening, to move forward. I have ordered two horse shelters on skids. I am going to modify them, which is excellent in two ways
- I will have a projects to keep me busy and moving forward.
- We will have shelters for two groups of animals (stay tuned to find out more 🙂
The sheds should be delivered in a week or two. I am waiting…. almost patiently.
