Haunting Barn

We had a Haunting Barn set up for Halloween Sunday for the children. It went pretty well considering the wind gusts and the drop in temperature. We put our tent poles up in the barn and covered them with black plastic. Then decorated it with lights, webs, and the usual scary stuff.

We had a rough Saturday night with the visiting boy. He through one of his worst fits. It seems like it is always around bedtime. He’s up all day at school then tries to stay up most of the night even though we send him to bed at 8 PM. It is getting old.

It looks like some good things are heading our way. There should be plenty to celebrate this Holiday Season. More to follow on that.

Trying to move the goats over to the barn. It is going slow. I have to put up a fence first. The goats still haven’t had kids yet. They are getting big but nothing yet.

We did get a new horse. Her name is Midnight Beauty. She is very gentle it seems. She has become top mare. HD runs from her. I haven’t had a chance to ride her yet. Apollo is moving to another place. The liability of having someone else’s animals out there while we have other people’s children is too great. I don’t want to be sued.

If my chickens don’t start laying eggs, they are going to the cutting block.

Delores is off the property. She is telling anyone who will listen that we are kicking her off the property. Whatever. All I care about is I don’t have to put up with her out there any more.
