Just a FYI, the Riseup VPN client for windows seems to be broken after the latest round of updates. Luckily, it's pretty easy to use the standard OpenVPN client.

It ain't going to be much use for this growing season but greenhouse progress is churning along. One of the pipes took out our internet (it wasn't where it was marked lol) so that was an ordeal, but hey, at least now we know where it is.

Picture of a skeleton frame of a metal greenhouse being erected. There is a gooseneck trailer that is acting as a mobile gin pole (a device used to lift hoops into position and keep them from twisting as they are fitted over pipes driven into the ground). There is a welder/generator in the picture because when the greenhouse was used by the previous owners, they made modifications that need to be fixed for our purposes

Don’t particularly favor my chances of crossing the creek today when it’s doing this on top of the hill. Guess it’s a good day to be lazy 🤷‍♀️

A spring that usually trickles less than half a gallon a minute that is now a torrent.

@bgkysparky.bsky.social Thought you’d get a kick outta this. It’s not often I come across something electrical that surprises me but I’ll be damned if I can figure this one out. Best guess is somebody wanted a fraction of a millisecond delay between two side by side fixtures coming on lol.

A photo of a marine rated electrical cable being used in a storage building. it connected side by side fixtures but instead of being a straight run, a loop was pulled back and stapled in place.

Where the cable comes out on the other side of the loft floor joist.

Neighbor: Want a pile of scrap? Me: Sure! (expecting typical pipe and such) The Junk: Score! Find some less junk tires and a little paint and it’ll be a nice little forecart complete with brakes.

Free forecart I yanked out of a neighbors fence row earlier today.

Twins born last night, one has bent leg and was abandoned by momma in the lower pasture because she can’t walk. Guess who has a house pet to bottle feed?

One lamb of a pair of twins experiencing bent leg syndrome. Thats not particularly rare in twins but she will be bottle fed in the house because she can’t stand to nurse.

Went out to feed only to find a new surprise in the farmyard. Lamb #2 for the month, first one I got to watch being born from a tractor seat lol. Momma is from a bunch we just got from a bad situation, but she’s starting to put some weight back on.

New lamb in a pile of hay with a watchful momma right behind her

Have you ever felt like completely done? Like today was bad enough when the refrigerator took a shit, but having a kid run up your hill to scream in your door "There's a snake in the house!!! Like a SSSSST snake!" broke me somehow lol.
