Hey, I mean Hay!

So I bought some hay. Actually it is straw, but that doesn't have a nerdy pun I can think of.

Dara and I pushed the bale out of the truck and it landed pretty much where I wanted it. Which is good because that is not going anywhere now.

This is one of the reasons I got the straw. I will pull straw from the back to put down in the garden between the raised beds. A post will be coming soon when I do that. I swear those were my first three arrows from 25 yards. 

This is project "kill a bunch of grass and plant corn".  Soon I will move this tarp that has been down for a month and a half, and plant three kinds of corn in the block where the grass was. In the background you can see the squash and beans I planted along the fence line.

Pony Poop

So we received a couple packages in the mail for someone with

 the same address as us except for the town, next town over. 

I took the packages to the other house, which isn't far 

from our house, and on the way I saw a sign for "free manure".

 Well if you know me you can guess how long it took until 

my truck bed was full of poop. The farm I got it from have a

 couple pony's. They spread hay and saw dust on the floor

 and pile the manure mix next to their barn. See it

 pays to do something good once in a while.
