    I think it great that Kevin takes on theses projects! Sure it may first be about the money, but in the end I feel it's more of the coming together of the family. The more anyone of them can get under there belt, the better off they'll be down road. You and Kevin must both have some great parents, I see it in you both in how you take the time and the love to show them things. You all seem to have a lot of fun no matter what you are doing. I love the way you and MacKenzie interact! I love the fact that, everytime the camera is on her she is clowning around, Cute!! I was watching the one video on your garden and noticed something! Looked like MacKenzie had done one more sweet thing for mom and painted her nails. God hold a Great place for such Wonderful and Beautiful Family like Yours! Happy Fourth! Stay Sweet and Loving! God Bless!

    It does not matter how many near calving cows you get moved in to calving pens as there will always be one that calves in the manure passage when you do not expect it to calve , the calf is usually ok after a clean .
    I hope the rain stops soon.

    Perhaps, a raised garden bed would serve you better allowing excess water to drain off. The use of hay bales topped with topsoil would allow for improved water control and weed control!🙂

  • @shmsin
    @shmsin 3 года назад

    The reason the leaves dry out - it seems that the soil is salty due to too much cow dung on the field. If you want to spray cow dung in your fields, you can mix it with grass to desaltize and spray - mixing cow dung and grass will desalinate because rainwater seeps in (Translated by Google)

      I don't recall the exact location, but I have a humorous memory from there. My Uncle and a close family friend (two rather large practical jokers) pulled the oil fill cap on a running diesel with unbelievable blow-by whilst standing in close proximity. They would have been prime candidates for the leading roles in Dumb & Dumber with their black freckles all over their faces and Carhartt overalls! Bless'ns to ya, Tedd
