    In northern Spain there are also special countryside constructions designed to keep mice away from grain and other farming tools, they are called ''hórreos'', they are made of stone, sometimes wood too, and they stand atop four stone pillars. :-) Sending much love from Spain.

You are eating well and doing ALL the right things. The ending 'PRIDE OF PAPA' caught on vid...is something 'most precious'. Matthias and Tova, do NOT worry about tomorrow...enjoy the 'Great Treasures' you already possess. What you need will come in good order, as you surrender to the perfection of each new day and it's challenges. GRATITUDE is the ATTITUDE...without 'complaint' and you already, in your young years...HAVE IT! Health and God's blessing on you n' yours. Thank-you so very much for sharing your blessed lives with us!

    Your son is so precious !
    Get what you mean with longue days. My parents went on vacation so I have to run the farm all by myself, the animals (theirs and mine), the garden and still work my day time job (still working from home)...
    And take care of two orphan hedgehogs who need feeding every three hours.
    This is such a busy summer !!!
    Concerning the pigs, what you are buildings remind me of "chicken tractors", some portable structures. Look at it on the web. It might help or give you a few ideas.
    Trying to find the time to build one for my young geeses.
    I laughed so hard at the boys trying to figure out how to build the pig structures and the fax sounds began at 22:00. Thanks for the laughs !

Now I hardly ever have milk in the house, I will buy a gallon raw milk once in a while to make pudding for my one granddaughter who lives close. The rest I let go sour and make a semi cheese. You have a wonderful life and are so good working with nature!

    Hey you three.
    Renovate the attic, I'd line the floor of the mouse trap with corrugated iron and wood on top. There's air going through, and the grain can't rot. Sure, the roof beams are completely broken, new beams and corrugated iron, also all around, from above, a good meter. Saves you a lot of trouble in the future.
    Your cheese, I think I have to plan a tour through Sweden with my Quad and try everything with you.

It's wonderful to see young people committed to making/growing/raising their food from scratch and being as self-sufficient as you can. Here's hoping you get good weather for haying this month. Wishing your little family all the best on the off-grid farm.
