APRIL  20 2014

I SAID I WOULD... AND I DID----- THE FEEDING"STATION " IS DONE-- WELL NEARLY--- I MADE THE LEGS 4 FEET TALL-- MOSTLY SO THE 55 GAL DRUM CAN FIT UNDER IT- WHEN IT IS ON A DOLLY.... I THINK WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO CUT 6" OFF THOSE LEGS..  BUT NOT UNTIL WE GET THE ACTUAL CASTERS TO MAKE THE DOLLIE..

SETTING ME OFF IN THE    WONDER STAGE....

I ORDERED 4 "CASTERS" ( ONCE SCREWED TO A PIECE OF PLYWOOD THEY ARE A DOLLY) FOR 4.50 EACH  $18 THE 4 OF THEM-- IF THEY ARE ALREADY  attached  TO A  $3 piece of plywood... they sell for $39.95.
THAT'S WHERE THE  HIGH SCHOOL  GEOMETRY COMES IN.....

WHY DO I NEED 4?   IF 3 POINTS FOR A PLANE---
OR IN  REAL LIFE...   EVER SEEN A FARMERS OLD MILK STOOL WITH 4 LEGS..??
I BET  AS YOU STOOD THERE DAILY LOOKING AT AN OLD  FARMERS MILK STOOL YOU NEVER WONDERED THAT..
BUT HOW MANY HAVE SEEN A 4 LEGGED TABLE - OR AnythinG THAT WOBBLES

I CAN SEE IF YOU ARE BALANCING A BIG RECTANGLE YOU MIGHT NEED 4-- BUT WITH A ROUND TABLE / OBJECT... LIKE THE FEED DRUM....THE 4TH IS JUST AN ADDED  COST. 

 YOU COUL D CUT 6 INCHES OFF A 3 LEGGED TABLE AN IT WILL NOT WOBBLE-- IT WILL BE TIPPED... BUT STEADY AS A ROCK.  

MAYBE  THAT SHOULD BE MY NEXT NUTTY PROFESSOR

IF THEY GET THE SOUND ON.--I DID EMAIL JON  AND HE MADE REFERENCE TO IT-- SO IT IS ON THEIR END...

WE ARE LIMITED WITHOUT IT..

I SAID YESTERDAY I WOULD GET BENTLEY IN THE ARENA FOR SOME AGILITY  TODAY...... I ONCE OWNED ALL THE PIECES FOR A DECENT COURSE.   BUT LETS SEE IF ABOUT  NOON  I CAN MAKE HIM "GET OFF HIS DUFF" 
****************
  new person donna is here to work with denim... and denim is lovin going to bed  on the sofa in the guest house instead of the kennel..   that is one of our "subtle training methods"  make sure the new life is more interesting than  the kennel  -- 

which makes me wonder when they are coming to pick up boris--- he is ready to  resume the comforts of service dog life...
******
#1 project of today is  to count fencing....  and once i order it -- we are committed to put it in... we can not afford-- or... should not spend money on sliding those rails in and out of the posts that will remain... 99% of the posts are still good... i think they are a different wood---  plus we will have all those old rails as firewood..
#2 project is to sweep the hay loft-- must be done soon--- reason being-- that stuff on the floor of the hayloft is seeds... often called grass seeds--- well they would not pass as grass seeds in  some neighborhoods... but they grow green stuff- which when mowed looks mostly green...
 and  i want to seriously get at  delores closet-- which will be 75% of the hay loft--- we can leave 25% for hay/shavings.
********

and so it goes...
