Fence Repairs

The dirt work for our new hoop building was completed on Thursday. During the construction the contractor was pulling a pan to scrape up clay from one part of the farm and move it to the construction site and they hit a cattle gate which pulled down the post and and destroyed the gate. So today's work will be to go to town to buy a new gate and to fix all of the fences. The other issue with the fence is that the pan hung too low some times and broke the wires that run underground between the gates to feed electric past the gate openings. These have to be dug by hand and have new wires put back in. Since bulldozers and giant equipment were running back and forth through the gates, digging the wires in should be a chore, but hopefully we get it done before the rain comes that they are calling for today.
