Still Fencing

Yep we are still in the process of getting our fence built around here. The guys from Wagoner Fencing are doing a bang up job and I am thinking we will be ready for stock in here early next week. A little early as we probably won’t bring the ponies down until next November but Meg will like having the place all to herself. She is pretty good about not wandering off although she has gone to visit the neighbours when they are having a campfire in the evening.

Last night we were over to the McNivens, folks who sold us Dogpound South, for dinner last night with a bunch of their friends from back in Canada. Always nice to meet new friends from home.

Today was a Wal-Mart day as we had to reprovision the rig so that I am prepared for Brenda’s departure on Saturday. She is heading home for 2-3 weeks to see her daughters and help Lacey with Ella after her operation. Long time readers will recall that Ella has had an issue with her kidneys since before birth and although they did an operation when she was five months old it appears that another is required. Originally the operation was scheduled for March 1st hence the departure on Saturday but it has been postponed till March 8th so Brenda will get a little longer to visit the girls and Ella before the hospital visit. We are not sure when she will be back but are hoping for a quick recovery so that she has Ella back on her feet soon
