I have to do what I can with what I have ... my hay wagon is not ready yet so the ram has to step up to the task.

It's been a busy end of summer, I finish the winter paddock and installed the two gats, built the hay feeder, disk 5 acres in order to seed next year, set up a tack room and a area for tacking up two horses in the old barn, set up water for the winter and insulate their water tub, mow the pipe line to keep the invasive species at bay, made a new trail in the bush, cleared the rest of the trails for winter and I am probably missing some.

Snow has arrive, I got all my trails open for the winter and also I managed to pass the drag in them, (I got a few solid stop on a few stumps ouch) I had to walk most of my trails we got some wet and heavy snow and everything was cave in towards the trail it was lots of work this year. I also made a new loop.

Nice Mr. Rockbadchild, there's something comforting when you start to see the results of your effort on your own land...

Thank you, I don't mind the winter it has it's perks other then the obvious like sledding we have no tornado, hurricane, snakes or venomous spiders and no bugs during that time out here in the summers it can be pretty miserable espicially June the bugs (mosquitos & black fly) are out of this world you can't enter the forest during that time unless you want to be eating alive.
