Morning Pete, sounds like your having fun. How about all this rain? Not many blackflies at my house yet. As I was driving past my field yesterday I must of had that better get the brush hog out look on my face. My wife said,"I know what your thinking and it's not time yet!!!!." Leave it to women to be mind readers too!!!! Nothing like a little brush hogging to make my day!!!!/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif
How's the pack doing? Finally went and had the Golden groomed. Looks nice!
Take care

Of course they have a very important purpose. SEAT TIME.

Hey Al! The blackflies are heck here! I finally broke down and started wearing one of those hats with mesh hanging down. I feel like a dork, but it sure works well!

Finally took the backhoe off this weekend. Unfortunately, the ground stayed level only about an hour; after that it sort of sagged down till the hoe took a five degree list to port. Will probably have a hard time remounting it for the first time. Trying to convince Ed Corm and Holly to come down for a visit, but I think he suspects I want an experienced hand available while I try to remount the Woods. /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Anyway, I put the mower on yesterday and mowed the entire meadow in the afternoon. Got the rake mounted now, but next weekend I'll probably be winching more logs into a dry and airy spot for seasoning. Sure do love weekends with Clementine!

Forgot that you asked about the pack. All four are fine, though it looks like we might be getting a pup out of a Tennesee puppy mill. 6 months old, lice infested, never seen the sun, never rolled in grass...spent its entire life in a cage. Beats me how people can do that to a dog, but glad that we're equipped to turn them around. Depending on whether or not there was any physical abuse, we ought to have this little fellow ready to place in a permanent home in 2-3 months. Double that if he was beaten.

Our four goldens seem to have a knack for dealing with this sort of dog. Tam and I get the credit for rehabilitating them, but our dogs actually do most of the work.
