Just got back from the Monday morning water run. Sideways, mostly.
The bad news is that there’s still lots of snow to melt. The good news is we’re due for a great walloping windstorm this afternoon, which usually helps with the mud. The next bad news is it’s supposed to rain in the morning.
The only certainty is that the mud’s going to be epic. I’m staying in this afternoon, to the greatest extent practical.
While I was out I had to buy a new broom, because…
I broke the one I’ve had for over 10 years. Thought it would be easier to use that rather than a shovel to beat the underside of the chickens’ top cover yesterday. Didn’t consider whether the cheap handle would bear the repeated impacts. Oh well – I’ve kind of wanted a Jeep broom anyway…
Plenny o life left in that broom – a hacksaw, a dowel, some epoxy (and a warm room for it to cure in) and you have TWO brooms.
Actually, he STILL has two brooms, exactly as it currently stands. One for home, and one for the Jeep!
