Hartung Farm sale

houshold items not very interesting

but selling the farm drew a crowd

when you start bidding at 2 million there are not many bidders

and sold for 2.5 (not to us)

On Friday we did 3rd cut

Elora camping

Hariston Home Painting

we painted some trim

supervised by Emily 

and the doors for the first coat

this is Brandon & Karissa's home

Both are quite handy and were their own contractors

but family help is good

Gwen made a delicious lunch

the floor was still dusty

unloading Straw

unloading the last 2 loads

growing muscles 

It's warm and sweaty

new Straw

Most of the straw we use is big bales

Getting ready for the small bales

we need 3 wagons

first one done

Marc's friend Noah helped out

the 2 boys went to unload 

and I got drafted into driving the tractor with the baler

water and cold juice

the clouds are active

one m,ore load

they just pushed the last load inside and it rained hard

Making room for Straw

bales from the William's Farm

Filling up the Straw loft with last year's straw
