Got two good emails this afternoon. Seems the film I shipped out yesterday arrived this afternoon (one day ahead of schedule). I love UPS! Mark fired off "the eagle has landed" message and also forwarded this link to a brilliant idea for my aquaponics experiment. http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-desert-lobster2-2009jul02,3,1969645.story How does Field Lab Desert Lobster sound?Also got an email from my new solar cooking hero Matt West with a link to his solar cooking experiments http://solarcooking.wikia.com/wiki/Matt_West I really like the idea of a solar fryer!
Benita came back in for a late afternoon snack and had a confrontation with an unwelcomed guest. I missed the shot of them locking horns but caught her chasing the intruder off. She is pretty particular about her dinner company.
Had an early dinner then sucked it up and hauled 4 more wheel barrow loads to finish filling the block walls. It's gonna take quite a bit of shoveling to empty out my sand catchment dam...I reckon some heavy equipment is gonna have to lend a hand.

Benita has the reach on her competition .......
Legally I guess you should be posting "Warning Guard Cow"
GO! LONGHORN!
John, you have spoiled her! You are HERS!
As for your "Sand Catcher", WHAT AN OPPORTUNITY ! Another chance for you to show your problem solving talents.
Good Luck
I just love Benita. What a great companion.
Benita is so great! Thanks for sharing.
I'm definitely saving up my money for a solar cooker. I just hope I have enough before it starts to cool off.
Hey John, I'll see you in a few days but until then if you find the time, check out http://ideasandopinions-rusty.blogspot.com/ Rusty
Who needs a guard dog when you have a guard longhorn, lol.
Clicked on the picture but it does not enlarge.
Thought she had a mild nature but when it comes to food nothing is written in stone. She is certainly guarding her rightful share.
Interesting and productive solution to the dam silting problem. Well done!
I think it's time we discuss something that is really one word: BOBCAT!
Excellent, excellent photo of Benita. That photo makes me think that it would make a great Remington painting. It captures the beauty and wide open spaces that make this part of Texas so mesmerizing.
My respect for you would quadruple if you had a use for the sand and planned the dam to collect it all along.
