Power Post Driver

Ben finally got his back scratcher installed today.  Only took a couple of minutes to drive a 2 1/2" pipe three feet into the ground.  Thanks to Joe and Julie Stovell (Ben's feed supplier) and their daughter Jaelyn Blackwell for coming out to visit today and get the job done easily with the amazing power post driver.
Now I just have to teach Ben how to use it...  49,58,29,0,B

Rabbits having dinner.  Over the years, my desert cottontail population has grown to about 50 individuals.  They know they have plenty to eat and drink here and are relatively safe from predators.  Although they are fairly tame, they aren't quite up for hug...yet.  They eat Ben's leftover alfalfa and range cubes as well as a nightly serving of rabbit chow and a couple of carrots.  This meal was served on a luncheon plate from my mothers set of Haviland china that I inherited.  Limoges Chrysanthemum pattern - Schleiger #86.  News Theme by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...)

line holders...

So the tricky contest was all about line holders for my paramotor.  When the wing is laid out behind a paramotor trike,  the lines need to run up by the cage in order to keep them from getting run over by the back wheels.  So now you know..."the rest of the story".  Looks like the winds will finally calm down enough by next week so I can try some taxiing with the rig and the wing.  54,62,43,0,W

Another load and another stuck goat (in the exact spot he got stuck once before).  Now I am systematically wiring off the sections he keeps getting stuck in.  Good news is, with this load of hay I have plenty of extra baling wire. (Funny thing is...every time I find him stuck, I forget to turn off the hot wire first and end up getting shocked.  Maybe we will both learn someday.)

And the winner is...?  THORNWALKER of course - although he wasn't entirely correct.  These are line holders for all the lines - not just the A lines.  But he got bonus points for recognizing that the pieces will have to be opened up into a U shape.  Photo of the installation coming soon... 73,83,56,0,W

CONTEST!

First person to correctly guess what this is all about gets a "Ben in the fog" postcard.  Good luck - this one is really tricky.  68,79,33,0,W
