a work in progress

Just like the construction of The Field Lab...and the healing of a broken leg...my walk with Christ is all about patience for a work in progress - in a culture that does not appreciate process but only longs for conclusion.  Ecclesiastes 3:9 What do people really get for all their hard work? 10 I have seen the burden God has placed on us all. 11 Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time.  He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God's work from beginning to end.

glassworks

Started working on cleaning the oven window...homemade double pane of two 1/4" thick slabs of tempered glass with a 3/4" air gap in between them.  I have to say that the aluminum tape that fixes the panes in place holds up really well to high heat and weather.  67,89,57,0,B

weathered...

Found a gallon of waterproofing sealant when I was cleaning up the greenhouse.  Figured I'd slap a couple of coats on the solar oven rather than replace the exterior surfaces  Except for the face of the door which I did replace, the OSB has held up pretty well considering it has been out in the elements for so long..  83,90,48,0,B

a new tip to tip...

Been 15 months since I have cuddled with Ben out in the pen.  I have been a little apprehensive to start again since he is quite a bit bigger now.  Finally ventured out and discovered he still loves me as much as he did 300 pounds ago.  Catching him during a cud chewing session when he is down works just fine since he is sort of in a trance.  Not quite up to running away from him yet if he is up and about out there - he used to like to chase me.  He even let me get a new horn measurement... 65 1/8" - and was able to get some overdue hoof clipping done.  His horns have curved up a lot since December 2014.  73,96,54,0,B
