Homestead updates

Little homestead update, tractors are still in progress – photos of those later this week.

We are racing the south’s summer heat, every weekend is a work weekend until we can work no more.

Landscaping on side of the house – pavers need a little leveling out but otherwise, hooray, this is done finally.

Of course the porch in the top photo, no longer looks anything like that at all as we re-did everything and expanded the porch to 2x it’s size. Still waiting for good weather to completely paint it with a light brown deck-over paint.

Chicken coop construction still going, it takes a surprisingly long time to place hardware cloth properly. We used 1/4″ hardware cloth all along the bottom. Hex poultry netting to go around the entire structure, and criss-cross of wire on the top for hawk protection.

Clay making adjustments to the hardware cloth, Luke harassing him endlessly to play with his ball. Ball is life.
