Fall garden prepping
Mom and Dad came over today to give us a hand prepping the gardens for next spring.
We got the herb beds cleaned out (they had gotten overrun with weeds - totally my fault). I've planted garlic in one bed and my pitiful potted comfrey planted in the small herb bed.
We also got Pat and Brian's yard tilled, leveled, fertilized and grass seed planted.
Buttercup was acting odd today - dancing around and shying away a lot - I bet she goes into heat tomorrow. Dangit!
I'd also finally had enough of one particular goat getting his head stuck in the fence, so I duct-taped a piece of PVC pipe to his horns. Now he can't stick his head through at all. HA!
We found a decapitated Muscovy duck up by the small pond. I'm not sure what got him, probably a raccoon or owl from what I'm reading. We set some live traps. Craig has never seen a live raccoon, so I'm hoping we catch him.
