Yesterday we had our 3rd annual Labor Day BBQ. We had some neighbors and some friends and a lot of food. We ended the evening with a bonfire...it was a much bigger bonfire than Michael has ever built, and I was a bit nervous about the whole thing (nothing unusual for me). This morning, Michael slept in, and I went out to feed the animals a bit later than usual, since I was having a lazy sunday morning. When I let the girls out, I noticed smoke, and thought it strange, so I followed the smoke and found that the bales of woodpulp that were stacked near the haybarn were on fire! I got the hose, started water on the pile, ran to the house, yelled "Michael I need you outside NOW" and ran back outside. We were able to put out the fire without too much trouble, but it was really scary. The wood pulp bales belong to some people that rent out some of our land to store their hydroseeder and ancillary equipment. I made Michael call them to tell them we burned up their bales.
We are very, very lucky. I'm not so certain I'm going to permit bonfires anymore.
8 eggs today (and 7 yesterday and 7 the day before)
