yesterday's work was very productive as 3 men took out the cattle corrals and a section of old perimeter fencing (the new perimeter fencing was completed last month, but the old section was still in need of taking down so the kids and I helped take off t-post clips and roll up the fencing while the stronger guys pulled up the t-posts and one on a tractor pulled up corrals and any posts too stubborn to pull by hand.)
I've wanted this done for a while. When we bought this place the 2nd owner back had been a welder and had collected a lot of scrap metal, the previous owners cleaned up some and then we also had a man come haul off a LOT of remaining odds and ends metal. Now with just another couple hours work, there will be 3 nice sized and now beautiful clean pastures to rotate my sheep through. We have one small section of fenceline that we still need to move, but for now the fencelines are much cleaner and the sheep aren't down at the neighbors every other day where they feed their cattle!
