Monday. I got up and fed the dogs. I picked up the house and then started freezing the corn. I worked on that until noon and then began canning the green beans. By the end of the day I will have put up around 300+ ears of corn and and 45+ quarts of beans.

Dusty worked around the barn rebuilding a partition between the stalls that Flash (his barrel horse) had kicked a hole in. The hole started out pretty small on Saturday but by the time Flash chewed on it, it was a huge hole that she could stick her head through. Dusty put up a double wall so maybe this will stop the destruction. After he got through with that, he went to get silage for the night. I fed and went ahead and put the horses up.

When Dusty got back, he went to the garden and picked more beans. Donny worked on breaking them when he got home. We had left overs tonight since the kitchen is full of canners and such.
