Sunday. No sleep last night. One of the dogs had an upset stomach and I was up and down letting him in and out. Donny left early to check on the hay at the hayfield and pick up hay and silage for the day. Dusty and Tony slept in a bit.

The geese have figured out where the pools are and are making the trek by themselves. I will get a hutch in a day or two so that they will have some shelter. Donny put Emma Lee and Kodiak outside in a pen for the day. I am going to have to splint Kodiaks legs so that he will walk on them instead of going around on his knees. I will give him some Selenium today too.

Dusty fed the horses and let them out for the day. Hopefully it won't rain since we do have the hay down. We sat outside in the swing and kept an eye on Kodiak after the splints went on. He doesn't like them and will fall over on his side.

After lunch, I went out and mowed the grass. I will save the push mowing until the morning when it is under 90 degrees. George came down with his tractor and helped Donny and Dusty get the tennis shoes off the power line that Tony threw up there on a dare. They finally got them down after a week.

Donny and Dusty went to get the hay rake hooked up so that it will be ready to go in the morning. Rain is supposed to be coming in around Tuesday so we have to get the hay up tomorrow.
