lightening

Holy doodle have we been entertained lately!  This part of Alberta seems to have an abundance of weather.  The lightening and thunder concert the other night was so powerful you could smell the air burning.  Our clothesline was melted  everywhere it contacted metal.  Fortunately nothing critical was damaged.  On another note, donkeys have been on our minds lately.  No real practical reason for us to have donkeys and not being a "pet" person I don't understand the need, however, suffice to say donkeys have been located and are being transplanted from a place no longer able to care for them and brought to our place next week.  Hmmm this means I have to scramble to put together tractor modifications for large round bale movement, complete the manufacture of a trailer for said round bales, locate a source of suitable round bales for donkey digestion.  Turns out donkeys don't like high protein food which is of course what I have easy access to!  And they say you have to join the military to have "no life like it".  At least the waterer is working, now if I can just solve the occasional sediment problem in the well water.
