Best laid plans

Well we had a good weekend. We were planning to go camping on Saturday and Come back Sunday after meeting up with Jed and Teressa but Casey worked on a drainage system for the goat water and his back hurt from digging the trench so we didn't think that it would be good to have him sleep on the ground. We are still going down to see Jed and Teressa and Mom and Dad today. When I woke up this morning it had been raining so I am glad that we didn't go. I guess that it all worked out.

Casey put in a drainage system for the goats on Friday. Here are some picture of the drainage system that Casey did. His idea was to have water contently pouring into a bowl for the goats, then he put a pipe in the middle of the bowl so when it reached a certain height then it will drain out. So he dug a trench from the stable to the pasture so all the extra water will help water it.

Here is the water bowl, he used an old green one because he didn't want to ruin the blue one in case it didn't work.


Here is the trench


It works really good and it is really nice. He did a good job. It will be really nice for the goats. Well I guess that we are all getting rained on. Stay dry and have a good day
