Yesterday afternoon, we heard
a strange motor running and it sounded like it was on the back of our property.
I took a little walk and my son was
running a big ole gasoline weed-eater trimming up around his place. He said he would be up to see me later. We haven’t seen him for quite a spell. He also said that his girl friend’s son was
cutting my front lot with my son’s riding mower. My wife and I figured if they all came to
visit it would be better to go out and sit and visit in the motor-home so our
dogs wouldn’t be a bother. We hardly
ever get company so our dogs are not used to other people being around and it
takes them a while to settle down. As it
turned out we made the right decision since my son’s friend’s son had his wife
and 9 month old baby with them. They had
come from California
for a visit. Nice, friendly family.
They cut all around the front
of my place. That was sure a pleasant surprise
and believe me, I sure did appreciate it.
They told me that there were some new signs of feral pigs being inside
my son’s fence rooting under the rabbit cages. (My son raises show rabbits) I will have to be on the look out for it or
them, think I will do away with any new pigs taking up residence on my place,
unless they start paying rent (grin). They
do a lot of damage and are dangerous, especially to our little dogs. Planting a garden is impossible with them
around; well that is the best excuse I can come up with right now for not
wanting to plant a garden. A back up
excuse is that we may be out on the road with the RV when things need picked or
tended to in the garden.
You all have great day now,
you hear? And don’t fall for any April
fool jokes or pranks.
Glad you are taking a serious route on the wild pigs.
ReplyDeleteAnd if I'm reading this right, you turned your castle on wheels into a guest house? or rather a large extended den/meeting room?
Shoot you just as well put it up on jack stands and remove the new tires and store them out of the sun to preserve them. :-)
DD i know your son has property next to you, but does he live there?
ReplyDeleteWhen are we leaving?
Ben, I may just do that, but first I have a few more things to get done to it. Then we may head out somewhere.
ReplyDeleteTrouble, he lives there some of the time. He does not own the property but has a mobile home there. He also put in his own syptic system.
