How ya was?

Quote: Not surprisingly, that's what's known as Rotational Grazing, Benny. It was instituted many, many moons ago, in, I believe, New Zealand, for sheep. Works great for grazing animals; not so much for browsers. I tried it several years ago for goats; gave it up.
I assume it was some intensive labor to change the lots every several weeks!
More like every few days, depending on the number of animals. You can put more animals in a given space than it could normally carry with conventional grazing methods. Fortunately, once the stock gets used to the routine, they'll go through the open gate to the next pasture w/o a lot of hassle.

Quote: Good to hear. I think I had posted this before, but I had a really bad bad sprain that took a long time to heal. I did my rehab by hiking with poles 9had never used them before) - the hiking (over rocky terrain) made sure I got my proprioception back, and the poles were a huge help in confidence and balance. They do take a bit to get used to, but you'll get the hang of them - if you're able, do a few day hikes on rough terrain with them before hand to get the hang of it. Definitely a good thing to have.

Ugh, the janitor at the school unplugged my incubator yesterday afternoon and did not plug it back in.

They were unplugged roughly around 3:30pm, and my daughter went in to check water levels before school and noticed it was cold around 7:30 this morning. Ugh - 16 hours. I know it's possible they survived, hoping for the best. Going to go up and check for movement tonight after work.

(At the hospital once a janitor unplugged one of the instruments running overnight so he could clean the floors using that plug. Delayed patient results and > $3,000 of test reagents down the drain.
