Granny's gone and done it again

pretty much other then in town or along waterways (which are also rare)
But, but but .... what about the Black Forest? Oh wait. That's in South Dakota, isn't it? Well shoot. Of all the states I've been in, Twist, I think I've missed yours!
 
well trying to fix the shut off valve was sort of a bust.

Picture this.

Me with 2 five gallon buckets and a foot in each one (with shoes and barely wedged in) top third of my body and arms completely inside the large pvc pipe cursing and praying that I don't drop a tool as it will never be seen again.

Erv got the giggles, that a 6 ft tall man could actually stand inside said buckets.

got it sort of apart and then off to town , 35 miles on way. Menard's was out of 3/4 inch shut off valves like I needed. So another stop then stopped at motel to get a couple different tools. NO water for a animals since last night OTHER then what was in the creek and stock tanks, Yaks were fine but those poor chickens. Had to take the valve apart and things were looking up BUT OH NO I can't get the new valve threaded back on. So put the old valve on run up turned on the well and watered all the chickens, went back down and "giggled" the valve handle and for the most part the water has stopped in the one tire stock tank. GOOD THE FARK ENOUGH !!!! was 95* and I was shot. I really don't need this tank until about August when I separate out the golden bull and my 5 home raised/bred cows/heifers. Brought in eggs 7 days and about 30 dozen eggs HUMMM the week I was driving out and doing them I averaged 7 dozen a day. SO Rod some how has managed to cut production down of 12 dozen eggs a week. NOT AMUSED !!!

Been going since 6:30 am and my hamstrings are NOT amused either.

you mean the Black Hills where Mount Rushmore and the Crazy Horse monument are located. About 250-300 miles south of me.

Good night Twist. You know it's not healthy eating one meal a day.
