2014 year of the ranch

plan on getting my acres all fenced in this year and start building my permanent cabin in montello. I've started taking pilot lessons and may install a runway on the property. it'll make moving and getting supplies easier to my land.

lost chickens

if anyone in the desert spots 50 chickens, please let me know. they escaped today and I can't find them on my 20 acres anywhere..

update

I'm so enjoying life here in the high desert. I've learned alot and I have alot to learn. I've learned roulette in west Wendover. if you bid on black or red, you have a 50/50 shot to double your money. it's a game of chance but it's also a game of odds. if it lands on black 3 times the chances are high it's gonna land on red next. well back to the ranch I head. $100 richer then when I left.

2 new ducks out of 48

Finally Arrived

Just arrived Sunday with all the animals in tow. installed a 200 by 200 fence for all the animals. going to separate them into various pens next week. the Wendover feed store is out of business going to have to find a new one pretty soon.

new farming truck

bought a 93 diesel ford f350 crew cab with a flat bed on the back. it has a gooseneck trailer attachment, towing package and dual rear wheels. was a steal of a deal.. came with 2 fuel tanks full of diesel too. has custom made bed rails that the Amish made. going to extend them up to contain my goats and mini horse on trip to nevada. I found a gooseneck trailer for $75 if I haul it out this guys land tomorrow. it's a 32 foot camper. will use it for animal shelter once I get to Montello.
