Relative Something

Asher is home with a dog sitter and we are up in Princeton visiting George and Anneliese and getting a chance to spend some time sharing fencing chores, good food, and fun games.

Cattle grazing is on some leased land where temporary fencing is installed to allow moving the herd frequently for maximum health of land and animals. We tagged along and helped a little to run a new line encircling a fresh plot of grass.

We got a close look at what weed control via goats looks like.

I was most impressed by the way the goats tip down tall young saplings so that others can reach the leaves which sets off a feeding frenzy.

In the evening after dinner with George’s parents, we were introduced to the yard game, Kubb.

The turf of the playing field provided a vivid example of the drought conditions area farmers are enduring.

Coping with weather extremes is not for the faint of heart.
