Larsen Poultry Ranch - homesteading journey

We had Coast Live Oaks back a hundred years ago when we were younger.
They have a different silhouette but similar leaves. That's the first I've heard of interior Live Oak.
What a shame they let their horses damage them.

Miss @Baymule, you should post a link to those posts. I remember reading those posts and was really impressed with your work!

I got the kitchen and dining area done. Had to go from living room into the kitchen, then from living room into the dining area and meet at the end of the bar, fingers crossed that it would meet up and match up. it did! I got the hallway done and several courses into one of the bedrooms. Lots of...

Gorgeous floors! We went with really thick laminate, to help give the structure more stability per husband. We are planning to remodel within a couple years so we didn't want to go too fancy.

Once we get the master bedroom floor done, we can move in there and get better organized. Then change out the fireplace surround and gradually change the flooring in the rest of the house. We also want to redo the kitchen layout, hopefully before doing the floors there.

Thanks! It was a lot of work, but so worth it. We bid on a HUD repo doublewide with 8 acres and moved from a 2500 square foot brick home. LOL I was trying to make it a little less mobile home-ish.

I think we might have two kinds of live oaks, there's some leaves with serrated edges and some with smooth. Different acorns too, one is small and the others I just found are huge. I'm going to try to start a bunch of the acorns overwinter. I grabbed some from my mom's tree too.

These are from mom's house, I got a small handful of acorns.

Rabbit zone in progress. Plants in pots will go in this zone too.

I would have never identified that first tree as an oak, I only know the oak leaf shape of the second. Those are some LONG acorns on the first one.

The leaves on the first oak looked like a Holly tree until I saw the acorn, that was weird looking too! LOL

So, the lady that bought my first house just listed it for rent on a FB community page that I'm a member of, for over $500 more than I had been paying for the mortgage when I owned it. I'm not sure how I should feel about that.

Ignore it and pretend I didn't see it?
