We're gonna have to come see you and make all the appropriate admiring noises over your fencing and kids! Getting fencing done is HUGE and it feels so darn good to get it done. Every post put in place is a victory. Hanging a gate is cause for celebration. Congrats on all the hard work you are doing. Being able to turn the goats out to graze will be wonderful.

So glad that it wasn't costly to ya....know it was a bit of an anxious moment as ya investigated. Sounds like the fencing is going well for ya and hope ya can get it secured before the weather rolls in....I keep hoping to get some cutting done, but the fields are still holding water....guess I'll have to develope a hover mower to cut some of it.....:).....those ribs sound :drool

Just drag it along Joe.

fractured left radius near my wrist over the weekend. Fracture is at the very top left.
Aside from a broken big toe 2 decades ago, this is the first fracture I've ever had.

Sorting mommas from calves in an alley leading to the headgate, went to open a 3' wide 3-way sort gate and one of the mommas tried to force her way thru the same gate her calf went and I got my forearm squeezed between the gate and stanchion. Bone doesn't pain me much but the blood pooling is a bother. Not much can be done with it so it will have to heal on it's own.

They could have, but they said for this particular fracture, a cast wouldn't do anything a steel plate embedded in a good brace won't do.
And i can have lots more mobility with the brace than with a cast, especially in wet environments.
It'll heal...or it won't.
