Yes, you guys were super busy. That no-more pool area looks wonderful! Is is yard or pasture?

Turkeys....hmmmmm ;)
Where the pool was is right out in our backyard. I think I want to build my agility course there after winter. Its plenty big enough :)

Here are todays photos. The fencing is quite finished. We ran out of metal clips so Drew is picking up more today.

Looks great! The supervisor had that well in hand. I am sure he will give himself a bonus for the good work.

How are you going to get your agility area back from the animals?? :cool:
Looks like more fencing is in your future!

Here is my yard (was taking award photos, the 1st picture I came to that showed most of it). It's bordered on one side by my garage, and another side by sheep pasture, then the fruit trees.

You guys did a great job. :) The difference is amazing!

I will probably put it in the backyard (where the pool was), it is fence separately from the pasture area. Its about 50'x70', very rough guesstimate. It might be tight but should be fun anyway :) The goats and horse don't have access to it. The chickens aren't suppose to but they get through anyway :p. Yours looks so professional! I can't wait until our ground looks green again. Its so brown now.

Don't worry, ours is really brown too. This picture was from 2 summers ago...before our drought. Small wonder I have no pictures really from this summer. They all would look like crap :(
Our chickens are out there too, and I also tether our llamas out there for a little grazing, but mostly to do halter work, grooming, etc.
The llama part worked out well actually. When we did lure coursing, the space doubles as pasture for the owner's llamas. Many dogs came off the lure to either eat or roll in the llama poo :p, but not my dogs! They are used to it and ignore it. :)

You do lure coursing? How cool! We have greyhounds but they are lazy track rescues, retired to a life of sleeping on the couch.

I can't wait until the rain is done and we can finish the ground. We will be scraping, seeding, disking, and irrigating it in the summer. The pasture will be split into two so I can rotate grazing.

Speaking of rain...more storms rolled in and the ducks are very happy again.
